About Samiyah

Samiyah Javed is a BACP counsellor based in the United Kingdom with three years' experience. She works with adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, anger and related difficulties. She also supports people facing trauma, eating and sleeping problems, relationship and family concerns, grief and life changes.

She uses a client-centred approach. Sessions focus on listening and helping people to name what they are feeling. Samiyah helps clients talk through difficult thoughts and reactions, including anger and frustration that shows up at home or work. Conversations tend to be practical and grounded in the things someone does day to day.

Her work includes attention to body image, communication problems, fertility and multicultural concerns. She also supports people facing postpartum depression, isolation, immigration-related stress and issues common to young adults. Eating and food-related issues, self-harm and feelings of emptiness are included in her practice.

Samiyah aims to create a non-judgemental space where people can explore how they respond to anger, upset and loss. She encourages honest reflection and steady pacing rather than quick fixes. The goal is clearer thinking about triggers and more choices about how to act when emotions run high.

Practical steps in sessions include talking through recent events, noting patterns in reactions and trying small changes between meetings. People who want to understand their anger, manage stress or rebuild confidence may find this approach helpful.

Approaches used online and how they help

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on careful listening and reflecting back what someone says. It helps people who want to understand feelings like anger, anxiety and low self-worth by making sense of their own reactions and choices.

The counsellor will use these principles to help you notice patterns in how you react under stress. That can include looking at what triggers anger, what follows, and what small changes could reduce escalation. This approach suits people who prefer to work collaboratively rather than receive direct instruction.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss goals and preferences and together you will decide what feels most useful. That can mean trying a few ways of working and adjusting as needed so sessions fit your aims.

Please confirm the specific session formats available before booking, as the biography does not list them. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into everyday life by reducing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins during a busy day, or avoiding the need to be in a shared space. Registered or accredited professionals can also use online meetings to keep momentum between appointments and to make scheduling more flexible.
