About Farhat

Farhat Hasan is an LPC - a licensed professional counselor based in Texas. She brings 17 years of counseling experience and a straightforward, listening-first style to sessions. She speaks English and Bengali and has worked with people from many backgrounds and life situations.

Her work centers on understanding each person's history and daily challenges. She uses a client-centered stance to help people notice strengths, set practical goals, and try small changes that add up. This approach is repeated across issues like stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, and coping with life changes.

Hasan's background includes schools, hospitals, rehabilitation centers, clinics, and group homes. She has supported people dealing with substance issues, trauma and abuse, ADHD, grief, anger, and parenting concerns. That range gives her experience with different communication styles and real-world pressures.

In sessions she listens first, then helps clients plan doable steps. She offers guidance and encouragement and will challenge unhelpful patterns when it helps progress. Progress is tracked so people can see how changes affect daily life.

Her training includes a Master of Education in Counseling and an Educational Specialist degree in Counseling. Those degrees, combined with years of practice, inform how she blends talk, problem solving, and emotional work. If someone is ready to begin, Hasan helps them take the next scheduling step.

How her approaches translate to online work

Attachment-Based Therapy helps people notice patterns in close relationships and how early bonds shape current reactions; it can be useful for intimacy struggles, attachment issues, and relationship stress. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person in front of the therapist, using active listening and empathy to help someone find their own answers; it suits people who want support in building confidence and direction. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts, feelings, and behaviors together and uses practical exercises to reduce anxiety, manage mood, and change unhelpful habits.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to match methods to their goals, preferences, and daily needs. This typically involves trying techniques, checking what helps, and adjusting the plan over time.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, cut travel time, and maintain continuity when life changes. Because the profile does not list specific session formats, confirm the available options before booking. The focus online remains the same as in-person: listening, identifying small steps, and tracking progress so therapy fits into everyday life.
