Javeria Khan, BACP

Javeria Khan offers calm, straightforward support for people feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, depression, grief or relationship strain. She speaks English, Hindi and Urdu and aims to make first steps feel manageable for worried parents and adults. Javeria is a BACP counsellor with nine years working in mental health across a range of concerns.

She helps people talk through family tensions, parenting stress, intimacy worries and career difficulties. She also works with trauma and abuse, eating and sleeping problems, anger, low self-esteem and the practical challenges of change. ADHD, bipolar and compassion fatigue are among other areas she addresses.

Javeria draws on person-centred ways of working alongside psychodynamic ideas and elements of emotionally focused and narrative approaches. That means conversations centre on what matters to the person and on making sense of feelings and stories from their life. Sessions are adapted to each person rather than following a fixed script.

Her clinical training includes a BSc (Hons) in Psychology, a Foundation Degree in Arts and a BA (Hons) in Counselling, and she is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - BACP. Across nine years she has worked in settings that exposed her to complex, overlapping issues and cultural pressures.

People can expect a respectful, empathic manner and a focus on practical next steps alongside emotional understanding. Javeria encourages small, achievable goals and offers a steady presence while someone learns different ways of coping and relating.

How Javeria’s Approaches Work Online

Javeria uses person-centred methods that focus on the person in front of her and what they say matters most. This approach helps people feel heard and guides practical steps that match their own priorities. Emotionally focused work centres on identifying and shifting patterns in close relationships and in how emotions are experienced, which can help with intimacy and attachment struggles. Narrative elements help someone tell and reframe their life story, separating them from unhelpful labels and opening space for change.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. Javeria will collaborate with the person to choose or combine approaches that fit their goals, preferences and the issues they bring. Sessions begin with checking what matters most and adjusting methods as progress is made so the work stays relevant and effective.

Online therapy offers practical benefits for people juggling busy lives. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions require less bandwidth, live chat suits quick check-ins and text messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, parenting or travel and let people pick the format that helps them engage best.
