About Iffat
Iffat Iqbal is a BACP-registered counsellor in the United Kingdom with three years of clinical experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, self-esteem and coping with life changes. Sessions are offered in English and aimed at people seeking practical, conversational therapy.
Iffat uses client-centred therapy as her core approach. That means sessions concentrate on the person in front of her, with space to talk and to be heard. She aims to help people make sense of their feelings and to try new ways of coping in day-to-day life.
Her work often covers attachment and abandonment concerns. She also supports people dealing with body image, caregiver stress, isolation and midlife questions. Practical topics such as money worries and communication problems are part of the agenda when they arise.
Iffat describes her role as working alongside clients to set goals and make small changes. She frames sessions as collaborative conversations rather than directive teaching. Clients can expect focused discussion and gradual steps toward clearer decision-making and improved self-understanding.
Sessions use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time; fees vary by location. To begin, people are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the See online therapy options button. International clients are not currently accepted.

How client-centred approaches work for online counselling
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening to the person's experience and responding with acceptance and clarity. It helps when someone needs to talk through difficult feelings like anxiety, grief or shame, and when the aim is to strengthen self-understanding and decision-making. The therapist follows the client's pace and priorities rather than imposing a fixed plan.Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. The counsellor will work collaboratively with the client to identify goals, try different ways of working, and adjust methods based on what helps most. This is a step-by-step exploration rather than a one-time choice.
Confirm the exact session formats before booking, as they are not specified here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when that suits a person. They also let people choose setups that suit them on a given day, such as using video for deeper conversation or opting for a shorter audio check-in when time is limited. Registered or accredited professionals can guide clients on which format will best meet their needs and goals.
