About me

I offer a warm and engaging approach to exploring what’s causing you pain. My focus is on helping you re-connect with yourself to discover what you need to live a more fulfilling life.

I am a multi-cultural, integrative and intuitive psychotherapist. My approach combines psychodynamic, humanistic, existential, body psychotherapy, intuition and creativity. In practice, this means we’ll explore your thoughts, feelings, body, and behaviours with curiosity and compassion. We’ll explore your relationship with yourself and others, your needs and your values. And connect the dots to discover what's keeping you stuck and why.

My aim is to help you understand yourself as a whole and feel empowered to live the life you want.

I welcome creative expression- through drawing, writing, working with objects, or using imagination and intuition.

I have over 10 years experience working with a wide range of clients, and I see clients privately with a special interest in working with identity and any kind of difference, including culture.

I believe we all have the ability to grow and thrive with the right resources. I also believe that when we build a more trusting relationship with ourselves, we can take that belief in ourselves through every challenge and face it with more confidence.

I offer online sessions via video or voice call.

If you’d like a confidential space to explore difficult parts of your life or to gain perspective from an objective professional, therapy could be a great place to start.

Reviews

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Sarvin Afarinesh. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with Regain might be different.

Written on Apr 16, 2026 after therapy with Sarvin for 1 month on issues concerning relationship

My spouse and I have been working with Sarvin Afarinesh for over a month now, and we have seen a significant improvement in our relationship. We look forward to our sessions every week. Sarvin is a true expert; she listens attentively to everything we say without any judgment. At the end of each session, she provides practical exercises that have directly helped us strengthen not only our marriage but also our personal life. She has a deep understanding of the root causes of our issues and tailors her guidance to help us progress. We highly recommend her services.
