About Kadija
Kadija Taha is an integrative counsellor who supports people experiencing anxiety, depression, grief and relationship difficulties. She works with clients who face stress, low self-esteem, addiction concerns and life changes. Kadija offers a calm, warm and non-judgemental space where people can speak openly and feel heard.
She draws on humanistic and person-centred principles to keep sessions focused on the person's experience. Kadija also uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and attachment-informed ideas to help people make practical changes and understand relational patterns.
Background and approach
Bereavement counselling is a particular interest and she uses recognised bereavement models alongside other approaches to help people process loss. She also brings experience as an Islamic counsellor and is open to working with people of any background who wish to include faith-informed perspectives in their counselling. Across an eleven-year career Kadija has worked with people from many countries and cultural backgrounds.
That experience informs a respectful, culturally aware approach in sessions. She aims to help clients find clearer ways forward and steadier emotional footing. Kadija practices in the United Kingdom and works with both UK-based and international clients.
Sessions are offered in English and are tailored to the individual's concerns and goals.
Approaches that shape online counselling
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and then make choices that match their values. It can help with anxiety, stress and situations where avoidance has become a problem. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and offers practical tools to reduce worry, improve sleep and manage low mood. Attachment-based ideas look at how early relationship patterns affect current connections and help people shift painful patterns in close relationships.Choosing the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what has or hasn’t helped before, then try methods that best fit the person. This collaborative way means techniques can be adjusted as therapy progresses.
Online sessions can be arranged as video calls, phone appointments, live chat or text-based messaging to suit different needs. Video is useful for face-to-face conversation and non-verbal cues, phone calls work when bandwidth is limited, and messaging or live chat can offer shorter check-ins or more flexible timing. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, family life or when travel is difficult, while keeping the focus on the therapeutic work.
