Raheema Harris, BACP

Raheema Harris is a United Kingdom based therapist who holds BACP credential - membership of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - and brings three years of professional experience to her practice. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, grief, and challenges with self-esteem and motivation. Her practice also includes support for those affected by domestic abuse, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related issues, and complex family dynamics. Raheema pays close attention to each person's story, adapting conversations and treatment plans to fit individual circumstances and goals. She approaches clients with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, creating space for people to explore feelings of emptiness, guilt, shame, isolation, and issues like codependency, control problems, and commitment concerns. Raheema aims to empower clients to take steps toward a more fulfilling life, offering guidance for coping with life changes, caregiver stress, and the emotional impact of serious illness such as cancer. Seeking therapy can take courage, and Raheema focuses on supporting and strengthening that courage while helping clients build practical skills, emotional insight, and confidence to move forward.

Therapeutic Approaches for Online Sessions

Raheema draws on client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and mindfulness techniques to support clients in online sessions. Client-centered therapy focuses on creating a nonjudgmental space where the client leads the conversation and the therapist offers empathy and unconditional positive regard - this approach helps with issues like low self-esteem, relationship concerns, and coping with life changes. CBT helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and patterns, then develop practical skills to change behavior and reduce symptoms of anxiety and depression. Mindfulness therapy teaches simple practices to increase present-moment awareness and reduce stress, which can be useful for managing anxiety, anger, and difficult emotions.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Raheema collaborates with each client to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and personal preferences. Together they adapt techniques and pace so the work feels practical and relevant.

Online therapy with Raheema is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for those balancing work, family, or mobility needs. These options make it easier to access consistent support from registered professionals while fitting therapy into everyday life and different schedules.
