You hold it all together for your husband, your children, your family. You socialise, smile in the photos, plan birthdays and juggle the chores. To the outside world, you’re dependable and strong. But inside? You’re tired. Lonely. Wondering when your needs stopped mattering. You stay quiet to avoid arguments but it still hurts. You carry guilt for wanting space and 'me-time'. You wonder if anyone notices the woman behind the roles; the one quietly fading. If this is your story, I see you. I work with women who feel invisible, unheard or feel stuck in a never ending cycle of expectations.
As a culturally sensitive counsellor, I offer women’s counselling in English, Urdu, Hindi, and Punjabi, understanding the demands of duty, dilemmas and family expectations. You don’t have to choose between your culture and your healing. No more distractions to numb the pain because that's only a short term relief. Together, we unpack and release your hurt.
We build boundaries to restore your emotional wellbeing, so you feel strong in your culture and strong in yourself. This is an inclusive space, but if you prefer faith-based counselling, we can explore Muslim counselling or Islamic marriage counselling available in-person or online counselling Australia wide. Everyone is welcome here. Reach out for a chat.

I work with women whose self-talk is 'if I speak up, I'll upset someone' and as a result they say yes to keep everyone happy. In our sessions, we explore unhelpful beliefs and patterns. During therapy women discover their unique strengths, learn to find their voice and take care of their wellbeing without feeling guilty. Most women notice positive changes in themselves after a few sessions.

I use a variety of approaches to suit the individual and their circumstances. Whilst I draw heavily on Acceptance Commitment Therapy and Solutions Focused approaches, I adopt other approaches based on individual need. Women implement strategies and then we debrief on aspects that worked for them and those that need to be modified for best results. It is a truly collaborative therapeutic experience
