Javeria Khan

Javeria Khan is a counsellor practising in the United Kingdom who focuses on helping people facing anger, stress and relationship strain. She aims to create a calm space where someone can talk through difficult feelings and find practical ways to cope. Javeria works in English, Hindi and Urdu and draws on nine years of experience in mental health.

She frames her work around person-centred values, which means listening closely and shaping sessions to each persons needs. That approach is combined with psychodynamic ideas to look at how past patterns can show up now. Emotion-Focused Therapy is also part of her practice, bringing attention to emotions so they can be better understood and expressed.

Javeria has a BSc (Hons) in Psychology, a Foundation Degree in Arts and a BA (Hons) in Counselling. She is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, listed as BACP. Her training and background inform how she tailors conversations and plans with people.

In sessions she prioritises respect, empathy and what Carl Rogers called unconditional positive regard. That means working without judgement and helping someone notice feelings rather than avoid them. The tone is practical and humane, with a focus on what the person wants to change.

People consult her for a wide range of concerns beyond anger, including anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, intimacy issues, parenting stresses and workplace pressures. She encourages small, manageable steps and reviews progress together as therapy continues.

How therapy approaches translate to online work

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on being heard and understood; online sessions offer space to be listened to without pressure and to shape conversations around what matters most. Emotion-Focused Therapy helps people notice and name their feelings, which supports work on anger, grief and intimacy by making emotions easier to recognise and talk about. Psychodynamic ideas look at how past relationships influence current reactions, helping someone spot recurring patterns and respond differently.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The counsellor will work together with the person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That collaborative planning means the focus may shift over time as needs change.

Practical benefits of working online include fitting sessions around work or family life, reducing travel time and choosing a quieter time that suits a busy day. Different formats and scheduling options may be available, so confirm current session choices before booking. The aim is to make talking to a counsellor easier to fit into everyday life while focusing on the issues the person wants to change.
