About Hajran
Hajran Khan is a counsellor who focuses on helping people facing stress, anxiety and life transitions. She works with individuals who want to build confidence, manage mood difficulties, or find clearer direction in work and relationships. Her style is straightforward and respectful, with an emphasis on practical steps and self-awareness.
With 16 years of professional experience, Hajran draws on a mix of body-focused work and evidence-informed talking therapies. That includes somatic approaches that pay attention to how the body holds stress, and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to spot thinking patterns that get in the way.
Background and approach
She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and attachment-based ideas where helpful. Hajran sees each person as the expert on their life and aims to create a calm, non-judgemental space to talk things through. Sessions often combine talking, learning new skills, and simple body-based techniques to regulate strong emotions.
She encourages small, manageable steps that fit everyday life. Based in the United Kingdom and registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, Hajran offers sessions in English. She works with issues including depression, trauma and abuse, grief, relationship concerns, addictions, parenting strain and career stress.
She also supports people dealing with ADHD, chronic illness, body-image problems and compassion fatigue. People can try different ways of working and adapt as needs change. Hajran aims to help people find tools that feel useful and sustainable rather than one-size-fits-all solutions.
How somatic and talking approaches work online
Hajran uses a blend of somatic work and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to support people with stress, anxiety and life changes. Somatic work pays attention to bodily signals and simple movement or breath practices to reduce tension and overwhelm, which can help when emotions feel stuck. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing thoughts and feelings without getting caught up in them, and on clarifying personal values to guide meaningful action.Finding the right approach is part of the process and is decided together. The therapist will listen to your goals and preferences, try methods that suit you, and adjust the plan as you learn what helps. This collaborative way means techniques are tailored to everyday life and paced to your comfort.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video lets you see each other for body-awareness work and conversation, while phone or messaging can feel easier on busy days. These options help people fit therapy around work, family and travel, making it easier to keep progress going even when life is busy.
