About Hania

Hania Masoud is a PACFA counsellor practising in Australia with eight years of clinical experience. She works with adults who want to manage stress, anxiety, anger and relationship strain. Sessions are offered in English and Arabic and are aimed at people who want more steady, practical ways to handle strong emotions and difficult interactions.

Hania draws on a blend of approaches to suit what a person needs in the moment. She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Attachment-Based Therapy to help people notice unhelpful patterns and try different responses. She also uses Dialectical Behaviour Therapy skills where emotional regulation and distress tolerance need practice.

In sessions she focuses on clear, doable strategies. That can mean learning skills to reduce reactivity, noticing how past relationships influence present behaviour, or testing new ways to communicate. She also helps with grief, parenting concerns and pressures at work that feed into frustration and anger.

Her background includes work with trauma, bereavement and relationship difficulties. Hania is a Circles of Security Parenting facilitator and describes helping people look at root causes rather than quick fixes. She works with people on separation, attachment wounds and family of origin issues that affect how they relate now.

People can expect a direct, practical style that balances skills practice and reflection. To begin, a short matching questionnaire is completed and a first session scheduled to agree goals and next steps.

How sessions work

How her therapeutic approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting pushed around by them, and then choose actions that match their values. It can help with anger that keeps pulling someone into the same reactive patterns. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at early relationship patterns and how they shape current responses; it helps when anger links to fear of abandonment or mistrust in close relationships.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to assess goals, try a few methods, and adjust based on what actually helps. That means checking in about what skills work, how conversations land, and whether a focus on behaviour change or on relationship patterns is more useful at a given time.

The original biography does not list specific online formats, so confirm the available session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around work, reduce travel time, or allow shorter check-ins when people need brief support between appointments. The therapist will discuss practical arrangements and session rhythm during the first meeting so plans fit everyday life.
