About Frieda

Frieda Majeed is a counsellor who uses a client-centred approach to help people facing strong emotions and life stress. She works in the United Kingdom and brings 19 years of experience supporting people through anxiety, grief and difficult changes. Frieda speaks English, Hindi, Punjabi and Urdu which can help when language matters in therapy.

Frieda believes each person knows their own story and has strengths to build on. Sessions focus on listening carefully, reflecting what the client says and helping them make sense of painful feelings. This way of working suits people who want a respectful, non-judgemental space to talk and to explore options at their own pace.

Over nearly two decades she has helped people dealing with family problems, relationship and intimacy difficulties, and worries about parenting. She also supports those managing trauma, addictions, eating and sleeping difficulties, and challenges like jealousy, guilt or feelings of emptiness.

Her practice includes people coping with major life changes such as illness, caring responsibilities, or bereavement. Frieda offers steady, straightforward help with practical coping strategies as well as emotional support.

To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions. Sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time, and international clients are accepted. Frieda is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, listed as BACP.

Client-Centred Care and Online Support

Frieda uses a client-centred approach which means she places the person's experience at the heart of therapy. This way of working involves active listening, reflecting back what the person says, and helping them recognise their own strengths. It is often helpful for issues like anxiety, grief, relationship concerns and feelings of emptiness.

The emphasis is on a respectful, non-judgemental relationship. Frieda will work collaboratively to find the right way forward, so the approach can change as needs and goals become clearer. Together they decide what helps best, whether that means focusing on coping strategies, talking through past events, or building day-to-day routines.

Practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions into busy schedules and reducing travel time. Many people find it easier to keep therapy going when sessions can be scheduled around work or caring duties. Confirm the current session formats before booking so you know which options are available, and consider how a given format would fit into your day and your communication preferences.
