About Kadija
Kadija Taha helps people facing anxiety, depression, relationship strain, bereavement and issues around identity. She supports those dealing with trauma, stress, addictions, low self-esteem and challenges like eating or sleeping difficulties. Kadija also listens to clients navigating intimacy, career questions, ADHD and major life changes.
She is a BACP counsellor with 11 years of practice and welcomes conversations in English from people in the UK and beyond. Kadija uses a calm, warm approach that aims to make talking feel safe and unhurried.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on helping people tell their story, name what matters most and find practical ways to manage hard moments. She draws on several therapeutic approaches to match the way a person prefers to work. Her practice includes bereavement support and work with LGBT concerns, and she describes her style as peaceful and non-judgemental.
Kadija combines person-centred listening with cognitive and attachment-informed techniques to help people feel understood and make small, steady changes. She can bring in bereavement models when someone is grieving a loss and uses faith-informed perspectives for clients who find that helpful. Kadija’s experience with a wide range of cultural backgrounds informs how she adapts conversations to each person’s life and values.
People who choose Kadija are offered thoughtful, reflective sessions aimed at easing distress and building clearer ways forward. To begin, those interested complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions according to availability.

How Kadija works online
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Kadija will discuss different ways of working and decide together which methods best match a person’s needs, goals and preferences. That collaborative process helps tailor sessions to what feels most helpful.
The biography does not list which online session formats are offered, so confirm current options before booking. In general, online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, avoid travel time and keep continuity when circumstances change. It can also allow for shorter check-ins when time is limited or audio-only conversations when bandwidth is low. Registered or accredited professionals adapt their methods to work well in remote sessions and help clients apply the same tools between meetings.
