About Lutfa
Lutfa Khanom offers calm, straightforward support for people facing stress, anxiety and major life changes. She welcomes conversations about relationship worries, family tensions, parenting strain, grief and the hollow feeling that sometimes follows loss. Her approach aims to help people feel heard and build small, practical steps forward.
She uses nine years of professional experience to guide gentle, goal-focused work. Sessions are intended to be non-judgemental and encouraging, so people can say what they really think and feel.
How Lutfa works
Lutfa concentrates on boosting motivation, self-esteem and confidence through steady, realistic tasks rather than one-off fixes. Her background includes work with grief and bereavement, hospice and end-of-life counselling, and people coping with illness such as cancer. She also supports those dealing with attachment and abandonment wounds, codependency, infidelity and the fallout from separation or divorce.
Practical relationship topics are a common focus, including communication problems, commitment and intimacy-related difficulties. Lutfa helps people who feel isolated or overwhelmed to find clearer priorities and kinder self-talk. Anger, guilt, shame and control issues are addressed with straightforward conversations and coping strategies.
Sessions balance compassionate listening with actionable plans. The aim is to build coping skills that fit daily life and to help people move forward at a manageable pace. Lutfa practises from the United Kingdom and conducts work in English.

Online support options
Practical therapeutic approaches for online support
Two evidence-based approaches commonly used in this work are problem-focused coping and grief-focused support. Problem-focused coping involves identifying specific stressors and practising small, repeatable actions to reduce their impact; it helps with anxiety, anger and day-to-day overwhelm. Grief-focused support offers space to name losses, process emotions and create rituals or routines that make living with loss more manageable, which is helpful for bereavement and living loss.Another useful approach is attachment-informed work that looks at past patterns in close relationships and how they affect current trust and intimacy. This helps people understand repeated difficulties with commitment, abandonment fears or codependent behaviours and supports new ways of relating. Choosing which approach to use is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most useful, and then adapt methods as progress is made.
Online therapy offers flexibility across formats. Video calls allow face-to-face discussion and visual cues, phone sessions suit people with lower bandwidth or who prefer not to be on camera, and live chat or text messaging can be used for shorter check-ins or when typing feels easier. These options make it simpler to fit sessions around work, family or health commitments and to continue therapy when travel or distance would otherwise be a barrier.
