About Hania

Hania Masoud is a PACFA counsellor practising in Australia with eight years' experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and relationship concerns. Her profile highlights blended family issues among other family-related problems and parenting strain. Sessions are offered in English and Arabic.

Hania uses several evidence-informed methods. She often draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to help people notice unhelpful patterns and take practical steps. Attachment-based ideas are used to look at how early relationships shape current trust and closeness. Dialectical Behaviour Therapy skills are introduced when emotion regulation and distress tolerance are needed.

Her approach is conversational and goal-focused. Practical skills and small experiments are commonly used between sessions. People learn ways to manage overwhelming feelings, reduce anxiety, and communicate more clearly with others. For those in blended households she addresses issues like loyalty conflicts, boundary-setting, and merged routines without taking sides.

Hania also supports work around grief, intimacy-related concerns, anger, self-esteem and career stress. She can help people consider the origins of patterns such as abandonment or control issues and try different responses. She is a Circles of Security Parenting facilitator and uses that background when supporting parents who want more attuned caregiving.

To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. Costs vary with location and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time. International clients are not currently accepted.

Therapeutic approaches for online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose values-based actions. It is useful for stress, anxiety and making changes that matter. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and testing new behaviours to reduce symptoms like anxiety and low mood. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns of relating and trust, helping people understand how early relationships affect current intimacy and conflict.

Finding the best approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals and try methods that suit the person's needs and preferences. This is a collaborative process and adjustments are made as new information emerges.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm available online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when time is tight, and remove travel time. It also lets people try talking from a familiar place and continue consistent appointments despite life changes.
