About Farhat

Farhat Hasan is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) based in Texas who draws on 17 years of clinical experience to support people navigating stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and family concerns, addiction, trauma, and life transitions.

Background and approach

She earned a Master of Education in Counseling from the University of Mississippi and later completed an Educational Specialist degree in Counseling at Mississippi State University in 2016. Over nearly two decades she has worked in schools, hospitals, residential drug rehabilitation centers, clinics, inpatient and outpatient facilities, and group homes, offering both in-person and online care.

Her practice emphasizes a client-centered stance that honors each person’s background, beliefs, and lived experience. She helps clients build insight, identify strengths, and set concrete steps toward their goals while offering guidance and occasional challenge when useful.

Farhat has experience with a wide range of presenting concerns including ADHD, postpartum stress, eating and sleeping problems, grief, anger, intimacy-related issues, and coping after loss or separation. She also has experience working with immigrant and international student populations.

Farhat speaks English and Bengali and accepts international clients. She approaches therapy as a collaborative process, meeting clients where they are and supporting them as they take steps to change and grow.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Farhat commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Attachment-Based and Client-Centered approaches in her work. CBT focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and stress and to improve coping with life changes. Attachment-Based Therapy explores early relationship patterns and current bonds to help address intimacy issues, family dynamics, and relational wounds. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathy, unconditional positive regard, and collaboration so clients can explore their values, build insight, and identify strengths at their own pace.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the collaborative process. She partners with clients to clarify goals, assess what methods feel most useful, and adjust the approach as progress unfolds so therapy aligns with the client's needs and preferences.

Online therapy offers flexibility in how and when sessions happen, and she provides several formats to fit different lifestyles. Clients can choose video calls for face-to-face conversation, phone sessions when video is not ideal, or text-based options including live chat and messaging for ongoing support and convenient check-ins. These options make it easier to access licensed professionals from different locations and to integrate therapeutic work into busy schedules.
