Background and approach

Sessions are used to untangle problems, try small changes and build new routines that make daily life easier. Halima draws on a range of approaches, blending thinking-based strategies with an emphasis on relationships and present-moment awareness. This allows her to address unhelpful thoughts, patterns in close relationships, and difficulties that arise after sudden changes.

She also supports people dealing with family issues, communication problems, addictions and questions around identity and intimacy. Other areas she covers include depression, bipolar concerns, parenting pressures and recovery after sexual assault or domestic violence. Halima holds BACP accreditation, which is noted as her professional credential.

She offers sessions in English and accepts international clients. The first steps typically involve a short questionnaire and arranging sessions that suit each person's schedule.

How her approaches fit online therapy

Attachment-Based work looks at how early and current relationships shape feelings and reactions. It helps people understand patterns that show up in close relationships and how to build more supported ways of connecting. Client-Centred Therapy places the person at the centre of the process, offering non-judgemental listening and support to help people find their own solutions. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and trying concrete experiments to change behaviour and mood.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most useful, then try methods that fit the person. That collaborative process means plans can shift as progress is made or needs change.

Online sessions include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation from wherever someone is based. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth or visual focus is limited. Live chat and messaging suit shorter check-ins, journalling between sessions or keeping therapy flexible around work and family commitments. These options aim to make regular support more accessible and easier to fit into busy lives.
