Javeria Khan

I am a qualified BACP registered Counsellor in the UK with 9 years of professional work experience in the mental health field. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, depression, relationship issues, family conflicts, trauma and abuse. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I will tailor our dialogue and sessions to meet your unique and specific needs. I have a BSc (hons) in Psychology, FDA and BA (hons) in Counselling. Therefore, I combine science, psychology, counselling theory and my therapeutic listening skills but most importantly empathy, to understand the nuances of each individuals lived experiences.

 I use intersectionality to understand client’s experience when dealing with social, cultural, religious, spiritual and individual pressures. 

My approach is Person-Centred Therapy with an understanding of the Psychodynamic approach. I feel providing Unconditional Positive Regard, Empathy and Congruence to the client can aid the healing process and help overcome emotional obstacles. I know from my own lived experience taking the first step to seeking a more fulfilling and purposeful life through counselling takes courage and I am here to support you during that process.

Located in North London, at Jay Kay Counselling, I provide a safe, confidential, non-judgmental and understanding environment for you to explore your thoughts, feelings and emotions. I want to ensure, at all times, that you as my client truly feel secure enough to focus on your mental health needs. My talking therapy services include face-to-face, remote sessions, short-term and open-ended therapy.

New clients can quickly get in touch with me by using the contact information provided, so we can allocate an initial assessment for you as soon as possible. 

I arrange with the client an initial 30 mins assessment call to assess suitability of me as your counsellor, free of charge. 

Once agreed to go ahead with the counselling sessions I send a contract form for the client to go through and send it back to me once signed. 

I do offer concessionary rates for those on Universal Credit. Also, I offer sliding scale rates.
