About Wajda
Wajda Tabassum is a BACP counsellor who offers remote sessions in English. She creates a calm, co‑created space where people can talk through stress, depression, relationship and trauma concerns. Sessions aim to be respectful and non-judgemental so people can be honest about what is difficult for them.
Her style is grounded in humanistic and person-centred ideas. Wajda listens closely and helps people identify what matters most to them. She adapts each session to the person's needs and works at a practical pace that suits their situation.
Background and approach
Wajda trained with a Foundation Degree in Humanistic Counselling from Middlesex University and has a BA (Hons) in Psychology. She also holds a certificate in online and telephone counselling and additional qualifications related to therapeutic art and working with young people. Over four years of practice she has supported people with a wide range of issues.
These include anxiety, grief, addictions, sleep and eating concerns, sexual intimacy issues, anger, self‑esteem and career questions. She also works with concerns such as attachment, abandonment, chronic illness and dissociation. Wajda draws on approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment‑Based Therapy, Emotionally‑Focused Therapy and existential ideas.
She also uses creative activities and brief, solution‑focused techniques when helpful. Sessions use the person’s goals to shape practical next steps and coping strategies.

Online support
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the person about their goals and preferences and together decide which methods to try. That collaborative process means sessions can shift if something isn’t helping or if other techniques seem more useful.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls allow face‑to‑face conversation when visual cues matter, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check‑in is needed, and live chat or text messaging suit people who prefer writing or need more frequent brief contact. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family or travel while keeping the focus on making steady progress.
