Hadija Muniko, NCPS

Hadija Muniko is a counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with seven years of experience. She holds the NCPS credential and works with adults on a wide range of concerns. Hadija aims to build a welcoming space where people can speak honestly about what is troubling them.

She supports people dealing with relationship and intimacy issues, trauma and abuse, anger, anxiety and depression. Other areas she helps with include grief, sleep and eating problems, addictions, bipolar difficulties, ADHD and coping with life changes. She also focuses on problems such as abandonment, attachment issues, codependency and communication difficulties.

Hadija uses an integrative approach, drawing on methods that include Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centred Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Emotionally-Focused Therapy. That means she adapts techniques to the person in front of her rather than following a single method. Sessions focus on practical steps, understanding patterns and building skills that people can use between meetings.

Her style is calm and non-judgemental. She emphasises listening first and then working collaboratively on goals. People who want clear communication and compassionate challenge tend to find this helpful.

Hadija works with adults and can take international clients. She offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging to suit different needs. To start, a short matching questionnaire is completed and sessions are scheduled according to availability.

Therapeutic approaches and online working

Hadija commonly draws on Attachment-Based Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in online work. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early bonds shape current relationships and helps people change patterns of connection and trust. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with practical exercises that reduce anxiety and improve mood.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Hadija will work together with each person to choose techniques that match their needs, goals and preferences. That may mean using attachment ideas to address relationship patterns alongside CBT tools for anxiety or mood management.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to give flexibility. Video calls suit in-depth conversations and visual contact. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text are useful for shorter check-ins, ongoing support between sessions or when written reflection helps work move forward. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and other commitments while keeping the focus on practical change.
