Motivational Interviewing and Trauma-Focused Therapy inform her work when people want to process difficult past events or find the motivation to change.

How Rafiah’s Approaches Translate to Online Work

Rafiah commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness Therapy to address stress and anxiety. CBT helps identify unhelpful thoughts and teaches practical skills to change them, which can be practiced during and between sessions. Mindfulness Therapy focuses on present-moment awareness and simple grounding techniques to reduce reactivity and improve sleep and focus.

She also draws on Motivational Interviewing when people are looking to make changes but feel stuck. This approach involves careful listening and questions that help clarify personal goals and build motivation in manageable steps. Together, these approaches aim to connect daily actions with longer-term goals in a collaborative way.

Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. The therapist will explore goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked before, then adjust techniques together with the client. That lets sessions stay focused and relevant to each person’s situation.

Confirm current session options before booking, as formats are not listed here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It can also let people use practices learned in session more quickly in their everyday life.
