About me

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 (2016) and a Master of Education degree in Counseling from the University of Mississippi (2004). With 17 years of experience as a counselor in both face-to-face and online modalities, I have provided services to clients from diverse backgrounds in various settings, including schools, residential drug rehabilitation centers, in-patient and outpatient facilities, as well as group homes.
My extensive professional background in hospitals, rehabilitation centers, clinics, and schools has equipped me with exceptional abilities and clinical expertise, enabling me to assist my clients in achieving 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. Additionally, I have worked with clients dealing with depression, mild autism, international students/spouses, and immigrant populations.
My counseling philosophy is based on accepting the individual, considering their background, life experiences, and personal beliefs. Employing a client-centered approach, I collaborate with clients to help them develop insight and identify their strengths, empowering them to make immediate changes. I also assist them in monitoring their progress to ensure they continue working towards their goals. I provide guidance, encouragement, and, when appropriate, challenge them to overcome obstacles independently.
Above all, I offer a listening ear to understand and validate clients' thoughts and emotions, helping them devise a plan to move forward. Therapy, for me, is a journey that can be both enjoyable and straightforward. I meet my clients where they are, recognizing the courage and determination it takes to seek help. If you are ready to take that step, I am here to support and empower you.

Farhat is a very patient and thought provoking therapist. I would highly recommend her.

I feel like they did a great job of matching me with my therapist. I feel like I’m safely able to speak to her in an un-judgmental way. I already see improvement in myself.

Written on Aug 29, 2024 after therapy with Farhat for 11 months on issues concerning relationship issues

I've been working with Farhat Hasan through BetterHelp, and I can honestly say that she has been a lifeline during one of the most challenging periods of my life. With so much going on—from navigating a complex divorce and dealing with multiple terminal health issues to managing the grief of losing my father and the stresses of building a startup—Farhat has provided the support, insight, and guidance I desperately needed.

Farhat is incredibly responsive, proactive, and attentive to my needs. She understands the multifaceted nature of my circumstances and addresses each issue with empathy and expertise. Whether I'm struggling with emotional turmoil or need practical advice, Farhat always knows how to guide me toward clarity and healing.

Her therapeutic approach is both compassionate and practical, making me feel heard, understood, and supported at every step. I can't thank Farhat enough for her difference in my life. She's not just a therapist; she's a true partner in my journey to overcome these challenges.

BetterHelp is lucky to have someone as skilled and dedicated as Farhat on their team, and I would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone seeking support during difficult times.

She is so amazing. I felt so lost after going through an event, but she guided me out of this hole so smoothly and swiftly. I really cannot thank her enough. I highly recommend her for anyone who feels like they need someone. She will listen and help you talk.
