About Dilnia
With 13 years of experience and registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), she brings steady support to people during stressful transitions. Dilnia listens for what matters most and helps clients name patterns that keep them stuck.
Her approach combines several therapies so conversations stay focused and useful. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to spot unhelpful thoughts, Emotionally-Focused Therapy to look at attachment and feelings, and Mindfulness to build simple coping skills. Psychodynamic ideas also inform longer-standing patterns that affect relationships.
Sessions are conversational and goal-oriented, with space for reflection. Clients can expect to work on clearer communication, better boundaries, and more stable self-esteem. Practical strategies and small experiments between sessions are common parts of the work.
Dilnia speaks English and Kurdish and works from the United Kingdom. She recognises that starting therapy takes courage and aims to make that first step easier by offering steady, plainspoken support.
How these approaches work for online therapy
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) focuses on feelings and attachment. It helps people understand emotional patterns in relationships and practice clearer, safer ways of responding to loved ones. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and behaviours that keep problems going, and uses short experiments to test new ways of thinking and acting. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce stress and increase calm between sessions.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. Sessions can mix techniques so conversations stay practical and relevant to everyday life.
Confirm the session formats before booking, as the biography does not list specific options. Online work can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy routine, for example by saving travel time, allowing shorter check-ins when needed, or letting people join from a quieter place. The therapist will also discuss how to use home practice tasks between meetings to support steady progress.
