About Farhat
Farhat Hasan is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas. She brings 17 years of counseling experience across hospitals, schools, clinics, and rehabilitation settings. Farhat uses a straightforward, client-centered approach and aims to meet people where they are.
She listens, validates feelings, and helps identify practical next steps. She trained at the University of Mississippi, earning a Master of Education in Counseling, and later completed an Educational Specialist degree in Counseling at Mississippi State University.
Background and approach
Those credentials underpin a long career that includes both in-person and online work. Farhat has worked in schools, residential drug rehabilitation centers, inpatient and outpatient facilities, and group homes. Her practice covers a wide range of concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, ADHD, addictions, relationship and family issues, trauma and abuse, grief, parenting, and problems with sleep or eating.
She has also supported people facing career challenges, anger, low self-esteem, and life transitions. Additional focus areas include attachment issues, blended family concerns, codependency, and coping after disasters. In sessions she mixes client-centered work with approaches like attachment-focused methods and cognitive behavioral tools.
She helps clients notice patterns, build on strengths, and try small changes in daily life. Farhat offers therapy in English and Bengali and accepts international clients. To begin, she asks people to share their story, clarify goals, and track progress together.
Her style is practical and supportive, offering guidance and gentle challenge so clients can regain control and move forward.
How attachment and CBT can work online
Farhat uses attachment-based ideas and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) in online work. Attachment-based work focuses on improving patterns in close relationships by noticing how emotions and memories shape reactions. It can help people who struggle with connection or repeat relationship problems. CBT looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and teaches small, practical skills to try in daily life; it often helps with anxiety, depression, and stress.Finding the right approach is a joint process. Farhat talks with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasnt helped before. Together they pick methods to try and adjust the plan as progress is tracked, so therapy fits the persons needs and pace.
Online work can be flexible and easier to fit into a busy life. Video calls let people meet face-to-face from home, while phone, live chat, and text messaging provide alternatives when schedules or comfort levels vary. These options make it simpler to keep continuity of care and to practice skills between sessions.
Attachment-Based Therapy
Looks at how early bonds shaped what you expect from closeness, and how that plays out now with a partner, a parent, or your own children.
Client-Centered Therapy
The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.
