Background and approach

Sessions often start by identifying immediate concerns and small, realistic steps to try between meetings. She draws on client-centred work to create a respectful space where a person’s experience guides the work. Cognitive behavioural ideas are used to spot unhelpful thoughts and test new responses in daily life.

Mindfulness techniques help with grounding and reducing strong emotions when stress or anxiety rise. With ten years of professional experience, Kadiatu has helped people navigate intimacy issues, anger, and life changes such as fertility or cancer-related concerns. She also supports those dealing with abandonment, attachment or family of origin patterns that keep repeating in adult life.

Practical matters like communication problems, commitment worries and substance use are addressed alongside feelings of guilt, shame or isolation. She offers coaching-style support when clients want focused, goal-orientated sessions. Kadiatu aims to help people find clearer choices and a steadier sense of purpose.

Therapeutic approaches and what they offer online

This counsellor uses client-centred work to place the person's experience at the heart of sessions. That means conversations are shaped by what matters to the client and the counsellor follows the client’s pace to build trust and clarity.

Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, is used to identify unhelpful thought patterns and test small behavioural changes. It is practical and often helps with anxiety, stress and low mood by giving concrete techniques to try between appointments.

Mindfulness therapy is offered to help people notice strong emotions and reduce reactivity. Simple grounding exercises and brief attention practices can help when anxiety or overwhelming feelings appear.

Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk through different options and agree on a plan based on the person’s goals, needs and preferences. Methods can be adapted over time as priorities change.

Online sessions can take place by video, phone, live chat or text messaging, giving flexibility around work, travel and daily routines. Video allows face-to-face conversation, phone needs less bandwidth and can be easier when movement is helpful, while chat or messaging supports shorter check-ins or those who prefer writing. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to keep progress moving between meetings.
