About Rabia
Rabia Waqar Khan is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression and relationship strain. She supports people dealing with parenting worries, career pressures, trauma and low self-esteem. Rabia speaks English, Punjabi and Urdu and works with clients in the United Kingdom and internationally.
Rabia approaches sessions with a simple belief: people are the experts in their own lives. She draws out strengths and small steps that build resilience.
Background and approach
Conversations focus on what matters now and what practical steps can help day-to-day. Her background includes twelve years working in counselling roles across community and clinical settings. She holds BACP registration, which reflects professional standards in the UK.
Over the years she has guided people through difficult transitions and recurring patterns that cause distress. In sessions Rabia uses a mix of approaches suited to the person in front of her. She combines ideas from acceptance and commitment therapy, cognitive behavioural methods, dialectical skills and mindfulness.
Sessions are flexible and tailored to individual needs rather than a one-size-fits-all plan. People can expect calm, clear conversations and practical tools to try between sessions. Rabia also offers coaching-style support for goal setting and managing compassion fatigue.
Her style is warm and direct, aimed at helping clients make steady progress.

Online support
Choosing the best approach is a shared process. The therapist will discuss goals, try techniques in sessions and adapt what works best for each person. Clients often move between styles as needs change, and this flexibility helps tailor support to real-life problems.
Online sessions use video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging to fit different routines. Video works well for in-depth conversation and exercises. Phone calls can be a good shorter check-in and need less bandwidth. Live chat or messaging suit brief updates, reflection between sessions, or times when typing feels easier. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, family and travel commitments, while keeping continuity of care with registered or accredited professionals.
