About Robert

Robert Karami is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who supports people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, depression, and major life changes. He works with those experiencing panic disorder and panic attacks as one of the areas of focus. He aims to create a calm, respectful space where clients can talk through what feels overwhelming and find practical ways to cope.

Robert uses simple, direct ways to help people make sense of difficult feelings. Sessions often centre on noticing patterns, practising new responses, and setting realistic day-to-day goals that fit each person’s life. He combines reflective listening with structured techniques to help reduce distress and build resilience.

His approach draws on several methods, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Client-Centred Therapy. He also integrates ideas from psychodynamic and existential work when they help a person understand deeper patterns in their life.

Robert holds BACP, which is listed as his professional credential, and he has four years of clinical experience. He is fluent in English and Persian and brings sensitivity to cultural background when that matters to a client’s concerns.

To begin, people are asked to use the site’s Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and then schedule sessions according to availability. The practice uses a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time, with fees that vary by location and therapist availability.

Approaches that shape online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice painful thoughts without getting swept up by them and then choose actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, avoidance, and decisions about life direction.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting unhelpful thinking and testing new behaviours. It often includes practical exercises and short experiments to reduce symptoms like panic and social anxiety.

Client-Centred Therapy prioritises a respectful, nonjudgemental relationship where the person leads the pace and content of sessions. This approach supports exploration of feelings and building self-understanding.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options and decide together what methods fit the person’s needs, goals and preferences. That choice is reviewed as therapy progresses, and techniques are adapted to what is helpful.

Confirm the session formats available before booking to be certain of the way you will meet. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions around daily life, reduce travel time and allow shorter or more frequent check-ins when needed. Registered or accredited professionals can also combine reflective conversation with practical homework that suits remote sessions.
