Therapeutic approaches and flexible online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people learn to notice difficult thoughts and feelings without being driven by them, and to take values-based actions that increase meaning and wellbeing. This approach can be useful for anxiety, stress and coping with life transitions. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on patterns in relationships and early bonds, working to improve connection, trust and emotional safety in close relationships - it is often used for relationship, family and attachment concerns. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathy, acceptance and the therapist's nonjudgemental presence to support personal growth and self-understanding; it can help with low self-esteem, depression and life changes.
Kadija approaches choice of method collaboratively and views finding the right approach as part of the therapeutic process. She will discuss goals, preferences and practical needs with each person and adapt methods to suit what feels most helpful, working together to refine the plan over time.
Online sessions by video, phone, live chat or text-based messaging make it possible to arrange therapy around work, family and travel, and to access support from the United Kingdom or abroad. These options offer flexibility in scheduling and allow clients to continue therapy from familiar settings while working with licensed professionals and therapists who use approaches suited to their needs.
