About Fauzia
Fauzia Hoque is a BACP counsellor based in the United Kingdom with nine years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, grief, depression, addictions and a range of other concerns including codependency and attachment issues. Sessions are offered in English and reflect her person-centred style.
She uses person-centred practice as a starting point, listening closely to what each person brings and responding without judgement. Fauzia also draws on cognitive behavioural ideas to help spot unhelpful thinking patterns and solution-focused techniques to set short-term, manageable goals. Mindfulness practices are introduced when helpful to reduce reactivity and improve moment-to-moment awareness.
Her experience includes working with survivors of emotional, physical and sexual abuse, people dealing with gender identity questions, and those coping with loss and bereavement. She also works with people affected by substance misuse and those navigating career stress or eating and sleeping problems. Fauzia has experience supporting issues that often sit alongside codependent patterns, such as communication and control difficulties.
Alongside private practice, she has worked in a secondary school setting using play and art-based approaches with younger clients. She offers creative ways to express difficult feelings when words are hard to find, and adapts techniques to the person in front of her.
People who come to her can expect a straightforward, person-led way of working. To start, a short questionnaire is completed and a first session scheduled so practical goals and next steps can be agreed.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Fauzia uses person-centred counselling, which focuses on listening and reflecting so the client leads the pace and content of sessions. This style helps people who struggle with people-pleasing or losing their sense of self to speak about what matters most to them.She also uses cognitive behavioural techniques to identify patterns of thinking and behaviour that maintain stress and anxiety. CBT is practical and often includes exercises to try between sessions, which many people find useful when working remotely.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. She will discuss your goals and preferences and together you agree which methods to use. That collaborative decision helps shape session goals and the practical steps to work on between meetings.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It can also let someone choose sessions that suit their energy that day, for example a phone call when they prefer not to be on camera or a video session when visual connection helps progress.
