About Fauzia
Fauzia Hoque is a counsellor who uses a person-centred way of working. She focuses on helping people cope with anxiety, stress, depression and relationship difficulties. She also supports people facing grief, trauma, addiction and issues related to identity and intimacy.
She brings nine years of experience working with a wide range of concerns. Her background includes private practice and work in a secondary school setting, where she uses age-appropriate approaches like play and art to help people express themselves. This lets those who find words difficult show feelings in other ways.
Sessions are shaped around the person in front of her. Fauzia draws on client-centred practice alongside cognitive behavioural and solution-focused ideas, plus mindfulness techniques. She adapts methods to suit each person’s goals and situation rather than following a single fixed method.
Her approach is practical and relational. Conversations aim to identify patterns, try small changes and work on coping strategies for day-to-day life. She also addresses longer-term themes such as attachment, abandonment and body image when they come up.
Fauzia works in English and practises in the United Kingdom. She is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, recorded as BACP, and brings a steady, empathetic style to sessions. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to therapist availability.

How her approaches can work online
Fauzia commonly uses client-centred practice and cognitive behavioural ideas to shape sessions. Client-centred work focuses on listening, empathy and what matters to the person; it helps build trust and clarity about goals. Cognitive behavioural ideas look at links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and are useful for anxiety, low mood and sleep issues.She also draws on mindfulness techniques to help with grounding and stress management. Mindfulness involves simple attention exercises and can be practised between sessions to manage tension or rumination. Finding the right mix of these approaches is part of the process and will be decided together. The therapist will work collaboratively to match methods to the client’s needs, goals and preferences rather than imposing one way of working.
The practical benefits of online work include easier scheduling and fitting sessions around everyday life. Online sessions can reduce travel time and make it simpler to maintain regular contact during busy weeks. Confirm the exact session formats available before booking, as options can vary; this helps ensure the chosen way of meeting fits with your routine and aims.
