About Javeria

Javeria Khan is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who focuses on men's wellbeing alongside a wide range of emotional and life challenges. She speaks English, Hindi and Urdu and brings nine years of professional experience in mental health to her practice. She aims to treat people with respect, sensitivity and compassion while tailoring sessions to individual needs.

Javeria trained in psychology and counselling, holding a Bachelor of Science (Hons) in Psychology, a Foundation Degree (FDA) and a Bachelor of Arts (Hons) in Counselling. She is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. Her background includes work with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and family concerns, trauma and abuse, grief, and issues such as eating, sleeping and parenting difficulties.

Her main approaches are person-centred therapy and psychodynamic understanding, with additional use of Emotionally-Focused Therapy. In practice this means she centres the conversation on the person in front of her, listens for patterns and past influences, and helps people name and work through emotional experiences.

Clients can expect a warm, non-judgemental way of being listened to. Sessions are shaped around the client's concerns and goals, with attention to cultural, spiritual and social pressures that influence wellbeing. Javeria highlights unconditional positive regard, empathy and congruence as central to her work.

She also draws on narrative and solution-focused ideas when helpful, so conversations can include practical steps alongside exploring personal history. To begin, readers are invited to use the Start Therapy button and complete the short matching questionnaire to schedule according to therapist availability.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online counselling

Client-Centred Therapy puts the person's experience at the heart of the conversation. The counsellor listens with empathy and follows the client's pace to help them clarify feelings and goals. Emotionally-Focused Therapy focuses on identifying and working with strong emotional moments, helping people name and shift patterns that affect relationships and personal wellbeing. Narrative Therapy looks at the stories people tell about themselves and highlights alternative perspectives that can open new choices.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The counsellor will explore your goals, preferences and what feels most helpful, and then suggest ways of working that suit you. That choice is collaborative and can change as the work progresses.

If you are considering online sessions, please confirm the available session formats before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, allow for shorter check-ins when needed and remove travel time. It can also help when quieter surroundings are easier to arrange or when a different setup - for example audio only - helps manage energy or bandwidth. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists often use online options to reach people who cannot attend in person, but check the session options when you begin the matching process.
