About Frieda
Frieda Majeed is a counsellor who uses a client-centred approach to support people facing stress, anxiety and family-related concerns. She works with adults on issues such as grief, depression, addiction and parenting strains. Frieda speaks English, Hindi, Punjabi and Urdu and practises from the United Kingdom.
Her way of working starts by listening without judgement. She encourages people to describe their story in their own words and helps them find personal strengths to build on.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on what matters most to the individual rather than fitting them to a set model. Frieda has almost two decades of professional experience. Over that time she has supported people through trauma and abuse, coping with life changes and compassion fatigue.
She also offers help with relationship and intimacy-related difficulties, sleep and eating concerns, and mood conditions such as bipolar disorder. She can assist with more specific pressures too, including blended family issues, caregiver stress, cancer-related challenges and problems around control, guilt or forgiveness. Frieda is familiar with worries about purpose, isolation and career transitions.
When working together she aims to make the process collaborative. People set the pace, identify goals, and try practical steps between sessions. Frieda describes counselling as a space to make sense of difficult experiences and to find clearer ways forward.

Client-centred counselling online and practical options
Client-Centred Therapy is at the heart of Frieda’s approach. It involves careful listening and reflection so the person feels heard and understood. This style helps with issues like stress, anxiety, relationship strain and parenting pressures by focusing on the client’s own goals and resources.In practice, sessions are collaborative. The therapist will work with the client to identify what matters most and to try small, practical steps between meetings. Together they review what helps and adjust the approach as needed until a comfortable fit is found.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat and text-based messaging. Video calls are useful for a fuller face-to-face feel. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and messaging suit people who prefer to write, want short updates, or need flexible timing. These options make it easier to fit counselling around work, childcare or busy days while keeping the focus on steady progress and collaboration.
