Muna Salaad, BACP

Muna Salaad is a counsellor with six years' experience who offers a calm, non-judgemental space for people to talk about what matters to them. She holds BACP accreditation, and she emphasises the importance of the therapeutic relationship as the main place where change happens. Muna works with many kinds of difficulty and takes each concern seriously.

Her practice covers common problems such as anxiety, depression, stress and grief. She also supports people coping with relationship strain, addictions, trauma and abuse, and issues connected to parenting and family life. Work and career stresses, self-esteem and anger are other areas she helps people address.

Muna uses a mix of well-known approaches including Attachment-Based methods, Client-Centred work, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness and Psychodynamic ideas. In sessions she aims to listen closely, reflect what she hears and gently challenge unhelpful patterns so people can try different ways of coping.

She has particular experience supporting bereavement, addiction, and physical or emotional abuse. The profile also highlights work with pregnancy-related issues such as termination, IVF, stillbirth, traumatic birth and postnatal depression.

Her wider focus includes areas like chronic illness and pain, caregiving stress, attachment and adoption concerns, codependency and body image. Muna offers both shorter and longer-term work and encourages people to find the right rhythm of sessions for them.

How Muna’s approaches can work online

Muna draws on attachment-based ideas and client-centred practice to build a steady, trusting relationship. Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships influence current patterns, helping people understand why they react as they do. Client-centred practice focuses on listening, acceptance and helping people find their own solutions, useful for issues like low self-esteem and relationship problems.

She also uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) to help identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours. CBT is practical and often involves simple exercises between sessions to try new ways of coping with anxiety, depression or stress.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapy itself. Muna will work with each person to choose methods that fit their needs, goals and preferences. That choice is made together and can change as therapy progresses.

If you are considering online work, please confirm which session formats are currently offered before booking, as the biography does not list specific options. Online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. They can also suit people who prefer not to be on camera or who need to join from a quieter place during the day. Registered and accredited professionals use these options to help therapy fit into everyday life without requiring a complete schedule change.
