About Mahin

Mahin Hamidi is an integrative therapist and a registered member of the BACP, the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, the UK professional body for counsellors and psychotherapists. She blends a range of therapeutic theories and techniques to provide personalised care, drawing on cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), psychodynamic perspectives, gestalt work, person-centred approaches, and compassion-focused methods while attending carefully to life context and the many layers that shape a person’s experience.

Mahin has worked with people facing stress, anxiety, dissociation, obsessive-compulsive patterns, autism-related challenges, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse including childhood trauma, and the process of coping with grief and loss. She also supports clients navigating broader life transitions - issues of acceptance, control, and finding balance among competing demands. Mahin works from the belief that each person is the expert on their own story and that existing strengths can be mobilised to support change.

Seeking therapy takes courage, and Mahin aims to offer support and empowerment throughout that journey, helping clients explore their experiences, build understanding, and move toward a more fulfilling life.

Integrative therapeutic approaches for online support

Mahin Hamidi commonly draws on cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and attachment-based and client-centred ideas in her online practice. CBT focuses on identifying patterns of thinking and behaviour that contribute to distress and then developing practical strategies to address them - it is often used for anxiety, stress, low mood, and unhelpful coping habits. Attachment-based therapy explores how early relationships influence current patterns in close relationships and emotional responses, helping clients work through issues like abandonment, trust, and intimacy. Client-centred therapy emphasises a respectful, non-judgemental relationship in which the client’s perspective leads the work, supporting self-understanding and personal growth.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Mahin Hamidi, as a registered practitioner, collaborates with each person to determine which methods best suit their needs, goals, and preferences, and adapts the work over time as those needs evolve. This collaborative stance helps ensure that therapy feels relevant and achievable.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can take place by video call or phone, and shorter exchanges are available through live chat or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit support into busy lives, maintain continuity of care during transitions, and access registered professionals from different locations while working toward the client’s goals.
