Hajran Khan is a counsellor with 16 years of experience who aims to make therapy straightforward and useful. She focuses on helping people manage stress and anxiety, build self-esteem and confidence, and navigate career and life shifts. She meets people where they are and treats their concerns with calm, practical support.
Her style is warm and respectful. She believes people know their story best and brings tools to help them act on what matters to them.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on clear goals and small steps that fit into everyday life. Conversations are direct but kind, with space to talk through what feels hard right now. Hajran draws on several well-known approaches to tailor work to each person.
She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help clients clarify values and make committed changes. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy helps identify unhelpful thinking patterns and replace them with more helpful actions. Attachment‑based ideas inform how past relationships affect current feelings and choices.
She has experience with a wide range of concerns including trauma and abuse, grief, addictions, eating and sleeping difficulties, bipolar and depression, ADHD and compassion fatigue. She also supports people facing family and parenting challenges, body image and intimacy issues, chronic health and caregiver stress, and relationship problems. Hajran works in English and accepts international clients.
She is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, often called BACP. If someone is unsure where to begin, she helps them set simple, achievable first steps.
Approaches that guide online sessions and practical support
Hajran commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy during online work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people clarify what matters to them and take small actions that align with those values, which is useful for stress, life changes and motivation. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviours, often helping with anxiety, low mood and sleep problems.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Hajran will discuss aims, try methods that fit a person’s needs, and adjust based on what helps most. The work is collaborative so clients help choose techniques and set practical goals for therapy.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video sessions are good when visual cues help communication, while phone sessions can be lower bandwidth and easier to fit into a short break. Live chat and messaging suit quick check-ins, brief exercises or people who prefer typing. These options make it easier to keep consistent progress while fitting therapy around work, family and travel.
