About Fadumo
Fadumo Mohamed helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, grief and depression. She works with people who have experienced war, torture, sexual or physical abuse, and natural disasters. Fadumo writes in a direct, calm way and aims to make first steps feel manageable for someone worried or overwhelmed.
She believes the person is the expert in their own story and brings a strengths-focused attitude to sessions. That means she listens for what already helps and builds on those abilities.
Background and approach
Conversations are practical and grounded, with room to name painful events and to plan small, doable changes. Fadumo has 26 years of experience in the field and is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. She draws on a mix of approaches to suit each person’s needs rather than using one fixed method.
Her work covers a wide range of concerns including adoption and foster care, immigration issues, gender dysphoria, HIV and AIDS, and difficulties linked to prejudice or discrimination. She also supports people dealing with infidelity, jealousy, postpartum depression and seasonal mood changes. Sessions can be conducted in English, Arabic or Somali.
International clients are accepted. To begin, a client completes a short matching questionnaire and then schedules sessions according to the therapist’s availability. Fadumo aims to make the first contact straightforward and respectful.

How Fadumo works online
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss what feels right and what fits your goals. Together you can try an approach and adjust it if it does not match your needs or preferences. This collaborative process helps make the work feel relevant and manageable.
Many people find online therapy easier to fit into their lives because it reduces travel and can be scheduled around work or family commitments. If you are considering online sessions, confirm the specific session options before booking. Registered and accredited professionals can offer online support that lets conversations continue when attending in person is difficult, helping you maintain continuity of care while you work on goals.
