About Mahin
Mahin Hamidi is a counsellor and a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). She brings five years of practice to conversations about stress, anxiety, trauma and relationship concerns. Her approach aims to make therapy feel straightforward and useful for people under pressure.
Mahin blends several talking therapies to suit each person. She uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy alongside acceptance and commitment and attachment-based ideas when these fit the problem.
Background and approach
Cognitive behavioural techniques and client-centred ways of working also appear when practical tools or space to be heard are needed. Sessions focus on understanding how past experiences and current pressures interact. Mahin helps people notice patterns such as avoidance, dissociation or control issues and then try different ways of responding.
She pays attention to attachment and abandonment themes when they affect close relationships or sense of self. Common issues she supports include grief, eating and body image concerns, addiction-related struggles, anger, self-esteem and compassion fatigue. She also works with people who have autism or Asperger Syndrome and those managing co-morbidity or overlapping challenges.
Therapy is collaborative and paced to each person. Practical exercises, reflective conversation and clearer ways to manage difficult moments are used to build new options. Sessions are offered in English and take place online by video, phone, chat or messaging.

Online support
Remote approaches that focus on emotion and values
Emotionally-Focused Therapy aims to help people notice and work with strong feelings, especially in moments that affect close relationships and self-worth. It can be useful for people dealing with attachment wounds, abandonment fears or recurring patterns in how they connect with others.Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) teaches practical ways to live with difficult thoughts while committing to meaningful action. It works well when stress, anxiety or avoidance stop someone doing things that matter to them.
Attachment-Based Therapy concentrates on how early relationships shape current emotions and reactions. This approach helps when issues like codependency, trust or closeness create repeated conflicts or distress.
Choosing the right method is part of the work. The counsellor will talk with each person about their needs, goals and preferences and then try approaches together to see what helps. This is a collaborative process that can shift over time as progress is made.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to fit different routines. Video works well for deeper conversations, phone can suit lower bandwidth or a quicker check-in, and live chat or messaging is useful for short updates or people who prefer written communication. These options make it easier to keep therapy going around work, family and everyday life.
