More about Hamid
- 17 years' experience
- Male
- NCPS
For nearly two decades, I value providing a kind, compassionate, supportive experience and treating everyone with respect.
I use the principles of Metacognitive Therapy (MCT), Dialectical behaviour therapy (DBT), Motivational Interviewing for Addiction, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and CBT as my integrative approach to helping my clients.
I use Systematic Couple Therapy to help families and couples address their issues. This therapeutic approach is grounded in the understanding that the quality of relationships within a couple or family significantly influences individual well-being and mental health. By focusing on the interactions and communication patterns between partners or family members, Systematic Couple Therapy aims to identify and modify dysfunctional behaviours and dynamics.
I offer Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, which is a short-term goal-focused therapeutic approach to anyone looking to improve their mental health and well-being with tools and techniques. My vision is to use my skills and professional training to tailor a treatment for my client's needs effectively.

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.
