About Kadija

Kadija Taha is an integrative counsellor with 11 years of experience who offers calm, warm therapeutic support. She uses a gentle, non-judgemental style to help people talk through anxiety, depression, relationship strain, grief and related concerns. Kadija also supports LGBT clients and people affected by adoption and foster care issues.

She describes her work as peaceful and relaxing, aiming to create space for people to express themselves and feel heard. Kadija draws on a mix of approaches to match what each person needs rather than relying on a single method. Sessions are influenced by humanistic values and an emphasis on empathy and respect.

Kadija uses cognitive behavioural tools to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try different ways of responding. Attachment-based ideas guide work around close relationships and patterns that repeat over time. Client-centred techniques keep the focus on the person’s experience and choices in the room.

She also has experience supporting people through bereavement and uses bereavement models to guide that work. Kadija notes experience using faith-informed Islamic counselling when clients wish to include that perspective alongside other approaches.

Having worked with people from many countries and backgrounds, Kadija says cultural awareness is part of her practice. She holds BACP accreditation, which is listed as her professional credential. Her practice is based in the United Kingdom and she offers sessions in English.

How Kadija’s approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice where they are stuck and choose actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, depression and life changes by focusing on small steps rather than waiting for feelings to vanish. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns in close relationships and helps people understand how early bonds affect current connections and reactions. It is often used when relationship patterns, grief or abandonment issues are present. Client-Centred Therapy centres the session on the person’s experience and priorities, offering empathy and respect while the client leads the pace and topics.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences and what feels most helpful. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the work as it progresses.

The biography does not list specific online session formats, so please confirm current options before booking. Many people find remote work useful for fitting sessions into a busy week, keeping sessions shorter when needed, or choosing times that suit different time zones. Registered or accredited professionals can also adapt exercises and tools for remote conversations so the work can continue even when meeting in a different way than face to face.
