About Hiba

Hiba Choksy is a BACP-registered counsellor based in the United Kingdom with four years of professional experience. She works with stress, anxiety, parenting concerns, self-esteem and coping with life changes, and lists ADHD and bipolar among her focus areas. Sessions are conducted in English.

Hiba approaches sessions from a client-centred perspective. She treats the person, not just the problem, and works at the client’s own pace. Conversations are practical and focused on the issues the client brings. The therapist encourages openness and regular feedback so the work can be adjusted as it progresses.

In session she helps people name what is difficult and identify small steps forward. She pays attention to cultural background and how family patterns and generational experiences affect current stress. That includes discussing communication patterns, boundaries and common struggles such as low confidence or parenthood pressures.

Hiba aims to make early sessions straightforward and practical. Initial meetings clarify what the client hopes to change and set simple goals. Later sessions look at what has helped before, what gets in the way now, and test out new ways of coping.

People often come for support with relationship interaction, body image worries, eating concerns, grief around illness, and adapting to major life events. Hiba also lists focus on attachment issues, autism and Asperger Syndrome, and blended family or divorce-related strains as part of her practice. She asks people to use the platform’s booking flow to choose online therapy options and to schedule a first session.

How Hiba uses client-centred work online

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters to the client. The counsellor follows the person's lead, helps them make sense of their experience, and supports practical decisions about next steps. This approach is useful for issues such as low self-esteem, anxiety, parenting pressures and coping with change.

Choosing the best approach is part of the work. Hiba will discuss the client’s goals, preferences and what has helped before, and together they will decide how to proceed. That collaborative process can include trying different ways of talking and checking in on what feels most useful.

Session formats are not specified in the supplied biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions around daily life, for example shorter check-ins during a lunch break or not travelling for appointments. It can also help when quieter surroundings are easier to arrange, or when a conversation without video is preferred because of bandwidth or comfort. Registered or accredited professionals use these practical arrangements to help sessions fit into a client's routines.
