About Kadija

Kadija Taha is an integrative counsellor who supports people facing loss, relationship strain, anxiety and a wide range of life stresses. She also works with clients concerned about self-esteem, addiction, grief, parenting pressures and LGBT issues. Kadija brings a calm, warm presence so people feel heard and able to talk honestly about difficult topics.

She describes her approach as gentle and non-judgemental. Sessions aim to be relaxed and peaceful so clients can express themselves and consider new ways forward. Kadija uses bereavement models when grief is the main concern and draws on humanistic ideas to centre the person in the room.

Kadija combines cognitive behavioural methods with attachment and emotionally focused ideas to help people notice patterns and try different responses. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) ideas are also part of her practice when clients want tools for living with painful thoughts and feelings. The focus is practical - finding small steps that fit everyday life.

Her work includes supporting people from many cultural backgrounds and international locations. She notes experience helping those dealing with trauma, stress, bipolar mood concerns, eating and sleeping difficulties, and challenges around intimacy and commitment. Kadija also offers support around career change, compassion fatigue and ADHD related struggles.

Kadija is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. Her eleven years of experience shape a steady, empathetic style that aims to help people rebuild perspective and regain a sense of direction.

Approaches to use in online counselling

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and on choosing actions that match personal values. It can help with anxiety, depression and ongoing stress by teaching practical ways to move forward. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns and helps people try new ways of relating and feeling safer in connections. It is useful for difficulties with intimacy and relationship repeating cycles. Client-Centred Therapy places the person at the heart of sessions, offering empathy and acceptance so clients can explore their own solutions and build self-trust.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Kadija will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and day-to-day life. She draws from different approaches and adapts them as a shared decision between counsellor and client.

Confirm the therapist's current online session options before booking, as the profile does not list specific formats. Online counselling can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, reduce travel time and allow shorter or more frequent check-ins when needed. It can also help clients keep continuity of care if they move or travel internationally. Registered or accredited professionals will discuss practical arrangements and what will work best for the individual's circumstances.
