About Hania
PACFA, 8 years experience. Hania Masoud works with adults on stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and relationship concerns. She also addresses parenting, grief, intimacy issues, anger and self-esteem concerns. Sessions are offered in English and Arabic.
Hania uses a mix of therapies to suit the problem at hand. She draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help with unhelpful thoughts and avoidance. Attachment-Based and Client-Centred approaches guide work on relationships and connection.
In practical terms she helps people notice patterns that keep them stuck. That can mean learning skills for emotional regulation or trying new ways of communicating. She also supports people facing separation, blended family stress, caregiver strain or body image concerns.
Her background includes focused work with trauma, post-traumatic stress and domestic violence issues. She runs Circles of Security Parenting facilitation and has spent eight years in clinical practice. PACFA is listed as her credential.
Sessions are conversational and aim to build clearer thinking and steadier emotional responses. Hania encourages small, concrete changes that fit a person’s life. People can expect a mix of talking, practical exercises and strategies to practise between sessions.
To begin, clients are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. The subscription used for sessions can be cancelled at any time. International clients are not accepted.
Approaches used in online counselling
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on accepting difficult feelings while taking action that reflects personal values. It can help with anxiety, avoidance and making changes that matter to the person. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings and behaviour. It helps people spot unhelpful thought patterns and try practical skills to reduce distress and improve coping. Attachment-Based Therapy concentrates on how early relationship patterns affect current connections. It is useful for intimacy issues, attachment concerns and family of origin problems. Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will explore goals, preferences and the presenting problems together to decide which methods to try. This is a collaborative process and can change as needs evolve. Please confirm which session formats are offered before booking, as the biography does not list them. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions into daily life, for example by reducing travel time, offering shorter check-ins, or allowing sessions to occur during a work break. It also enables continuation of care when schedules change. Appropriately qualified therapists can adapt these approaches so the work remains practical and focused on real-life problems.Areas of expertise
