Counselling in Rouse Hill, NSW

Irum has worked with a wide range of clients and issues. She is also bilingual (English and Urdu).

Taking the first step towards seeking help can often feel daunting, like stepping into uncharted territory. In a society that places emphasis on self-reliance, it's important to acknowledge that everyone, even the strongest individuals, can benefit from support along life's journey. Embarking on this journey holds great promise. Through therapy, you can discover new strengths, heal emotional wounds, and embrace a more fulfilling and empowered life. Together, we will navigate life's challenges, helping you develop resilience and confidence along the way.

The ideal counseling client is someone who is willing to actively participate in the therapeutic process and is willing to become self-aware and curious. They want to find safety and develop a deeper sense of compassion and acceptance towards themselves.

As someone who has personally navigated the complexities of relationships, I understand how tough they can be. I've battled with insecurities, wrestled with anxiety, struggled to communicate my needs, and navigated through the complex world of family life. But through it all, I've grown.

This is the same gift I'd like to offer my clients through my professional service and I can't wait to walk with you on your journey!

Working with you on an individualised basis freedom from those intruding negative thoughts and feelings is not only possible it can be a reality.

I have years of experience of Domestic violence, separation, divorce and parenting after separation. In many cultures often the abuser believes that they are entitled to it and they do not recognize themselves as abusers or victims, because they may consider their experiences as family conflicts that had gotten out of control. Learning to recognize the signs of domestic violence represents the first step toward getting help. I help women and their families who are suffering from domestic and family violence recognise the signs of domestic violence and help them to be strong and support them make their own choices.
