About Durdana
Durdana Soomro is a counsellor who brings nine years of experience working with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship and intimacy concerns. She holds BACP registration, and she focuses on helping clients build confidence, cope with grief, and manage low mood. Durdana aims to offer a calm, respectful space for people to talk through what matters most to them.
Her sessions are shaped around each person’s needs rather than a one-size-fits-all plan.
Background and approach
She uses approaches such as existential thinking to help people find meaning, and practical strategies from cognitive behavioural therapy when unhelpful thoughts or habits are getting in the way. Attachment-based ideas and client-centred listening also inform how she works. People can expect straightforward conversations and a pace that suits them.
Durdana pays attention to culture and background and brings that into discussions about relationships and trust. She also addresses issues such as infidelity with sensitivity and a focus on next steps. Sessions can include short-term practical work or longer conversations about underlying patterns.
The therapist will discuss goals and review progress with the person at regular points. This helps keep therapy focused on what each person wants to change. Durdana offers a compassionate, down-to-earth approach.
She supports people who want clearer boundaries, improved self-esteem, or help coping after loss. The aim is to leave clients with more clarity and usable ways to manage everyday challenges.

Online support
How different approaches shape online therapy
Existential therapy invites people to talk about meaning, responsibility and the choices that feel important to them. It can help when someone feels stuck, disconnected, or unsure what matters next.Attachment-based therapy looks at how early and current relationship patterns affect trust and closeness. This approach is useful for relationship or intimacy concerns where patterns of relating repeat themselves.
Finding the right approach is something to do together. The therapist will listen to your goals, try different ways of working, and agree what feels most helpful. This collaborative process means methods are adjusted as understanding and needs evolve.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when that matters. Phone sessions are a good option when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text can suit people who prefer to write, need flexible timing, or want brief check-ins between longer sessions.
These formats make it easier to fit therapy around work, family life and travel. They can also let a person try different styles of contact to see what supports their progress best.
