About Niveen
Niveen Rajabdeen is an ACA counsellor who offers a warm, collaborative approach for people feeling overwhelmed or stuck. She meets people where they are and focuses on practical steps to help with stress, anxiety, relationships and major life changes.
She draws on a mix of talking therapies and body-aware practices. Sessions often include mindfulness, breathing and ways to calm the nervous system alongside conversation. This helps people manage symptoms of anxiety, depression, trauma and burnout in everyday life.
Her work covers relationship and family concerns, intimacy and communication problems, grief and loss, and issues around self-esteem and codependency. She also supports people dealing with chronic illness, caregiving stress, career pressure and the emotional fallout of major transitions.
Over seven years she has worked across counselling, psychotherapy and wellbeing programs. Her background includes yoga, meditation and approaches that consider cultural identity and life context. This blend informs how she tailors support for different needs.
Niveen aims to create a space where people feel heard and able to take small, sustainable steps forward. If someone wants help sorting feelings, improving relationships or finding new ways to cope, she encourages them to reach out and discuss their needs before starting work together.
How her approaches work for online therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people notice their thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It is useful for anxiety, low mood and problems that involve feeling stuck. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and gives practical strategies to change unhelpful patterns, which can help with anxiety, depression and stress. Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early relationships shape current patterns and can be helpful for intimacy and relationship difficulties.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and together decide which methods to try. This is a collaborative process and can change as needs shift during therapy.
Confirm the session formats available before booking, as the original profile does not list specific options. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - for example, they can reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins during a work break, or offer alternatives when visual connection is difficult. Discuss practical arrangements with the therapist when you book so sessions suit your schedule and daily routines.
