About Arham

Arham Abtahi is a counsellor who blends trauma-focused work with relational and client-centred approaches. She draws on six years of experience to help people manage anxiety, depression, stress and the effects of abuse and other traumatic events. Her practice aims to make therapy straightforward and practical for people who are worried or overwhelmed.

Arham uses an integrative style that brings together attachment-informed ideas and mindfulness techniques. She pays attention to how early relationships shape current feelings and patterns.

Background and approach

Sessions look at both emotional experience and everyday behaviour so people can make change that fits their life. Her background includes work with loss, grief, family problems and relationship concerns. She also focuses on issues such as abandonment, attachment difficulties, dissociation and body image, alongside anger, intimacy issues and career-related stress.

This range means she can respond to many common struggles people bring. Arham aims for a warm, non-judgemental space where the therapeutic relationship matters. She invites people to set clear goals and takes a collaborative approach to meeting them.

The work is paced to each person's readiness and needs. Based in the United Kingdom, Arham works with clients in English and accepts international clients. Her practice combines practical tools with reflective conversation so people can build resilience and clearer ways of relating to themselves and others.

How attachment and trauma approaches work online

Arham uses trauma-focused ideas and attachment-based work alongside client-centred listening. Trauma-focused therapy looks at how distressing events affect feelings and behaviour, and helps people find ways to cope and process those memories. Attachment-based therapy examines early relationship patterns to understand current reactions and to build more supported ways of relating. Client-centred therapy prioritises the person's perspective, offering a non-judgemental space where the therapist follows the client's pace and priorities.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Arham treats therapy as a collaboration and will discuss which methods fit your needs, goals and preferences. Together you can try different ways of working and adjust the plan as you learn what helps most.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when that suits you. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit into a short break. Live chat and messaging make it easier to check in between sessions or to work when you prefer not to be on camera. These options give flexibility so therapy can fit around work, family and travel commitments while keeping the focus on meaningful progress.
