About me

Hello,

Thank you for your interest in learning more about me. My name is Farhat Hasan, and I am a licensed professional counselor in the state of Texas. I have an Educational Specialist degree in Counseling from Mississippi State University and a Master of Education degree in Counseling from the University of Mississippi. I have 16 years of experience as a counselor in both face-to-face and online modalities and have provided services to clients from diverse backgrounds in a variety of settings including schools, residential drug rehabilitation centers, in-patient, outpatient, and in-group homes.

My numerous professional experiences in hospitals, rehabilitation centers, clinics, and in schools have equipped me with an exceptional set of abilities and clinical expertise, which help me assist my clients in reaching their unique goals.

I have experience working with anxiety, depression, attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), anger management, family conflict, relationship conflicts, drug abuse, post-partum stress, and trauma/abuse. I also have experience working with depression, intellectual/developmental disabilities, mild autism, international students/spouses, and immigrant populations.

My counseling philosophy is based on accepting the individual (including/considering their background), life experiences, and personal beliefs. My counseling approach is client-centered - I work with clients together to help them develop insight and to identify their strengths, which they can use immediately to make changes. I also help them monitor that change, so that they can continue to work toward their goals. I will be there to guide, encourage and, if appropriate, challenge them, to help them see and take appropriate steps on their own to overcome their obstacles.

Most of all, I offer a listening ear to hear and authenticate clients’ thoughts and emotions and help them build a plan to facilitate moving forward. Therapy can be a fun and simple journey for me, and I always work with my clients where they stand at that moment. It takes huge strength and willpower to seek help. If you are ready to take that step, I am here to support and empower you.

I've had 2 sessions with Farhat so far and find her very easy to speak with. She is calm, warm and understanding. She narrows down what I'm describing quickly and provide various techniques to help me work through my issues. I will continue to meet with her.

Farhat is an excellent therapist. She is a great listener, objective, compassionate and is straight to the point. I’ve struggled with depression for over 15 years due some traumatic life events that kept piling up. I’ve been to various good therapist before, but Farhat is the first to help me truly understand myself, my struggles and help me see the light for the first time in a very long time. She was able to get straightened to the soirce within the first couple of sessions. I’m so glad I was connected to Farhat through BetterHelp. I’m looking forward to my journey to healing and recovery.

Farhat is easy to talk to and provides great insight. I wish I could talk to her everyday.

I have been working with Farhat for almost 5 months now and I think she really understands my concerns and underlying triggers without judgement. She also helps me build habits and strategies to cope with my anxiety and stress. She also brings a lot of cultural understanding to the conversation and it’s been a game changer for me.
