About me

My name is Kadija Taha. I am an integrative counsellor and I also specialise in bereavement counselling. I am a compassionate and genuine counsellor, with an empathic understanding that inspires me to help and support people with different kinds of problems. I offer a quiet, relaxing and peaceful therapy, with a warm and non-judgemental approach, for clients to have the ability to express themselves freely and feel heard and treated confidentially.

Some of the problems that I help people with, includes anxiety, fear, depression, phobia, relationships, couples, separation, bereavement and more.

I also like helping and supporting LGBTQ people with whatever problems they may have, so that they can live a comfortable and fulfilling life.

To ensure I meet my clients needs, I use a variety of theories such as, CBT, Psychodynamic, Person Centered approach, which is part of the humanistic approach and more. I also use a variety of bereavement models to help people grieving the loss of their loved ones. Additionally, as an experience Islamic counsellor, I use my Islamic counselling expertise to help and support, not only people of the Islamic faith, but open to anyone who feels to try something new, peaceful and relaxing, as that's what it's all about.

Moreover, in my counselling work, I have met people of all age groups and backgrounds, and that has enriched my cultural views of the world and it's people. For that, I am very grateful, as I have worked successfully with different people from various countries across the world. Helping and supporting people is something that I have always done, as far as I could remember.

Furthermore, putting together all my life experiences and how I swam out of the deep blue ocean without drowning; I think it would be a privilege for everyone that happens to chose me as their counsellor, because I have all the relevant resources to help clients overcome their problems and see life and the world in a positive perspective. Thanks very much for requesting my service.

She's good, I'm still getting to know her and getting to the stage I'm OK with doing therapy myself, nothing to do with her, but she's good.
