Frequently Asked Questions

How sessions work, fees, availability, and how to book a first conversation with Fareeha Naik.

How do sessions work?

Sessions are 50 minutes long and take place online via a secure video platform. We begin with what feels most present for you. There is no fixed agenda — the work follows your pace and priorities.

What is your approach?

I work from a person-centred foundation and hold a certification in person-centred therapy. I also draw on CBT, Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, and clear psychoeducation when they are useful. The relationship itself is central: a warm, non-judgmental space where you can think and feel freely.

Who do you work with?

Adolescents, adults, and young professionals. Common themes include stress, burnout, anxiety, relationship difficulties, life transitions, and the specific pressures faced by South Asian women and by clients living between cultures — NRIs, expats and diaspora, in India or abroad.

What are your fees?

Fees are on a sliding scale from ₹600 to ₹1,200 per session. We can discuss what feels workable for you when you get in touch.

When are you available?

Online sessions only. Monday to Friday, 8:00 AM to 3:00 PM. Saturday, 8:00 AM to 1:00 PM (IST, India Standard Time).

Do you offer corporate workshops?

Yes. I design and facilitate wellbeing, communication, and leadership workshops for organisations of different sizes, with particular experience in hospitality, maritime, frontline, and service sectors. Details and pricing are available on request.

How do I book a first conversation?

You can write to [email protected] or message on Instagram @unlockmindandwellness. Share a little about what brings you, and we will find a time that works within the available hours.
