It's Your Turn! Every day you get up and put on a brave face. You go through your day caring for others but without anyone seeing how you really feel. From the outside, your life looks pretty good. Sure you've got some challenges and you think you should be happy...but you're not. Something is missing. Something needs to change. You're tired, overwhelmed, and anxious most of the time. You feel like you're failing, that you're not good enough. You want to feel happier and in control of your life. You want to be the person you've kept under wraps for so long. But you don't know where to start. That's where I come in.

As a psychologist, I work with change. Change may involve shifts in awareness, attitude, behaviour, goals, acceptance, or coping strategies that will enhance your quality of life and well-being. Many obstacles can prevent us from living a satisfying life. These could be a history of trauma, invalidating relationships, habits that no longer serve us, or environments that may hinder our psychological growth. I can help you identify obstacles to your quality of life, develop strategies to tackle them, and set goals to increase and maintain your well-being.

My name is Amna and I am a psychotherapist (Qualifying). I aim to learn and gain experience in providing spiritually integrated therapy to clients and provide a safe and accepting environment. Many years of learning in Mental Health have taught me that some struggles are explicit while some are implicit. Therefore, judging the person overtly does not tell the entire story. Hence, accept people for who there are. Self-acceptance, self-compassion, and self-care are essential for personal growth.

Everyone deserves support and encouragement to realize their strengths and work towards a meaningful life. Life gets overwhelming, and when you're feeling down, exhausted, and stressed out, you may feel less motivated to do the things you enjoy. You may also feel disconnected, both from yourself, and others in your life. If you're feeling this way, it probably brought you here. I know how difficult it is to reach out for support, so I hope you can take a moment (and maybe some deep breaths), and then contact me to see how we can work together. I offer free consultations to first see if we're a good fit!

Therapy is, for many of us, one of the only spaces where we can safely allow ourselves to be seen. Having moved through life with my own experiences of trauma and a sense of otherness from being neurodivergent, I’m particularly attuned to people’s feelings of having to hide or reject parts of the self in an effort to find belonging. I am often described as warm, curious, and observant, and I have a knack for seeing the things that are going on under the surface. My work with clients tends to be deep, thought-provoking, and emotional, and we work together to process underlying patterns and feelings.
