Fadumo Mohamed
Compassionate, practical support for hard times
About Fadumo
Fadumo Mohamed helps people dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship strain, trauma and abuse, grief and depression. She speaks English, Arabic and Somali and works with people from diverse backgrounds. Her approach aims to make the first steps less overwhelming and more manageable.
She frames people as the experts in their own stories and points out strengths they may not see. Sessions focus on practical steps and clear goals rather than long lectures.
Background and approach
Fadumo encourages steady progress and small changes that add up over time. Her work draws on a mix of evidence-informed approaches. She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people accept difficult feelings and commit to meaningful action.
Attachment-based ideas guide conversations about how relationships shape current behaviour and emotions. She also uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy to address painful patterns in close relationships and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing for people working through traumatic memories. Mindfulness practices are offered to help with stress and mood regulation.
Fadumo has 26 years of clinical experience and holds BACP registration, the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy credential. She provides sessions in the United Kingdom and accepts international clients. Appointments can be booked in several online formats to suit different needs.
To begin, a short questionnaire helps match people to the right therapist and then sessions are scheduled according to availability. Subscription billing is used and can be cancelled at any time.

How therapeutic approaches work online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without letting them control actions. It focuses on choosing meaningful behaviour despite discomfort and can help with anxiety, low mood and stress. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns affect current bonds and reactions, and it can help people understand recurring relationship difficulties.Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work together with the client to choose which methods to try based on needs, goals and personal preferences. That collaboration means plans are adjusted over time as progress and feedback shape the work.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging to suit different situations. Video works well for in-depth conversations, phone is useful when bandwidth is limited, and messaging can fit short check-ins or people who prefer not to be on camera. These options make it easier to attend sessions from different time zones and life circumstances while keeping the focus on steady, practical progress.
