Raheema Harris , BACP

Raheema Harris is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression and relationship concerns. She supports those coping with grief, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related problems, anger and life changes. She works with people dealing with caregiver strain, cancer-related stress, codependency and feelings of isolation or emptiness.

Raheema follows a person-centred style that aims to make each session feel respectful and non-judgemental. She listens closely and tailors conversations to what matters most to the individual. Sessions focus on practical steps as well as understanding patterns that keep problems going.

She draws on cognitive behavioural therapy, which helps spot and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours. She also uses Jungian ideas to consider personal meaning and recurring themes in a person’s life. Mindfulness techniques are folded into work to support stress reduction and grounding in difficult moments.

Raheema holds membership of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, shown as BACP. She has three years of professional experience working with adults in the United Kingdom and offers sessions in English.

In sessions she aims to create a clear plan that reflects each person’s goals. She supports clients step by step, helping them build coping skills, improve communication, and find a stronger sense of purpose and self-worth.

How therapy approaches work online

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person in the room. The therapist offers empathy, acceptance and careful listening to help a person find their own answers. This approach suits people who want a respectful space to talk through feelings and choices.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions. It teaches simple strategies to change unhelpful thinking and to build new habits. CBT is often useful for anxiety, low mood and stress management.

Choosing an approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and will try different ways of working to find what fits best. That process is collaborative and adjusted as therapy progresses.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to suit different needs. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat can be a shorter check-in, and messaging allows step-by-step reflection over time. These formats make it easier to fit sessions around work, caregiving and other commitments.
