About Fadumo

Fadumo Mohamed is a counsellor with 26 years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, grief and relationship problems. She supports those affected by trauma, including sexual and physical abuse and hardships linked to war or natural disaster. She also works with concerns such as postpartum depression, issues around adoption and foster care, and the effects of prejudice and discrimination.

Fadumo describes people as the experts of their own stories.

Background and approach

She focuses on building on existing strengths and making small, practical changes that fit everyday life. Sessions are straightforward and grounded. The aim is to make space to feel, reflect and take steps that matter.

Her approach draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy, which looks at feelings and attachment needs in close relationships, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which helps people notice what matters and take values-based action. She also uses attachment-based ideas to understand long-standing patterns, and EMDR where trauma processing is helpful. Mindfulness practices are used to calm the body and steady attention.

Fadumo holds BACP registration, which is listed as her professional credential. She works with people across cultures and backgrounds and offers sessions in English, Arabic and Somali. She practises from the United Kingdom and accepts international clients.

Sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. The service uses a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, choose the Start Therapy button and complete a short matching questionnaire, then schedule a time that fits.

Online support

How Fadumo’s approaches work online

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) centres on noticing and naming emotions that shape relationship patterns and personal reactions. Online EFT sessions focus on feeling states and how they connect to needs, which can help with relationship stress, attachment worries and intense emotional responses.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take small actions that reflect those values. In online work this often includes practical exercises to build everyday habits, plus short mindfulness practices to reduce avoidance and rumination.

Attachment-based ideas are used to track long-standing patterns that repeat across relationships. Working online, a counsellor can help identify these patterns, try new ways of responding and rehearse different approaches between sessions.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options with each person, look at their goals and preferences, and agree a plan together. This collaborative process helps decide whether EFT, ACT, attachment-focused work or a blend will be most useful.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to fit different routines. Video calls let people read expressions and body language, phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited, chat can be a shorter check-in and messaging supports ongoing reflection between appointments. These options aim to make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into daily life.
