Fadeela Abdelmawla
Gentle integrative therapy for life's hard moments
About Fadeela
Fadeela Abdelmawla brings eight years of clinical experience to her practice in the United Kingdom. She holds BACP and NCPS credentials and focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, and major life changes. Fadeela offers a calm, creative space where clients can slow down and understand what they are feeling.
She uses an integrative humanistic person-centred approach, adapting methods to each person’s needs.
Background and approach
This means sessions are guided by the individual and their goals. Fadeela often works with metaphor, active imagination, and guided imagery when words do not fully capture an experience. She also draws on a range of evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address specific problems.
These tools help with panic attacks, post-traumatic stress, attachment wounds, and communication problems. The focus is on practical steps and clearer understanding rather than labels. Sessions explore self-compassion and gentle self-inquiry to reduce self-criticism and unrealistic expectations.
Fadeela supports people through endings and life transitions, helping them make decisions that respect who they have been and who they want to become. Therapy is collaborative and paced to suit each person. Clients can expect a mix of talking, creative exercises, and structured techniques aimed at easing distress and building coping skills.
The aim is gradual change that feels meaningful and manageable.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online therapy
Fadeela commonly blends person-centred work with evidence-based techniques to meet real-life problems. Person-centred therapy focuses on listening, empathy and collaboration so the client’s goals guide each session. This approach helps when someone needs a steady, non-directive space to make sense of feelings and choices.She also uses cognitive and trauma-informed tools to address specific symptoms. Cognitive techniques look at unhelpful thoughts and how they affect mood and behaviour, which can help with anxiety and panic. Trauma-informed methods include gentle pacing and grounding to address post-traumatic stress and distress without pushing too quickly.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the therapeutic process. Fadeela will work with each person to decide which methods suit their needs, goals and preferences. This is a collaborative process that can shift as progress is made.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different situations. Video is useful for in-depth work and visual cues, phone sessions can be simpler when less bandwidth is available, and messaging or live chat can suit brief check-ins or those who prefer writing. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives and stay connected across locations.
