“Warm, integrative counselling where you can feel genuinely heard”

Verified by Kyan

About Karima

I'm a registered counsellor offering warm, integrative online counselling across the UK. I believe many people carry emotional pain that often goes unseen by others. I work with adults facing anxiety, low mood, stress, grief, relationship and attachment difficulties, low self-esteem, family issues and life transitions, and with people who feel emotionally overwhelmed or want to grow personally.

I draw mainly on person-centred, existential and psychodynamic ideas, and from different therapeutic perspectives to support each person's experiences and needs. Sessions can be offered in English, Arabic or a combination of both, depending on what feels most natural and comfortable for you.

My approach is warm, reflective, emotionally attuned and deeply human. I do not believe healing comes from perfection. Rather, I believe it often begins when someone feels able to acknowledge and explore what is truly happening within them. I aim to offer a space where you can feel accepted, respected and genuinely listened to.

How Karima works

I draw mainly on person-centred, existential and psychodynamic ideas, bringing in different therapeutic perspectives to support what each person brings. Sessions last 50 minutes, take place online and are usually weekly. There is no fixed number of sessions, and both short-term and long-term work are possible. We can begin with a free 20-minute consultation, with no obligation.

Approaches

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

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.

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.

Existential therapy & logotherapy

Existential therapy and logotherapy look at the big questions of life: meaning, freedom, choice, loss and mortality. Rather than treating difficulties only as symptoms, they explore how you want to live and what gives your life meaning. They can be helpful at turning points, in times of crisis or when life feels empty.

Psychodynamic therapy

Psychodynamic therapy explores how earlier experiences, and feelings you may not be fully aware of, shape your life today. Patterns that show up in your relationships, and sometimes in the relationship with the therapist, become something to understand together. It is often used for recurring difficulties with mood, relationships and self-esteem.
