About Robert
Robert Karami is a psychotherapist based in the United Kingdom who helps people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, depression and big life changes. He speaks English and Persian and uses approaches that suit each person’s needs. Robert draws on four years of professional experience and works with cultural sensitivity born from his own background.
He meets people where they are and focuses on listening carefully. Sessions aim to make everyday difficulties easier to understand.
Background and approach
Conversations cover feelings, patterns, and practical steps to change what isn’t working. Robert uses a mix of approaches including Existential therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and client-centred methods. He also draws on psychodynamic ideas when they help make sense of past experiences.
These methods are chosen to fit what someone wants to work on, whether that is managing panic, coping with loss, or improving self-worth. Work in sessions may include noticing unhelpful thoughts, practicing new responses, and clarifying values and life purpose. For people recovering from trauma, the focus is on pacing and safety while addressing painful memories.
For workplace or social anxiety concerns, the emphasis is on practical strategies to reduce overwhelm. Robert offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging so people can choose what fits their life. Therapy sessions use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time.
To start, a short matching questionnaire is completed and appointments are scheduled according to therapist availability.

Online support
Therapeutic approaches and online support
Robert draws on Existential therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to address life direction and coping. Existential therapy helps people talk about meaning, choice and life purpose when they face big changes or loss. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) combines acceptance of difficult feelings with actions that match what matters to a person, which can help with anxiety and mood difficulties.He also uses client-centred work that focuses on creating a respectful, listening space where clients set the pace. This approach suits people who need time to make sense of feelings and to build self-compassion. The therapist will work collaboratively to find which methods fit best, tailoring the mix to each person’s goals and preferences rather than relying on a single technique.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to give practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions can be shorter check-ins or useful when bandwidth is lower, live chat offers a written real-time option, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between appointments. These formats help people fit therapy around work, family and daily life while keeping the focus on meaningful progress.
