What It's Like Working With Me
I aim to ensure that every client feels genuinely heard, respected and emotionally safe throughout their counselling experience.
My priority is to create a calm, grounding and non-judgemental space where clients can open up at a pace that feels right for them.
I aim to offer steady support, deep listening and gentle guidance so clients feel understood, valued and empowered. I want each person to leave sessions with greater clarity, self-awareness and confidence, along with practical tools they can use in their everyday lives.
My hope is that clients feel supported, strengthened and more connected to themselves after each session.

Approaches I May Use
I believe therapy works best when it is collaborative and grounded in a genuine therapeutic relationship. I take the time to understand your story, strengths and goals so the support you receive feels meaningful and personalised.
My approach focuses on building self-awareness, strengthening coping skills, improving communication and relationships, and developing resilience. Through gentle guidance, I support you through life’s challenges with greater clarity, confidence and emotional balance, so you can move forward feeling grounded and supported.
I use a flexible approach to counselling, drawing from Interpersonal Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) and other evidence-based modalities. This allows me to adapt each session to your unique needs, experiences and the pace that feels right for you.
Aneeqa draws from a range of approaches depending on your needs, including:
- Interpersonal Therapy
- Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)
- Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)
- Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT)
