“Culturally sensitive, faith-informed counselling online”

Verified by Kyan

About Kaneez

I am a qualified therapist offering compassionate, culturally sensitive and faith-informed support to people facing emotional, mental and spiritual challenges. I work with adults, couples and families. People come to me for help with anxiety, stress, trauma, grief and loss, family dynamics, low self-esteem, life transitions and spiritual struggles, and I also offer pre- and post-marriage counselling and parenting support.

I hold a Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling, a Systemic Qualification in Couples and Family Counselling from the Institute of Family Therapy, a Family Counselling Qualification from Relate and an Islamic Counselling Qualification from Al Balagh Academy. My continuing training includes attachment theory, Transactional Analysis, PTSD, play therapy and an Advanced Certificate in CBT.

I believe that emotional wellbeing and spiritual wellbeing are deeply connected. For clients who wish, Islamic values, beliefs or spiritual reflections can be gently integrated into our work. This is always guided by your preferences, and I also work with clients of all backgrounds and belief systems. I offer sessions online, so you can take part in therapy from your own space.

How Kaneez works

My approach is client-led and grounded in empathy, respect and curiosity. I offer a warm, reflective and collaborative space where you can explore your thoughts, feelings and experiences at your own pace. I draw primarily on person-centred, integrative, CBT-informed and systemic principles, and I adapt the way I work to suit your individual needs. Where you want it, faith-based insights can be part of the work. The aim is to help you better understand yourself, develop emotional resilience and move towards meaningful change.

Approaches

General information from Kyan about each method, not a description of how Kaneez works.

Person-centred therapy

Person-centred therapy, developed by Carl Rogers, starts from the idea that you are the expert on your own life. The therapist offers warmth, empathy and genuine attention without steering the conversation, so you can explore what matters to you at your own pace. Many people find it helps them feel heard and grow in confidence and self-understanding.

Integrative therapy

Integrative therapy combines ideas and methods from different therapeutic approaches, chosen to suit you and what you bring. Rather than following one model, the therapist adapts the work as it goes along. This flexibility can help when needs change over time.

Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT)

Cognitive behavioural therapy looks at how thoughts, feelings and actions keep each other going. Together you notice the patterns that hold a problem in place and try out new ways of thinking and acting, often with small practical tasks between sessions. It is widely used for anxiety, low mood, stress and sleep problems.

Systemic & family therapy

Systemic and family therapy looks at difficulties in the context of the relationships around you: your family, partner, work or friends. Patterns between people, rather than one person alone, become the focus of the work. It can be used with individuals, couples and whole families.
