About Fauzia

Fauzia Hoque is a person-centred counsellor who brings nearly a decade of experience to her work with individuals facing a wide range of emotional and life challenges. She has supported people dealing with substance misuse, depression and anxiety, experiences of emotional, physical and sexual abuse, gender identity questions, couples concerns, and loss and bereavement. Her approach is rooted in creating a safe space where clients can explore their feelings and begin to rebuild strengths and resilience.

In addition to her private practice, Fauzia works in a secondary school setting where she uses play therapy to help young people express themselves in ways that feel natural and age appropriate. She also integrates art-based methods for adults and children, recognising that creative expression can reveal emotions and experiences that are difficult to put into words. These nonverbal tools often open routes to understanding and healing that complement talking therapy.

Fauzia draws on a range of therapeutic models and skills and adapts her work to the needs of each person. She takes a holistic view and focuses on building authentic, trusting relationships, which she sees as central to meaningful change. Fauzia is a member of the BACP - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - which denotes professional affiliation with the national body for counsellors and psychotherapists in the United Kingdom.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Fauzia works from a client-centred framework, which places the person's experiences and perspectives at the heart of therapy. This approach emphasises empathy, active listening, and supporting clients to find their own solutions, and it suits people who value a collaborative, non-directive relationship with their therapist. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, is used to help clients identify and shift unhelpful patterns of thinking and behaviour - it is often applied to concerns like anxiety, depression, and stress where practical strategies can support day-to-day coping. Mindfulness Therapy is offered as a way to cultivate present-moment awareness and gentle acceptance of emotions, which can assist with stress management, emotional regulation, and building resilience.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Fauzia works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She tailors sessions by blending techniques as appropriate and reviews the plan with clients as therapy progresses.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These formats can make it easier to access regular support without travel, to fit sessions around work or family commitments, and to maintain continuity of care when in-person meetings are difficult. Licensed professionals can adapt their methods effectively across these formats to support meaningful progress.
