About Faiza

Faiza Malik is a counsellor with a long history of helping people work through stress, anxiety, relationship troubles and trauma. She holds BACP accreditation and practises from the United Kingdom. Faiza speaks English, Punjabi and Urdu and has spent many years supporting people with addiction, grief, low self-esteem and motivation.

Her approach mixes practical talking therapy with techniques that help shift unhelpful patterns. Sessions focus on what is happening now and on building skills to cope with difficult emotions.

Background and approach

Faiza aims to create a calm space where people can say what they need to say without feeling judged. Over 27 years she has combined client-centred work with attachment-based ideas and elements of cognitive behavioural therapy. That range helps when clients bring complex life issues such as family of origin difficulties, relationship breakdown or chronic stress.

She also draws on trauma-focused methods when past abuse or painful events are significant. Practical tools are used alongside conversation. These include guided mindfulness, reframing thoughts, pacing emotional processing and addressing behaviours that keep problems going.

The focus is on small changes that make everyday life easier. Sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat and text-based messaging. International clients can be seen.

Faiza encourages people to take the first step and complete a short matching questionnaire to begin scheduling sessions.

Ways of working Faiza names

Naming an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor lists and does not check training records.

Therapeutic approaches and online therapy options

Faiza commonly uses trauma-focused methods, attachment-based work and client-centred therapy. Trauma-focused approaches look at how past hurts affect today's reactions and help people process painful memories in manageable steps. Attachment-based work pays attention to how early relationships shape current patterns, helping people change how they relate and feel safe with others. Client-centred therapy focuses on listening, empathy and helping clients find their own solutions rather than being told what to do.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Faiza collaborates with each person to identify what fits their goals and what feels helpful. She adapts methods over time, matching tools to the client's needs, preferences and pace so that therapy feels practical and realistic.

Online therapy is offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video calls let people connect face to face when that helps. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for a quieter check-in. Live chat and text messaging suit shorter check-ins, written reflection, or people who prefer not to be on camera. These formats make scheduling more flexible and can help therapy fit around work, care commitments and travel.
