About Hania

Hania Masoud supports people who are seeking safety, healing and deeper connection in their lives. She focuses on helping clients rebuild trust in themselves, feel seen and heard without judgement, and develop healthier relationships with partners, children and with themselves.

Her practice emphasises lasting change rather than quick fixes, working to uncover and address root causes so clients can move beyond the past and create a different future. She offers guidance for parenting that aims to feel nurturing, secure and empowering, and for individuals who want to move from surviving to thriving.

She also provides support for anxiety, depression, bereavement, family difficulties, grief, intimacy-related concerns, anger and self-esteem challenges. As a Circles of Security Parenting (COSP) facilitator she works with caregivers to strengthen attachment and parenting confidence, and she can assist with issues related to domestic violence and family of origin problems.

Hania brings eight years of clinical experience and has guided hundreds of individuals, couples and families through their journeys of recovery and growth. She works in Australia and offers therapy in English and Arabic. She is listed with PACFA (Psychotherapy and Counselling Federation of Australia), indicating her connection with a national professional body.

Approaches that translate well to online therapy

Hania Masoud commonly draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Attachment-Based Therapy, and she also works from a client-centred perspective. ACT helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without being driven by them, and supports living in line with personal values - it is often useful for anxiety, stress and motivation concerns. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on patterns of relating that developed in early relationships and helps repair and strengthen connection in adult relationships and parenting. Client-centred therapy emphasises empathy, acceptance and collaboration, giving clients space to lead sessions while the therapist supports growth and self-understanding.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Hania will work collaboratively with each person to identify which methods best match their needs, goals and preferences, and may blend approaches as therapy evolves.

Online therapy with Hania is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging to provide flexibility and accessibility. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and other commitments, and enable ongoing support for people who live regionally or who prefer remote sessions. Appropriately qualified or registered professionals can adapt these methods to create meaningful and effective therapeutic work over distance.
