About Faiza
Faiza Malik is a BACP counsellor who brings 27 years of experience to sessions. She focuses on helping people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, relationships and sleep problems. She speaks English, Punjabi and Urdu and works with clients across the United Kingdom and internationally.
Her way of working is practical and down to earth. She uses client-centred conversations to listen to what matters most to each person. She also draws on attachment-based ideas when relationship patterns and past bonds are part of the issue.
Faiza uses cognitive behavioural techniques to help people spot unhelpful thinking and try small, manageable changes. She combines this with hypnotherapy and goal-focused tools when a different kind of approach may help someone shift from feeling stuck.
Sessions aim to identify clear steps clients can take between meetings. That might look like short experiments, new communication choices, or routines to support better sleep and coping. Faiza emphasises building practical skills alongside exploring feelings.
She invites people to speak openly without judgement and helps them set realistic goals. To begin, people are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and then arrange sessions according to the therapist's calendar.
How therapeutic approaches adapt to online work
Faiza commonly draws on client-centred methods that focus on listening and building a helpful relationship. This approach means sessions start with what matters to the client and follow their pace, which suits conversations about sleep, stress and relationships.She also uses attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationship patterns influence current responses. That can help people understand why they react a certain way and try different ways of connecting or soothing themselves.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and practical needs, then suggest which combination of methods might work best. Clients and the therapist review progress together and adjust the plan if needed.
Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into everyday life, for example by avoiding travel or allowing a shorter check-in during a work break. The original profile does not list specific online formats, so please confirm the session options available before booking. Registered or accredited professionals can offer remote help that focuses on practical skills, sleep routines and managing anxiety without changing the core therapeutic work.
