About Samiyah

Samiyah Javed is a counsellor who aims to help people feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety or life changes. She writes plainly and listens closely so people can say what matters. Sessions are intended to be a place to talk without judgement and to start making small changes that feel achievable.

She uses a client-centred approach that keeps the person’s experience at the heart of the work. That means sessions are guided by the client’s concerns and pace rather than a fixed script.

Background and approach

Conversations focus on understanding feelings, building self-compassion and finding practical steps that fit daily life. Samiyah has three years of practice supporting people through depression, grief, relationship and intimacy-related difficulties, and issues around eating, body image and sleep. She also works with concerns such as addiction, anger and life-stage transitions.

Her background includes helping clients with multicultural and immigration-related stresses, and with fertility and postpartum difficulties. Based in the United Kingdom, Samiyah holds registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. She offers sessions in English and can work with people located outside the UK.

Therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging to suit different needs. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then arrange sessions. The subscription used for sessions can be cancelled at any time, and fees vary with location and therapist availability.

Naming an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor lists and does not check training records.

Client-centred care delivered online

Samiyah uses client-centred therapy, a way of working that focuses on the person rather than on labels. The therapist listens closely, reflects what she hears and follows the client’s pace to help them feel understood and respected. This approach can help with anxiety, depression, self-esteem and relationship concerns.

Sessions also aim to increase self-compassion and practical coping skills. That work often involves talking through difficult feelings, identifying small changes you can try between sessions, and reviewing what helps and what does not. Deciding which methods to use is a collaborative process based on the client’s goals and preferences.

Online therapy offers flexibility for people juggling work, family or travel. Video calls let you keep face-to-face contact when it matters, phone sessions need less bandwidth and are useful for shorter check-ins, and live chat or text-based messaging can fit into busy days without scheduling long appointments. These options make it easier to maintain regular work on your concerns from different places and at different times.
