Naasirah Hamid, BACP

Naasirah Hamid helps people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, low mood, or relationship difficulties. She also supports those impacted by trauma and abuse, and people struggling with self-esteem and motivation. Naasirah practises with warmth and respect and aims to make talking about hard things easier.

She works in a straightforward, person-focused way. Sessions are shaped around each person's needs and goals rather than a fixed recipe. Conversations are guided so the client feels heard and understood while exploring practical steps forward.

Naasirah uses approaches that include attachment-based thinking, client-centred work, and cognitive behavioural tools to break unhelpful patterns. That means she pays attention to how past relationships affect present feelings, listens without judgement, and teaches simple skills to manage thoughts and behaviours.

Her background includes five years of practice in the United Kingdom and registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. She draws on this experience to offer calm, practical support for people in distress.

Many clients come wanting clearer direction, fewer anxious days, or better ways to handle conflict and painful memories. Naasirah aims to build safety in the room and help people find realistic changes they can use between sessions. If you are ready to start, she can work with you to plan the next step.

How her approaches shape online therapy

Naasirah uses attachment-based ideas, client-centred conversation, and cognitive behavioural tools in her work. Attachment-based therapy looks at how early relationships influence current feelings and patterns, which can help when trust or closeness feels difficult. Client-centred therapy focuses on listening and understanding from the client's point of view, offering space to make sense of experience. Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, introduces practical techniques to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours and can be useful for anxiety and low mood.

Choosing the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will work with each person to decide which methods suit their goals and preferences. That choice can change over time as needs evolve, and the plan will be reviewed together during sessions.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, such as avoiding travel and using appointment times that match work or family routines. Confirm the session options available with the therapist before booking so you know which formats are offered. The focus online remains the same as in person - building understanding, practising new skills, and making changes that help day-to-day life.
