More about Arham
- 4 years' experience
- Female
- BACP
With several years of experience as a mental health counsellor, I bring expertise in Integrative Psychotherapy to my practice, tailored to address a diverse array of mental health challenges and traumas. Specializing in areas such as Child Sexual Abuse, domestic abuse, and others, I've assisted clients dealing with anxiety, depression, loss, isolation, and various forms of trauma. My personal background within a complex cultural framework enables me to connect empathetically with the culturally intricate and diverse issues that my clients encounter.
My therapeutic approach is deeply relational, drawing from evidence-based and trauma-informed modalities tailored to suit individual needs. I firmly believe in the transformative power of the therapeutic relationship, cultivating an open and non-judgmental space where clients feel safe to express their thoughts and emotions.
In therapy, I adopt an integrative style that considers both mind and body processes, exploring how early relationship dynamics shape present experiences. This journey of self-awareness and transformation emphasizes clients' strengths and resilience in overcoming challenges.
Therapy, for me, is a collaborative journey, characterized by mutual respect and shared responsibility. Placing utmost importance on the client's needs and goals, I prioritize a client-centred approach, ensuring that therapy remains focused on their unique journey towards healing and growth.
If you're considering embarking on this therapeutic journey, I extend a warm welcome. Taking that initial step towards therapy requires courage, and I commend you for taking it. Together, we will work towards achieving your goals. If you are considering therapy, I warmly invite you to take that first step, and I look forward to accompanying you on your path towards healing and well-being.

About online counseling

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

I can't recommend Arham Abtahi enough! She has been instrumental in helping me navigate some of the most challenging aspects of my life, including managing depression, setting healthy boundaries, and addressing deep-seated family issues. Her empathetic and insightful approach has given me the tools to better understand myself and make meaningful changes in my life. Each session with her feels safe and supportive, allowing me to open up and work through my concerns in a way I never thought possible. I'm incredibly grateful for her guidance and highly recommend her to anyone seeking compassionate and effective therapy.
I feel very happy with my therapist
I've had one session with Arham and she was very respectful and very reassuring. Arham made me feel very calm throughout the session.
Arham makes me feel so relaxed and calm. I was very apprehensive about starting therapy and wasn’t too sure if it was even going to be beneficial. Within the first couple of sessions I was already starting to recognise things and Arham gave a great balance of listening and input. I was matched perfectly and I have benefited greatly from it.
Very thorough, respectful and understand my cultural background. Highly recommended
Arham is very a lovely therapist, she's very real, listens extremely well, and gives good support when needed. I would recommend her 10/10 :)
I’ve been so very lucky to be blessed with an excellent listener from the first day. Arham has heard my deepest feelings and life stories and has been consistently supportive and helpful through it all. I’ve have grown with her help and judgement-free guidance. I highly recommend Arham Abtahi as a caring, open, compassionate and professional therapist. Thank you dear soul!
She is so great, she listens, she allows you to speak before her, and is really easy to open up to.
She’s such a sweet and good at listening person. She helped me to have another view and how to face my traumatic experience.
She's extremely understanding and kind.
I'm new to better help but not to therapy. I have found Arham to be easy to confide in and trust. She gives me the space to explore my own feelings on my wellbeing and some good ideas for communication. Thanks Arham for listening.
