About Samiyah
Samiyah Javed welcomes people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, low mood or changes in life. She introduces herself at the first meeting and aims to make each person feel heard and respected. Sessions are presented as a place to talk through difficult thoughts without judgement.
Samiyah is a BACP counsellor with three years of direct experience. She has supported people dealing with trauma and abuse, eating and sleeping difficulties, low self-esteem and problems with motivation.
Background and approach
She also works with concerns such as grief, addictions, anger and intimacy-related issues. Her approach is rooted in Client-Centred Therapy, which focuses on listening and understanding. In practice this means Samiyah asks about what matters most to the person and reflects back what she hears.
The aim is to help someone make sense of their feelings and decide what to try next. Samiyah also pays attention to life context and practical challenges. She can discuss issues like family problems, communication breakdowns, fertility or immigration concerns alongside emotional symptoms.
That practical attention helps people find coping steps they can use between sessions. If someone is unsure where to begin, she offers a gentle first meeting to clarify goals and match expectations. Samiyah encourages people to take small steps, and to use the sessions to build clearer thinking, steadier moods and better ways of handling daily pressures.

Approaches Samiyah lists
Listing an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor names and does not check training records.
How Samiyah works online
The same approach supports work on trauma or grief by allowing a person to lead the conversation. That gentle stance can help someone make sense of painful experiences and decide on small next steps for day-to-day life.
Choosing the right way of working is part of therapy. Samiyah will collaborate with each person to decide what feels helpful, checking goals and preferences as sessions progress. This shared decision making helps match the approach to the client’s needs.
The biography does not specify which online or in-person session types are offered, so confirm the available formats before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Phone or video options often suit people who need a quieter place to think, less visual demand, or a way to keep appointments around work and family commitments.
