About Me
Mimi Fakhri MSc PgDip. EBPT Dip. CBH GQHP
I'm a cognitive behavioural (CBT) therapist and hypnotherapist working in Kingston and New Malden.
My Mission
I am passionate about helping people who struggle with anxiety, worry or stress to break free from anxiety and reclaim their lives. I want you to learn practical tools and skills that help you to help yourself. My aim is that you become your own therapist, not reliant on me.
My story
I worked for over 15 years in blue-chip corporate business, so I understand first hand the pressures of a fast-paced, pressure-filled environment and the difficulties of juggling this with family life. As someone who has suffered with stress and anxiety in the past, I know just how helpful CBT, hypnotherapy, and mindfulness can be.
My Approach & Philosophy
I use a combination of cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), hypnotherapy and mindfulness-based approaches. I match the evidence about what works to your individual needs, preferences and lifestyle.
I have an evidence-based philosophy, which means I believe you have the right to treatment that is based on sound scientific evidence. This means I keep up with the latest research and my approach is based on the best up to date evidence.

I have a Postgraduate Diploma in Evidence-based Psychological Treatments from the University of Reading, and a Diploma in Cognitive Behavioural Hypnotherapy from the UK College of Hypnosis and Hypnotherapy. I also have a BSc in Psychology and an MSc in Behavioural Decision Sciences (the psychology of behaviour and decision making). I am currently studying for a PhD exploring the psychological experience of uncertainty.
I teach at the UK College of Hypnosis and Hypnotherapy and am a clinical supervisor for other hypnotherapists.
I'm accredited by the British Association for Behavioural and Cognitive Psychotherapies (BABCP) and General Hypnotherapy Register (GHR). I am bound to the stringent Codes of Ethics of all of these organisations.
