Zaid Kazi
Compassionate person-centred counsellor
About Zaid
Zaid Kazi offers a calm, non-judgemental space for people feeling overwhelmed. He introduces himself simply and speaks plainly about challenges like stress, anxiety, depression and addiction. Sessions are paced to each person’s comfort and needs.
Zaid works in English, Hindi and Urdu and practises from the United Kingdom. He uses a person-centred way of working that listens to what matters most to the individual. That approach focuses on the person’s own strengths and choices rather than imposing solutions.
Background and approach
Zaid also draws on cognitive behavioural techniques to help spot unhelpful thinking patterns and build practical coping skills. Mindfulness methods are used to bring attention to the present moment and reduce reactivity. For people who have experienced trauma, trauma-focused tools are introduced carefully and at a pace the person feels ready for.
Solution-focused ideas are offered when the aim is to identify small, achievable changes and next steps. Zaid has five years of experience and is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. He helps with a wide range of concerns including grief, sleep and eating difficulties, relationship and intimacy-related issues, parenting stress, and career worries.
Many people come wanting support with anger, codependency, attachment or feelings of emptiness. Others seek help for bipolar symptoms, ADHD challenges, substance use, or coping after separation and loss. Zaid aims to work collaboratively, helping each person decide which practical steps to try next.

How Zaid’s approaches work online
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening carefully and following the person’s lead. Online sessions give space for the individual to set pace and priorities while the therapist offers empathy and validation. This approach is useful for people feeling overwhelmed or unsure where to start.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at thoughts, feelings and behaviours and teaches practical skills to change patterns. Delivered over video or messaging it can include exercises, tracking mood or short behavioural experiments to try between sessions. CBT is often chosen for anxiety, low mood and stress-related problems.
Mindfulness therapy involves simple attention practices to reduce reactivity and build present-moment awareness. These practices can be guided in a video call or shared as short audio or text exercises for use between sessions.
Choosing a therapeutic approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work together with the person to decide which methods suit their goals and comfort level, and may try different techniques to find what helps most.
Online work is flexible and practical. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions need less bandwidth, live chat suits quick check-ins, and text messaging supports ongoing reflection. These options help people fit therapy around work, family life and other commitments.
