About Ehsan

Dr. Ehsan Goli Garmianaki offers help to people feeling stuck by stress, low mood, anxiety or difficult reactions to life changes. He works with individuals facing relationship strains, trauma, struggles with intimacy, addictions and issues around identity and self-esteem. Sessions are offered in English, Kurdish and Persian and he accepts clients from outside the UK.

Dr Goli Garmianaki practices psychodynamic therapy. That means conversations look at patterns in thoughts and feelings that repeat over time. He encourages people to reflect on how past experiences influence present behaviour and relationships.

Clients can expect a calm and respectful space to talk through worries. He emphasises steady work, honesty and building trust over time. Progress is generally gradual and depends on regular engagement with the process.

Across 14 years of clinical work he has supported people with grief, parenting strain, career difficulties and mood disorders. He also focuses on attachment issues, body image, caregiver stress and problems that arise around separation and fatherhood.

The HCPC credential appears with his name as supplied. That indicates formal registration for practice in the UK as noted in his biography. If you prefer to speak other than in English he can carry sessions in Kurdish or Persian.

To begin, clients follow the site process to match with him and schedule sessions according to availability. He aims to help people make sense of painful patterns and find ways to live with more ease.

Psychodynamic work online and what to expect

Psychodynamic therapy looks at recurring patterns in feelings, thoughts and relationships. It helps people understand how early experiences shape current reactions, which can be useful for anxiety, depression, relationship strain and identity concerns.

Sessions involve talking through difficult memories and present-day reactions. The therapist listens for repeating themes and helps the client notice how they show up in relationships and choices. Progress tends to be gradual and builds from regular conversations.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss your goals, preferences and daily life and together you will decide whether psychodynamic work is the best fit or whether adjustments are needed as therapy continues.

Confirm the specific session formats offered before booking, as the biography does not list formats. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also broadens access for people in different locations and can be a practical way to maintain continuity between sessions.
