How her approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings while committing to actions that match their values. It is often useful for stress, anxiety and major life transitions where deciding what matters is a priority. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing them with practical behavioural steps to reduce symptoms like low mood or insomnia. Attachment-Based Therapy centres on understanding how past relationships shape current connections and emotional responses, which can help with intimacy and relationship difficulties.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Hajran will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and collaboratively choose techniques that fit. Over time she adjusts the mix of methods based on what is helping and what feels comfortable for the client.
If you are considering online sessions, please confirm available formats before booking as the biography does not list specific options. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - for example it can reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins during a lunch break, or remove the need to be on camera if that helps you engage. Registered and accredited professionals, including counsellors and therapists, commonly use online sessions to reach people who are based elsewhere or who need more flexible scheduling.
