About Fauzia

Fauzia Hoque is a Person Centred counsellor who focuses on helping people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain and loss. She uses straightforward conversation and attentive listening to help people feel heard and understood. Fauzia brings nine years of experience and an approachable manner to each session.

She works with a wide range of concerns including depression, trauma and abuse, addictions, identity and intimacy-related issues. Adoption and foster care concerns are among the areas she lists, alongside attachment and abandonment difficulties. Fauzia also supports people with sleep and eating problems, anger, low self-esteem, ADHD and career-related stress.

In addition to private practice, she works in a secondary school where she integrates play-based techniques that let young people express themselves naturally. She also uses art in sessions with adults and children to help communicate difficult feelings when words are hard to find. These practical tools are offered alongside talking therapy to broaden how people can explore their experiences.

Fauzia draws on multiple approaches to shape sessions around each person’s needs. She favours a holistic, person-focused way of working and adapts methods as required. The emphasis is on building a genuine therapeutic relationship that supports the person to make meaningful changes.

People who want to begin can get in touch to ask questions and find out more about how she works. The first step is a short matching process followed by arranging sessions to suit both parties.

How therapeutic approaches shape online work

Client-Centred Therapy centres the person and their experience, using listening and reflection to help someone feel understood and to encourage self-directed change. It is useful for relationship issues, self-esteem concerns and grieving losses.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on practical skills to shift unhelpful thinking and behaviours. It can help with anxiety, depression, sleep problems and managing mood swings by breaking problems into small, manageable steps.

Mindfulness Therapy brings attention to the present moment through simple awareness exercises. It often supports coping with stress, rumination and emotional ups and downs by building calm, steadying habits.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. The therapist will work collaboratively to match methods to a person's goals, preferences and day-to-day needs rather than using a single fixed style. That decision is reviewed as therapy progresses to keep things useful.

If you are considering online work, please confirm what session formats are currently offered before booking. Many people find online counselling helps fit therapy around busy lives, makes sessions easier to attend and allows use of tools like screen sharing for worksheets or guided exercises. Some formats can also suit shorter check-ins or sessions that do not require being on camera.
