About Zaid
Zaid Kazi is a counsellor and BACP member with five years' experience working in the United Kingdom. He helps people with stress, anxiety, depression, addictions and relationship concerns. He also offers support for grief, parenting strain, sleep and eating difficulties, and challenges such as ADHD and bipolar-related concerns.
Zaid uses a person-centred way of working. That means sessions focus on the person in front of him and their experience. He also brings in cognitive behavioural techniques, mindfulness and solution-focused steps where these suit a person's goals. Trauma-focused ideas are used when past events are part of the problem.
In a typical session he listens first and asks practical questions about what is happening now. He helps people spot patterns in thoughts and actions and tries small, manageable changes. Mindfulness exercises and short behavioural tasks may be suggested between sessions to test what helps.
Zaid works in English, Hindi and Urdu. He makes time to talk about everyday pressures like work stress, parenting, and relationship tension. Those who want help with addiction, anger, or feelings of emptiness can bring those issues to the room too.
He asks new clients to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session. Fees vary by location and are charged through a subscription that can be cancelled at any time. International clients are not currently accepted.
How Zaid uses therapy approaches and online counselling
Zaid combines person-centred work with cognitive behavioural techniques and mindfulness in straightforward ways. Person-centred work means the counsellor listens closely and follows what matters most to the client. Cognitive behavioural therapy looks at unhelpful thought and behaviour patterns and tries small changes to test what improves mood and function. Mindfulness practice teaches simple attention exercises to reduce rumination and notice the present moment.Finding the right mix is part of the work. He will discuss goals, preferences and practical needs with each person and together they decide which approaches to try. That choice can change as progress is made or new issues appear; the process is collaborative and reviewed regularly.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm current options before booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions around work, childcare and travel. It can also allow a shorter check-in when time is limited, or avoid the need to travel to an appointment. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt techniques such as brief behavioural tasks, mindfulness exercises and CBT worksheets to remote sessions so the work still feels practical and goal-focused.
