About Muna
Muna Salaad is a counsellor with six years of experience who offers a calm, non-judgemental space for people to talk through difficult feelings. She holds BACP registration, which is the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, and uses that framework in her work. Muna focuses on building a trusting relationship where clients can feel heard and understood.
She helps people dealing with depression, anxiety, trauma and abuse. She also supports those facing addictions, grief and major life changes such as divorce or workplace problems.
How Muna works
Parenting stresses, anger and low self-esteem are common topics she addresses in sessions. Muna draws on a mix of approaches to fit each person’s needs. She uses attachment-based ideas to look at relationship patterns, client-centred listening to follow what matters to the person, and cognitive behavioural techniques to tackle unhelpful thoughts and behaviours.
Mindfulness and psychodynamic ideas are also available when they suit the work. People can work with her for a short period or over a longer term depending on goals. Sessions are offered online by video, phone, live chat or text messaging which can suit different schedules and preferences.
She accepts clients based in the United Kingdom and internationally, and works in English. Muna aims to make the first steps simple. She encourages an honest conversation about what the person wants to change and what feels manageable.
From there she and the client agree on practical steps to try between sessions.

How her approaches work online
Muna often uses attachment-based ideas to look at how past relationships shape current patterns. This can help when people feel stuck in repeating cycles with partners or family. She also uses client-centred counselling which focuses on listening and following what matters most to the person in the room. That approach can help people feel understood and more able to make changes.She also draws on cognitive behavioural techniques to identify unhelpful thoughts and test out alternative ways of thinking and behaving. CBT is useful for anxiety, low mood and practical problem solving. Together she and the client decide which approaches to try, and the plan can change as the work progresses. Finding the right approach is a collaborative process and she checks in regularly about what is helping and what needs adjusting.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation without travel, phone sessions work well when internet bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text messaging suit quick check-ins or days when writing feels easier. These options make it simpler to fit sessions around work, family or health commitments and to continue therapy while travelling or living abroad.
