About Hadija
Counsellor Hadija Muniko is registered with NCPS and has seven years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. She works with adults on relationship difficulties, trauma and a wide range of emotional concerns including anxiety, depression, anger and grief.
Hadija meets clients from late teens through later adulthood. She supports people dealing with intimacy issues, addiction-related problems, sleeping and eating difficulties, and neurodiverse presentations such as ADHD. She also helps when life changes, work stress or parenting strain become hard to manage.
Her approach is integrative. That means she draws on more than one method and picks what seems helpful for each person. She uses client-centred ideas to focus on the person in the room and attachment-based thinking to look at patterns in close relationships.
She also uses cognitive behavioural techniques to address upsetting thoughts and behaviours and elements of emotionally focused work for relationship and intimacy problems. Hadija may use practical exercises in sessions and between meetings to support coping and behaviour change.
Sessions are aimed at making problems clearer and finding manageable steps forward. Hadija works with practical concerns like communication, boundaries, control issues and caregiving stress. She also addresses deeper wounds such as abandonment, attachment issues and the effects of past abuse.
Her background includes experience across a broad range of difficulties and a toolbox of approaches such as person-centred therapy, psychodynamic ideas, transactional analysis and imago dialogue. People who want a counsellor who adapts methods to their needs may find this style helpful.
How her therapeutic approaches work in online counselling
Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships shape current patterns. It helps people understand why they react in certain ways with partners or close others and supports changes in how they relate. Client-centred therapy focuses on the person’s experience in the room and aims to make space for their thoughts and feelings without direction from the counsellor. Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, is practical and action-oriented; it helps identify unhelpful thoughts and habits and replace them with more useful strategies.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Hadija will discuss the options with each person and together agree which methods to try based on the issues, goals and preferences presented. That process is collaborative and can change as needs evolve.
The practical benefits of online counselling include fitting sessions into a busy week and avoiding travel time. Different formats suit different circumstances, so please confirm available session options before booking. Online meetings can allow shorter check-ins when needed, and they can make it easier to keep regular appointments around work or family commitments.
