I have a special interest of helping adults who have unhelpful coping strategies that keep them stuck, such as eating too much or too little; drinking too much; withdrawing into themselves; &/or working harder to activate perfectionist & self-destructive behaviours.

I am successful in meeting my clients’ many needs through genuine and non-judgemental relating. I have learnt that it is central to be able to gain a clear sense of how people see their world.

Are you in your 30s, quietly panicking that you’re running out of time to figure your life out? Everyone else seems to be moving forward — relationships, careers, families — while you’re overthinking every decision and wondering where you went wrong.
Life looks “fine” on the outside but, inside you're exhausted by constant self-doubt, stuck in spirals of overthinking and scared of making the wrong move, so you stay frozen under the pressure to get it right before it’s “too late.”

Hello and Welcome, Life can indeed be difficult at times. Many are struggling with mental health in ways that are no longer manageable.

Hi, my name is Sultana Begum. I am of Bengali origin. Having been raised and lived for over forty years in London, I am a Londoner. I am also British, Asian, a European Muslim, a female, a wife, a daughter, a mother, a sister, an aunt, a friend, a colleague, a neighbour and as well as a counsellor, therapist and many more.... I believe who we are and who we think or believe we should be are not one and the same. I believe in today’s complex world of information overload, we can have many identities and that's okay. However, this can sometimes be overwhelming or confusing, leading to frustration and difficulties in living life full

You may be considering counselling or therapy for one or a number or reasons. At any time in our life we can be required to face unwanted challenges as life's inevitable ups and downs get the better of us. This can be due to an unexpected change in circumstances or it may be that life itself is demanding too much right now and you are struggling to cope. It may be that everything in your life is going according to plan and yet, still, there is a deeper sense that something is missing. Talking to friends and relatives provides only temporary relief and you are wondering if speaking to a therapist might be helpful.

Hello, I am Charlotte and I'm a counsellor and psychotherapist. I am also a trauma and complex trauma professional.
Clients of mine often say they 'feel different, feel they don't fit in' or have a sense that 'they are not able to function like "normal" people'. They find daily life hard, triggering and often overwhelming.

We also reflect on your support system and things which bring you joy. Then, we would talk about how life was like for you as a child, and how
