About Saleem
Saleem Choudhry is a BACP counsellor who focuses on helping people improve sleep and rest alongside wider emotional concerns. He writes in a warm, down-to-earth way and aims to make the first step feel manageable. Sessions are offered in English and he works from the United Kingdom while also accepting international clients.
Saleem draws on client-centred listening to help people talk through stress, anxiety, relationships and changes in life. He also uses psychodynamic ideas to look at patterns from the past that affect how someone feels now. Somatic-informed work is included for people who notice their body holds tension or sleep is disrupted by physical stress.
He has three years of professional experience and holds BACP registration. That background shapes how he plans sessions and the kinds of questions he asks to understand sleep, mood and daily routines. He describes himself as approachable and compassionate when supporting difficult topics like grief, addiction and trauma.
In practical terms Saleem supports people with sleep issues alongside concerns such as ADHD, eating and anger. He helps people explore triggers, try different ways of winding down, and experiment with routines that might improve rest. The work is collaborative and paced to the individual.
To start, a short matching questionnaire is used so clients and the counsellor can schedule sessions that fit. The subscription used for sessions can be cancelled at any time and costs vary with location and therapist availability.
Therapeutic approaches and online support
Saleem combines client-centred work with psychodynamic and somatic-informed approaches. Client-centred therapy focuses on listening, empathy and building a trusting relationship so people can speak openly about sleep problems, stress and life changes. Psychodynamic work looks at recurring patterns and how past experiences influence present sleep and mood, helping to make sense of longstanding difficulties. Somatic-informed work pays attention to bodily signals and tension that can interfere with rest, and introduces gentle ways to notice and release that tension.Finding the right approach is treated as a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and how different ways of working might help. Together they will adjust pace and methods as needs change so the sessions feel useful and manageable.

It can also allow for flexible timing across time zones for international clients. These practical benefits aim to make it simpler to try approaches that may improve sleep and daily routine.
