About Javeria

Javeria Khan works with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and family concerns, trauma and abuse, grief, intimacy and a range of other life difficulties. She uses person-centred and psychodynamic approaches alongside Emotionally-Focused Therapy to help people talk through feelings and make practical changes. Javeria is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has nine years of experience in the mental health field.

She gained a BSc (Hons) in Psychology, a Foundation Degree in Arts, and a BA (Hons) in Counselling. She also practises person-centred experiential counselling for depression (PCE-CfD). These qualifications inform how she listens and how she plans sessions.

In sessions she focuses on what the person brings in the room and how their past and present relate. Conversations look at relationships, patterns of thinking and recurring feelings. Work may include looking at attachment, periods of loss or separation, and how cultural or family pressures affect choices.

Javeria describes her style as grounded in the person-centred values of unconditional positive regard, empathy and congruence, together with psychodynamic thinking about earlier life experiences. She also uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy ideas when addressing relationship and intimacy issues.

Practical skills are part of the work. Sessions can include short-term solution-focused steps as well as deeper exploration over time. Javeria aims to help people manage everyday problems such as sleep, eating, parenting and work stress while also addressing issues like grief, trauma or long-standing patterns of coping.

How her therapeutic approaches work in online sessions

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person speaking freely while the counsellor listens without judgement; it helps when someone needs to be heard and to make sense of their feelings. Emotionally-Focused Therapy looks at patterns in emotional responses within relationships and aims to improve emotional connection and clarity about attachment needs. Narrative Therapy helps people separate themselves from problems by examining the stories they tell about their lives and considering alternative meanings.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss which methods fit the person’s current goals, preferences and the issues brought to sessions. That decision is collaborative and can change as progress is made.

The practical benefits of online sessions depend on the available formats, so confirm the current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit counselling around daily life, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also allows people to continue sessions if they move or are in a different country, and it can make arranging appointments outside standard office hours more feasible.
