About Hiba

Counsellor Hiba Choksy is a BACP member with four years of practice experience working in the United Kingdom. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, parenting concerns, low self-esteem, coping with life changes, ADHD and bipolar. Sessions are conducted in English according to the supplied facts.

Hiba sees people as experts in their own lives and works in a client-centred way. She listens to each person’s concerns and follows their pace. Conversations focus on what matters now and on small steps that feel doable.

She pays attention to cultural influences and how family or generational patterns can shape feelings and behaviour. This can include issues such as attachment problems, abandonment, codependency and communication difficulties. Hiba also works with practical matters like body image, eating concerns and caregiver stress.

Her approach aims to make it easier to speak about difficult topics. Sessions are direct and conversational rather than technical. People can expect a steady, person-focused presence that encourages openness and feedback.

Hiba has four years of professional experience and is listed with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. The biography indicates she offers therapy in English, Urdu and Hindi; please confirm current language options when booking.

To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then book a first appointment. Costs vary with location and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.

Client-centred approaches and online counselling

Client-Centred Therapy is built around what the client brings to the room. The counsellor listens, reflects and helps you make sense of your experiences. This approach suits people who want to explore feelings about stress, anxiety, parenting and self-esteem without being directed by the therapist.

The focus is on the client’s perspective and personal choices. Conversations are paced by the client and aim to build clearer thinking and more confident decision-making. For issues like coping with life changes, ADHD or mood-related concerns, this can help people notice patterns and try different ways of responding.

Finding the right approach happens together. The counsellor will discuss what feels helpful and adapt how sessions run to reflect your needs and goals. This is a collaborative process and you can give feedback about what is working.

The biography did not specify session formats. Before booking, confirm which formats Hiba currently offers and which languages she uses. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions into a work break or reduce travel time, and it can allow shorter check-ins when day-to-day demands are high. Registered or accredited professionals who offer remote sessions generally find that video or phone options can suit different practical needs, so check the available formats before you book.
