Sobia Siddique offers gentle, person-focused counselling grounded in attachment and emotionally focused ways of working. She draws on client-centred values so people feel heard and respected. Sobia works in English and Urdu and brings six years of experience to her practice.

Sobia supports people who are struggling with stress, anxiety and low mood. She also helps with trauma and abuse, grief, relationship and intimacy-related issues, and concerns around self-esteem and identity.

Background and approach

She can address difficulties linked to parenting, career strain, bipolar disorder and coping with big life changes. Her additional interests include attachment wounds, abandonment, codependency and communication problems. She also works with people facing chronic illness or pain, caregiver stress, blended family challenges, dissociation and separation or divorce.

She is comfortable addressing cultural and faith-related questions when these come up. In sessions she blends attachment-based ideas with emotionally focused and client-centred approaches. That means time is spent listening to your story, noticing patterns in relationships, and helping you name what matters most.

Sometimes the focus is on feelings and relational patterns, and sometimes on practical steps to make day-to-day life easier. Sobia aims to create a calm, respectful space where people can talk honestly about their struggles. She works collaboratively to set goals that feel realistic.

Therapy is paced to suit each person, and sessions can include reflection, practical strategies, and exploration of meaning.

How attachment and emotion-focused work adapt online

Sobia uses attachment-based therapy to look at how early patterns influence current relationships. This approach helps people who notice repeating relationship hurts, fears of abandonment or trouble trusting others by exploring how those patterns play out now.

She also draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy, which focuses on identifying and shifting strong feelings in relationships. EFT-style work helps people understand what their emotions are telling them and learn new ways to connect or set boundaries. Client-centred practice underpins these approaches by putting the person's experience at the centre of the work and offering empathic listening.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, try different ways of working, and agree what feels most useful. Clients and the therapist check in regularly and adapt the plan based on what helps.

Online therapy offers flexibility and practical options. Video calls allow face-to-face connection and visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is low or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging suit people who prefer writing between sessions or who need frequent brief contact. These formats make it simpler to fit therapy around work, family and daily life while using approaches that address relationships, emotion and meaning.
