About Niveen

Niveen Rajabdeen is an ACA counsellor who focuses on compassionate, practical support for people facing major life stress. She works with anxiety, grief, relationship strain and the fatigue that comes from caregiving or burnout. Her style is warm and straightforward and she aims to help people feel less stuck.

She helps people who feel overwhelmed, disconnected or unsure how to move forward. Sessions often look at immediate coping strategies alongside longer term changes in behaviour and thinking. Niveen uses everyday language and collaborative problem solving so people know what to expect in a session.

Her background combines counselling, psychotherapy, yoga, meditation and Ayurvedic ideas. That mix allows her to blend talking work with practices that calm the nervous system and build resilience. She draws on approaches such as cognitive behavioural work and emotion-focused methods to address thoughts, feelings and relationship patterns.

Niveen also brings experience supporting people through grief, endings and life transitions, including end-of-life and hospice related concerns. She pays attention to cultural identity and how it shapes the way people make meaning of loss and change.

People who see Niveen can expect a collaborative plan that fits their goals. She supports practical coping, clearer communication in relationships and steps towards greater balance and self-awareness.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online counselling

Niveen commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Emotionally-Focused Therapy in her work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then focus on actions that match their values. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) looks at patterns in relationships and helps people express underlying emotions so connections can change for the better.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. She will work with each person to choose methods that suit their goals, preferences and the issues they bring. That decision is collaborative and can change as things progress.

The biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Many people find online counselling makes it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, lets shorter check-ins happen more often, and removes travel time. If you want to explore whether remote work will suit your needs, use the Start Therapy button and complete the matching questionnaire to begin the conversation.
