In a challenging and fast pace world we all need our optimum Self to deal with the demands of life; maintaining and keeping relationships, keeping up the functional aspects of our lives, pursuing dreams and interests, pleasure activities, being at ease when alone, and being comfortable in social settings - friends, events, education and work. Meeting the extra demands that life often presents - relationship breakups, divorce, loss of work, bereavement, mental health issues, loss of home and financial collapse, family turmoil or dysfunctionality, traumatic events, loss of health - requires a robust sense of Self, enabling change.

Our consciousness is like a small candle in vast darkness; we must not let it go out. Sometimes when we are faced with life challenges, our mind falters like a candle in the wind; we are confused, sad, angry, or agitated, and at times like this we need listening ears to listen to us and help us decipher our experiences to make sense of what is causing these emotional reactions and pain. Sometimes, confusion and contamination of our minds can be brought about by broken relationships, job loss, bereavement, mental illness, toxic relations, racism, oppression, wrong religious beliefs, divorce and cultural influences to mention a few.

I have come to counselling and psychotherapy as my second career after spending over 25 years in the corporate sector as part of the human resources function for global technology companies.

There are many reasons for seeking support, whether you are experiencing anxiety, depression, grief, loss, low self-esteem, fears, feeling overwhelmed or questioning the direction of your life – therapy offers a non-judgemental, safe space to work through the challenges of life. Therapy is not about advice or assumptions. It is about having a confidential space to explore why your life feels like it does and offers hope for change.

I am here to help you to empower yourself, to make the right choices and decisions but ultimately you are in the driving seat to make whatever changes to help you overcome your distress and cope positively.

I wonder if you have been feeling sad, stressed or anxious? Have these feelings been with you for a long time? Are you wondering when they will reappear? It’s like dreading what is around the corner and finding it hard to enjoy or feel good in the present. Other people look like they’re having fun but your world is a shade of grey. Things that you loved doing no longer give you happiness and it's hard to concentrate. At times it takes lots of energy to go out or spend time with people who care about you. Your confidence and ability to cope disappear as you become stuck and the people around you become as worn down as you feel.

It takes courage to admit that you need help with a personal problem. You may be consumed with thoughts that paralyse your ability to engage in everyday life. You may awake every morning with feelings of anxiety, fear, shame, or guilt, or even frustration with being unable to change the cycle of overthinking. Perhaps you have retreated, feel isolated or stuck because you are unable to share your problems with others, nor the energy to prioritise quiet time for self-reflection. I am here to offer you a safe, confidential, and non-judgmental space to explore your needs.

Hi, my name is Mina. I am an integrative counsellor and psychotherapist. If you’re wondering what integrative therapy is, it’s a combined approach to psychotherapy that brings together different elements of specific theories and therapies. My primary approach stems from the humanistic model of counselling which puts greater emphasis on the client/therapist relationship - something I hope we might have just begun with this very profile.
