Dr Farah Naqvi

I am a psychologist with over 15 years of experience across academic teaching, research, and applied behavioural training. My work integrates mental health, developmental psychology, and business psychology to support children, adolescents, and adults in managing emotional and behavioural challenges. I have worked with children and adolescents on concerns such as emotional regulation, attention-related difficulties, academic stress, and parent–child dynamics. My approach with younger populations is collaborative and developmentally informed, involving caregivers through psychoeducation and practical behavioural strategies. With adults, I focus on anxiety, stress, burnout, life transitions, and interpersonal challenges. I use CBT-informed approaches, behavioural activation, and emotional regulation techniques to help individuals understand patterns in thoughts, emotions, and behaviours, and develop practical coping skills. I also incorporate elements of narrative therapy, helping individuals reframe their personal stories and build more empowering meanings around their experiences. My background in business psychology and organisational behaviour allows me to support professionals facing workplace stress, performance pressure, leadership challenges, and work–life balance concerns. I have also delivered training in emotional intelligence and mindfulness across corporate and government sectors. My approach is structured, empathetic, and collaborative, creating a safe, non-judgmental space for insight, resilience, and meaningful change.
