Kadija Taha helps with a wide range of concerns including anxiety, depression, stress, addictions, relationship and intimacy issues, grief, and self-esteem. She is experienced supporting LGBT people, those coping with trauma and abuse, parenting pressures, career changes, ADHD, and complex health or caregiving challenges. Kadija holds BACP accreditation and has been practising for 11 years in the United Kingdom.

Kadija describes her style as warm, calm and non-judgemental. Sessions aim to feel relaxing and safe, so people can speak openly and feel heard.

Background and approach

She blends practical talking therapy with compassionate listening to help people untangle painful thoughts and emotions. Her approach is integrative. She draws on cognitive behavioural techniques to spot unhelpful thinking and make small, practical changes.

She also uses attachment-based and emotionally-focused ideas to look at how relationships shape feelings and behaviour. Kadija includes client-centred principles in her work, which means conversations are guided by the person’s needs and pace. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy ideas are used when the focus is on values and living a meaningful life despite difficult feelings.

She has spent over a decade developing resources for bereavement support and offers specific help for people grieving loss. Kadija also brings cultural sensitivity and an openness to faith-based perspectives for clients who wish to include that element in therapy. Sessions are offered online in English, and international clients may be supported.

People start by completing a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions to fit their circumstances.

How Kadija’s approaches translate to online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice painful thoughts without being led by them and focus on actions that match their values. It can be useful for depression, anxiety and life changes when people want practical ways to live well despite hard feelings.

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns in relationships and how early connections affect current emotional responses. This approach can help when relationship struggles, intimacy issues or recurring conflict feel stuck.

Client-Centred Therapy puts the person’s priorities at the centre of sessions, with the counsellor offering empathic listening and gentle reflection. This is helpful for people wanting a paced, supportive space to understand themselves better.

Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk through goals, preferences and what feels most helpful, and then try methods that match those aims. Adjustments are made as therapy progresses so the work stays relevant to the person’s needs.

Online sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging, which makes it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving or travel. Phone calls work well when a lighter check-in is needed or bandwidth is low. Messaging and live chat suit shorter reflective exchanges between sessions. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation for deeper emotional work, while still offering flexibility for those not able to attend in person.
