A highly motivated individual, a qualified person-centred counsellor specialises in working with individuals and organisations. Over three years of comprehensive experience conducting therapy with individuals undertake external supervision outside of Inspire under BACP guidelines for my personal growth and development. A self-motivated and confident individual, working remotely with several clients and offering online, telephone and video therapy. A good understanding of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) with the ability to use and demonstrate this during therapy sessions with clients.

I work therapeutically with people with a wide range of difficulties, challenges, and other issues by offering a safe, warm, and non-judgemental space by being with them on their journey to make positive changes in their lives. Being empathetic to clients by building rapport with them to support their healing journey through therapy is dedicated to helping clients pinpoint underlying emotions triggering instability and conflict.

I am here to help and support you through issues or challenges you want to work with to make better life choices so you can live the life you design for yourself!

About online counseling

Affordable.
Pay a low flat fee.
Convenient.
Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Khafayah is very professional but has a warm and friendly approach. She listens very well and helps you to understand what you have said and what it means. She challenges you to think about your thought patterns and offers practical strategies for you to take on board and use away from sessions. I would highly recommend Khafayah as a therapist.
