About Amaleed

Amaleed Alwan is a counsellor registered with NCPS and has six years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. She sees people concerned about stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, low self-esteem, and motivation. She also works with those facing life changes and people managing ADHD-related challenges.

She draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy to help clients name and work through difficult emotions. She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people try new responses to stuck patterns. Sessions are conversational and practical, with attention to feelings and patterns that keep problems repeating.

Amaleed focuses on attachment-related issues and relationship patterns that affect daily life. She supports people dealing with blended family tensions, fatherhood issues, caregiver stress, and communication problems. She also helps with body image, guilt, shame, and challenges linked to immigration and end-of-life care.

Her approach keeps things straightforward. She listens to what matters most, helps people notice emotional triggers, and practices small changes in thinking and behaviour. Clients can expect a mix of feeling-focused work and practical steps to manage anxiety, low mood, or overwhelm.

Sessions are offered in Arabic as well as English, and Amaleed accepts international clients. To begin, users complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the site button.

How her approaches work in online sessions

Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people identify and name core emotions that drive relationship and personal patterns. It looks at how feelings shape reactions and helps create new ways of responding to strong emotions.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy focuses on noticing thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them. It supports people in choosing actions that reflect their values, which can help with anxiety, low mood, and life transitions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk through what feels most useful based on the client’s needs, goals, and preferences, and will adapt the methods as therapy progresses.

Session formats are not specified in the supplied biography, so confirm current session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around work, family commitments, or travel, and they can allow shorter check-ins or phone-first conversations when that helps. Registered or accredited professionals can use online meetings to combine emotion-focused discussion with practical exercises and behavioural tasks that suit everyday life.
