About Javeria
Counsellor and BACP member, Javeria Khan has nine years of experience working in mental health in the UK. She helps people with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and family matters, trauma and abuse, and related concerns such as grief, anger, and issues with sleep or eating.
Javeria trained in counselling and psychology, holding a BSc (Hons) in Psychology, a Foundation Degree in Arts, and a BA (Hons) in Counselling. She is also a PCE-CfD practitioner, which focuses on person-centred experiential work for depression. Her registration is with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, listed as BACP.
Her main clinical approach is person-centred therapy, informed by psychodynamic thinking. She also draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy and narrative methods when helpful. Sessions aim to be conversational and respectful, with the counsellor listening closely and reflecting what comes up in the room.
In practice, Javeria pays attention to how culture, religion and personal history shape someone’s difficulties. She talks through patterns and feelings, and looks at how past experiences can affect present choices. Work can include looking at relationships, attachment patterns, and unhelpful repeating cycles.
People often begin by focusing on one or two pressing problems, such as coping with life change, parenting strain, or intense anxiety. Over time the work can broaden to build clearer ways of thinking and relating. Sessions are offered in English, Hindi and Urdu and she accepts international clients.
Therapeutic approaches used in remote counselling
Javeria uses person-centred therapy, which focuses on listening closely and responding to the person's concerns. This approach works well for people who need steadier, non-directive support and clearer emotional reflection.She also employs Emotionally-Focused Therapy, which pays attention to patterns in close relationships and the feelings that drive them. EFT can help when there are repeated cycles of conflict, disconnection or difficulty with intimacy.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor discusses goals and preference with each person and adapts methods over time. Decisions about which approach to use are made together, based on what feels most useful for the presenting issues.
Practical benefits of remote counselling include easier fitting of sessions around work and family life, shorter check-ins when needed, and the option to continue work with a chosen counsellor from a distance. The profile does not list which session formats are used, so confirm the current options before booking. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists commonly offer remote sessions to help make attendance more manageable.
