About Farhat
Her background includes an Educational Specialist degree in Counseling from Mississippi State University and a Master of Education in Counseling from the University of Mississippi. She has worked in hospitals, schools, rehabilitation centers, clinics, residential drug programs, and group homes. That variety informs a down-to-earth approach to problems big and small.
Farhat helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and life changes. She also supports those coping with ADHD, addictions, trauma and abuse, grief, relationship and intimacy concerns, parenting strain, sleep and eating difficulties, and career stress. She draws on several therapeutic approaches to fit the person rather than forcing a single method.
In sessions she prioritizes listening and validation while encouraging insight and small, practical changes. She offers guidance and gentle challenge so clients can test new ways of dealing with problems. Progress is tracked so plans can be adjusted over time.
Farhat welcomes people from diverse backgrounds, including international clients, and uses straightforward language in therapy. If someone decides to begin, she asks them to complete a brief matching questionnaire and schedule according to availability.

How approach and online care can work together
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current ways of relating. It helps people who feel stuck in repeating patterns with others and works on building more secure ways of connecting. Client-Centered Therapy centers the person's experience by offering nonjudgmental listening and support so clients can find their own answers and make changes at their own pace. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact; it is useful for anxiety, depression, and practical problems because it breaks issues into manageable steps.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust them based on progress and feedback.
Farhat has experience providing both in-person and online care in her career, but current session formats should be confirmed before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counseling into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and avoid travel time. Many people find that working remotely lets them continue help across locations, including international arrangements, while keeping therapy practical and focused on everyday life.
