Muna Salaad, BACP

Muna Salaad is a counsellor with six years' experience who aims to provide a calm, non-judgemental space for people to talk about difficult issues. She holds BACP accreditation, which means she is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. Her practice emphasises the relationship between counsellor and client as the place where change often happens.

Muna works with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, grief and stress. She also supports people facing addictions, trauma and abuse, difficult relationships and workplace problems. Parenting strains, compassion fatigue and life transitions are also within her scope.

Her approach draws on attachment-based work and client-centred listening to help people feel heard and understood. She uses cognitive behavioural ideas and mindfulness to help people spot unhelpful patterns and try new ways of coping. Elements of psychodynamic thinking may be used to look at deeper patterns that affect current life.

Muna offers both shorter and longer-term engagement depending on what someone needs. She has experience with bereavement, physical and emotional abuse, pregnancy-related issues such as IVF and postnatal depression, and addiction concerns. Sessions aim to be practical and person-focused, with room to look at feelings, relationships and day-to-day coping.

Sessions are conducted in English and she accepts international clients. People who are unsure how to begin are invited to use the continue button on this profile and complete the short matching questionnaire to arrange a first appointment.

How her approaches shape online care

Attachment-based work focuses on how early and current relationships affect feelings and reactions. It helps people understand patterns in close relationships and feel safer exploring difficult experiences. Client-centred therapy places emphasis on being listened to without judgement. This approach helps people find their own pace and direction in tackling issues by prioritising empathy and acceptance. Cognitive behavioural therapy looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions and offers practical steps to shift unhelpful patterns, which can be useful for anxiety, mood and coping with stress.

Finding the right approach is a shared task. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels manageable, then try methods that fit the person's needs. That collaborative process means the work can change over time, with space for short-term problem-solving or longer exploration.

The profile does not list which session formats are used, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - for example by removing travel time, allowing sessions during a lunch break, or offering a shorter check-in when needed. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt exercises, mindfulness practices and cognitive tools to remote sessions so people can practise skills between meetings.
