About Samiyah
Samiyah Javed is a BACP counsellor who aims to help people struggling with depression, stress and anxiety. She writes plainly and listens closely to understand what is hardest right now. She wants clients to feel heard and respected from the first conversation.
Samiyah uses a client-centred way of working. That means sessions focus on the person's experience and what they want to change. Conversations are led by the client and the counsellor reflects back what she hears to help you make sense of things.
Background and approach
She has three years' experience supporting people with trauma, abuse, self-esteem and eating or sleeping problems. She also helps with grief, addictions, relationship and intimacy-related issues, and life changes such as career moves or fertility concerns. Practical topics like communication problems and coping with loneliness are part of her work too.
Samiyah tries to keep sessions clear and straightforward. She offers space to talk about hard feelings and to practise new ways of handling stress. The aim is to build small steps that feel manageable and realistic.
She works in English and accepts international clients. The process to begin is to choose Start Therapy, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule a time that suits you.

Approaches Samiyah lists
Listing an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor names and does not check training records.
Online support
That same client-led style translates well to online sessions. The counsellor will work with you to choose methods that suit your needs and preferences, discussing what feels most helpful as therapy progresses. Finding the right approach is a collaborative process and adjustments can be made over time.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video is useful when seeing facial cues matters, while phone calls need less bandwidth and can be easier during a busy day. Live chat and messaging suit shorter check-ins or people who prefer writing. These options offer flexibility to fit sessions around work, study or family life.
