Samavia Chaudhary, BACP

Samavia Chaudhary is a counsellor who uses a person-centred way of working. She draws on Client-Centred, Mindfulness and Solution-Focused approaches to shape sessions around each person. Samavia aims to make therapy straightforward and practical for people feeling stuck or overwhelmed.

She keeps sessions grounded in what the individual needs. Conversations focus on small, actionable steps as well as understanding what is causing distress. The pace and goals are set together so people feel involved in decisions about their care.

Samavia has eight years of experience and holds BACP accreditation, which she lists as her professional credential. That background informs how she listens and plans each session, while staying flexible about techniques and timing.

Common themes she supports include stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, grief and coping with life changes. She also works with concerns such as compassion fatigue, trauma and abuse, eating and sleeping difficulties, anger, career questions, bipolar and ADHD related worries.

The therapist offers both short-term solutions and longer-term counselling depending on what someone prefers. Sessions aim to be non-judgemental and practical, with attention to the person’s individual strengths.

How her approaches translate to online counselling

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening without judgement and helping people find their own answers. In an online setting this means the counsellor mirrors what matters to the person and supports clearer choices. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple awareness practices to manage stress and intense feelings; online sessions can introduce short breathing or grounding exercises to use between meetings. Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on practical steps and small goals, which can be reviewed each week to track progress.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The counsellor will talk about options and try different techniques to see what fits best with a person’s needs and preferences. Goals, pace and methods are agreed together so the work stays relevant and manageable.

The practical benefits of online therapy include easier fitting of sessions into a busy life and fewer travel commitments. It can make scheduling simpler around work or family routines and allow quick check-ins when progress needs a short review. The biography does not list specific session formats here, so confirm which formats are offered before booking. Registered or accredited professionals on the platform can guide choices to suit goals and daily life.
