About Fadumo
Fadumo Mohamed is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, trauma and abuse, grief and depression. She draws on a long career to offer calm, steady support and practical ways to cope. Sessions are offered in English, Arabic and Somali.
With 26 years of experience in the United Kingdom, she has worked with people who have lived through war, torture, sexual and physical abuse, natural disasters, and other traumatic events.
Background and approach
She also supports people dealing with adoption and foster care questions, immigration and multicultural concerns, and health-related challenges such as HIV and postpartum depression. Her approach starts from the view that clients are the experts in their own lives. She listens first, then helps people name what matters most to them.
From there she uses therapy methods that match the person’s needs and goals. Her practice draws on a mix of approaches including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, attachment-based work, emotionally-focused methods, EMDR, and mindfulness. These are used to help reduce upsetting symptoms, process difficult memories, and rebuild emotional connection in relationships.
Fadumo is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. She offers sessions by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging so people can choose what fits their life best.

Online support
Therapeutic approaches and online care
Fadumo commonly uses EMDR to help people process traumatic memories and reduce distress linked to those events. EMDR involves guided attention and structured steps to revisit difficult memories while building new, less upsetting associations.She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which focuses on clarifying values and taking small steps that fit those values, and on Emotionally-Focused Therapy, which helps people notice and shift emotional patterns that affect relationships. ACT can help with persistent worry or low mood by teaching flexible ways to respond, while EFT is useful when people want to repair or strengthen emotional bonds.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will discuss options together and choose methods that match the person’s goals, preferences and situation. Therapy is collaborative and adjusted as progress is made.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to give practical flexibility. Video suits in-depth sessions with visual contact. Phone calls work well when bandwidth is limited or for a shorter check-in. Live chat and text messaging let people write between sessions or use messaging for brief updates and reflection. These options help people fit therapy around work, family and travel.
