About Kadija
Kadija Taha is a BACP-accredited counsellor based in the United Kingdom with 11 years of experience. She works with people facing anxiety, depression, stress, relationship difficulties, grief and issues linked to identity such as LGBT concerns. She also supports those dealing with trauma, self-esteem and addictions, and is experienced in bereavement counselling.
Kadija uses a mix of humanistic and evidence-informed approaches. Sessions often draw on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Client-Centred methods to look at thoughts, feelings and practical changes. Attachment-based ideas can be used to understand relationship patterns and how they affect guilt, shame and closeness.
She describes a calmer therapy style and offers an environment intended for open conversation. Kadija has worked with people from many cultural backgrounds and with international clients, which she says has shaped her way of listening and responding.
Her background includes practice with bereavement models and Islamic counselling approaches, which she offers alongside other methods for those who wish to try them. She aims to match techniques to each person’s situation rather than use a single method for everyone.
Clients who want to begin are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. Fees vary by location and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time. Please confirm current session options before booking.
How Kadija uses evidence-based approaches online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, avoidance and situations where guilt or shame fuel unhelpful patterns.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings and behaviour and offers practical ways to test and change unhelpful thinking. This approach can suit people working on low mood, worry and recurring self-critical thoughts.
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early and current relationships shape expectations and responses in close relationships. It can be helpful for intimacy issues, relationship strain and some forms of shame tied to connection and loss.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options and decide together with the client which methods to try based on needs, goals and personal preference. That collaborative process may mix approaches rather than sticking to one method.
Confirm current session formats before booking so you know how sessions are delivered. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into busy days, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins or flexible scheduling. Different approaches can be adapted to remote sessions, and the therapist can help choose what suits daily life and practical constraints.
