About Soban Amir

Soban Amir offers compassionate psychotherapy for people feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, stress, or a sense of disconnection. He understands how quietly carrying difficult emotions can become exhausting, and how cultural, personal or professional pressures may make it hard to begin talking about what is really going on. When life reaches a turning point and change feels necessary, he supports clients to explore their experiences at a manageable pace.

He is a fully qualified psychotherapist registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) - the UK professional body for counsellors and psychotherapists. Soban works in an integrative way, tailoring techniques and interventions to suit each person rather than following a single, fixed method. This flexible approach aims to match therapeutic work to the individual needs presented in sessions.

Soban is committed to providing an anti-discriminatory and anti-oppressive space where people are welcomed and respected regardless of background, identity, or experience. He places strong value on the therapeutic relationship, believing, as Irvin Yalom said, "it's the relationship that heals". For those ready to begin, he offers steady, respectful partnership as they start the process of change.

Approaches and online therapy with Soban Amir



Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting entangled in them, and focuses on identifying personal values to guide meaningful action. It can be useful for anxiety, stress, and feelings of emptiness by shifting attention toward what matters most in life.

Client-Centered Therapy places emphasis on empathy, genuine listening, and respect for the client's pace and perspective. This non-directive approach supports self-exploration, improves self-esteem, and can help with relationship and identity concerns.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the connections between thoughts, emotions, and behaviors and provides practical strategies to change unhelpful patterns. CBT is commonly used for anxiety, low mood, and stress-related difficulties.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Soban Amir works collaboratively to determine what fits best for each person. He will discuss options, consider the client's goals and preferences, and adapt methods over time so therapy remains relevant and effective.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to engage - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging - making it easier to fit sessions around work, family, and other commitments. For many people, these options reduce travel time, increase accessibility, and allow consistent work with a registered professional from wherever they are.
