About Frieda
Frieda Majeed is a counsellor who works from a client-centred approach. She believes people are the experts in their own lives and aims to create space for them to be heard and understood. Frieda supports people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, relationships, grief and trauma.
She has a steady presence and practical focus in sessions. With 19 years of experience and registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), Frieda draws on a long history of working with common life challenges.
Background and approach
She helps people talk through family tensions, parenting strain and problems with intimacy. She also addresses mood concerns such as depression and bipolar-related difficulties, and supports those affected by grief and loss. Frieda offers help for issues that affect daily routines, including sleep and eating problems, addictions and anger.
She also works with people facing career decisions, identity questions including LGBT matters, and the fallout from trauma or disasters. Practical coping strategies and clearer communication are often part of the work. She speaks English, Hindi, Punjabi and Urdu, which can help people express themselves more comfortably.
Frieda accepts international clients and brings a calm, respectful manner to each session. She encourages small steps and realistic goals so progress feels manageable. If someone is unsure how to start, Frieda recommends a short initial conversation to see if the approach fits.
The aim is straightforward: make space to sort out what matters most and find ways to move forward.

How client-centred work translates to online therapy
Client-centred Therapy places the person’s experience at the heart of the work. The counsellor listens with empathy, reflects what she hears, and helps people find their own answers. This approach is useful for anxiety, relationship concerns, grief and many day-to-day stresses because it focuses on what matters to the individual rather than a fixed programme.Frieda’s way of working emphasises collaboration. She will talk with you about goals and preferences, and together you can decide which techniques to try. That collaborative step helps match the approach to your needs rather than assuming one size fits all.
Practical benefits of online therapy include easier fitting of sessions into busy schedules and reduced travel time. Online work can make it simpler to keep regular appointments around work or caregiving commitments, and it can allow people in different countries to connect with a counsellor who speaks their language. If you need to confirm which session formats are offered, check the therapist’s profile or ask before booking so you know how appointments will be arranged.
