Fatemeh Mokri , BACP

Fatemeh Mokri is a UK-based counsellor and clinical assessor with five years of professional experience and accreditation from the BACP (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy). She works in an evidence-based counselling practice at Salford University and also teaches part-time in Counselling and Psychotherapy there, combining direct clinical work with academic involvement.

Her practice supports people facing a wide range of concerns, including stress and anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related challenges, depression, grief, sleep problems, parenting strains, anger, self-esteem issues, career transitions, bipolar management, coping with life changes, coaching needs, compassion fatigue, and ADHD. Additional focus areas include gender dysphoria, hoarding, immigration-related stress, infidelity and jealousy, obsessive-compulsive difficulties, phobias, postpartum depression, prejudice and discrimination, seasonal affective disorder, and the cultivation of self-love.

Drawing on approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment-Based work, Client-Centered principles, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Emotionally-Focused Therapy, she tailors dialogue and treatment plans to each person’s unique needs. Her own experience of therapy informs a belief in the value of talking and reflective work to gain perspective and foster growth. She aims to treat everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, offering a warm reception and a caring therapeutic space to explore pressing issues and work toward a more positive mindset.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Options

Fatemeh integrates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Attachment-Based Therapy alongside practical cognitive strategies. ACT emphasizes learning to accept difficult emotions while clarifying personal values and committing to meaningful actions - an approach that often helps with anxiety, depression, and stress by shifting the focus from symptom control to living a valued life. Attachment-Based Therapy explores early relationship patterns and how they shape current connections and emotional responses, which can be especially useful for relationship difficulties, intimacy challenges, and trauma-related struggles. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) offers tools to identify and shift unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, making it effective for anxiety, mood concerns, OCD-related patterns, and many day-to-day coping challenges.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Fatemeh works collaboratively with clients and licensed professionals to tailor methods to each person’s needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting techniques as understanding deepens and priorities change.

Online therapy options - including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging - allow for flexible scheduling and access from different locations. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives, support international clients, and maintain continuity of care when in-person meetings are not possible.
