About Robert

Robert Karami is a psychotherapist who helps people manage stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, depression, and major life changes. He works with concerns such as panic attacks, post-traumatic stress, workplace issues and social anxiety. Robert practises in the United Kingdom and offers sessions in English and Persian.

He brings four years of clinical experience and a personal perspective shaped by growing up in a different culture. That background informs his approach to culture, identity and how life events affect feelings and behaviour. He aims to listen without judgement and to make space for each person’s story.

Robert uses a range of therapeutic ways of working, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and psychodynamic ideas. In practice this means helping people notice what matters to them, try small behaviour changes, and look at patterns from the past that still affect today.

Sessions are collaborative and paced to the individual. Robert focuses on practical steps people can try between sessions as well as on understanding difficult emotions. He will work with you to set goals and review progress over time.

To start, people complete a short matching questionnaire and then arrange sessions according to availability. Payment is managed through a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.

Approaches that inform online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify their values and take small steps toward them while learning to live with difficult thoughts and feelings. It can be useful for anxiety, low mood and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and testing new behaviours to reduce symptoms like panic attacks and social anxiety. Client-Centred Therapy places the person’s experience at the centre, with the therapist providing empathic listening and support to foster self-understanding and growth.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Robert will discuss different methods and help decide what fits your situation, goals and preferences. That choice is collaborative and can change as therapy progresses.

If you are considering online therapy, check which session options the therapist currently offers before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people join from a quieter space or when they cannot be on camera, depending on the format offered. Confirm the practical arrangements and scheduling when you set up your first appointment.
