About Frieda

Frieda Majeed offers a calm, person-focused approach to counselling rooted in Client-Centred Therapy. She believes each person knows their own story and brings strengths that help them move through hard times. Frieda uses a respectful, listening-first style to help people find clearer ways forward.

She has worked in the United Kingdom for 19 years and has supported people with stress, anxiety and depression. Frieda also helps those facing trauma and abuse, grief and loss, and difficulties with addiction. She brings experience with relationship and intimacy-related issues, as well as concerns around parenting, sleep and eating.

Frieda works with people dealing with complex life challenges such as bipolar disorder, ADHD and compassion fatigue. She also addresses family problems, blended family issues and the strain of caregiving. Other areas she covers include career worries, low self-esteem, anger, isolation and finding life purpose.

Sessions are offered in English, Hindi, Punjabi and Urdu, which can help when language comfort matters. Her BACP credential indicates membership of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, which she holds alongside her years of practice.

To begin, people follow an initial matching process and then schedule sessions according to Frieda's availability. The approach in therapy focuses on listening, understanding and working together so clients can try new ways of coping and make practical changes that fit their life.

How Client-Centred Therapy works online

Client-Centred Therapy centres on listening and on treating the person as the expert in their own life. In practice this means the counsellor offers empathy and reflective listening, helping people uncover their own resources and next steps. This approach can help with anxiety, depression, grief and relationship concerns.

The same person-focused stance applies to other issues Frieda supports, such as trauma recovery, stress management and navigating life changes. Sessions aim to create space for someone to talk, be heard and try out new ways of coping with practical day-to-day problems.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist and client will talk about needs, goals and what feels comfortable, then agree how to work together. That might mean trying a few ways of working until the best fit is found.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current options when booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, remove travel time and offer more flexible scheduling. It can also allow for shorter check-ins when time is limited or for quieter, more focused conversations when that suits the client.
