About Kadija

Kadija Taha is an integrative counsellor who specialises in bereavement support and brings a calm, compassionate presence to her work. With 11 years of clinical experience and membership of BACP - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - she combines practical therapeutic skills with a warm, non-judgemental style that helps people feel heard and respected.

Kadija offers a quiet and relaxing therapeutic space where clients can explore anxiety, depression, phobias, relationship and couple difficulties, separation, grief and related challenges. She is experienced supporting LGBTQ people and aims to help them build more comfortable, fulfilling lives. Her practice also addresses a wide range of concerns including self-esteem, stress, addictions, parenting and coping with life changes.

Her approach is integrative by design, drawing on cognitive behavioural techniques, psychodynamic thinking and a person-centred humanistic stance, alongside bereavement models tailored to loss and grief. Kadija also brings experience in Islamic counselling, which she uses to support clients from Islamic backgrounds as well as anyone interested in a gentle and reflective approach.

Having worked with people of many ages and cultural backgrounds, including clients from different countries, she draws on those life experiences to offer empathetic, culturally aware care. Kadija aims to equip people with resources and perspectives that help them move through difficulty and find renewed possibilities in life.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters most to them and take practical steps toward those values, even when difficult thoughts and feelings are present. It is often used for anxiety, depression and stress-related issues.

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on relationships and early patterns of connection, helping clients understand how attachment styles influence current difficulties in relationships, intimacy and emotional regulation.

Client-Centred Therapy emphasises an empathic, non-judgemental relationship where the therapist supports the client to explore their experience and find their own solutions; it is helpful for building self-esteem, processing grief and navigating life changes.

Kadija works collaboratively with each person to find the best therapeutic approach, tailoring methods to the client’s goals, preferences and circumstances. She sees choosing a method as part of the therapeutic process and revisits what works as needs evolve.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging, providing flexibility to fit therapy into busy or geographically distant lives. These formats allow registered professionals and therapists to offer consistent support, making it easier to access regular sessions, manage ongoing difficulties and continue work between meetings.
