Feeling lost, stuck, challenged or unknowing with where you are right now? Feel overwhelmed? Anxious? My clients say therapy has given them "...a chance to breathe".

Finding the right therapist for you is as much about their style and personality as their qualifications. I value warmth, collaboration, and humour when appropriate and I endeavour to bring these qualities to my practice. My work is integrative which means I can use different theories to suit each individual client's needs. I draw on relational psychoanalysis, attachment theory, Internal Family systems, ACT and humanistic approaches. I am also influenced by my interest in film and literature. I am an accredited member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy.

It’s tough when relationships feel stuck in the same patterns or when emotions become too overwhelming. You might feel disconnected from yourself, unsure where you belong, or struggling to express who you are. Maybe the spaces around you don’t always make room for difference, leaving you feeling unseen. I offer a space where you can share your story, make sense of your experiences, and reconnect with who you are beneath the layers of inhibitions, impositions and expectations that may have accumulated over time.

You might be feeling stuck or wondering whether you've made the right decision. You might not even know what the right decision is. You might even want to explore who it is that you are, why you do the things that you do, or why you're in the situation that you're in. If that is you, then consider what it is that counselling and psychotherapy might be able to do in helping you to consider all these questions that you might have about yourself and your situation.

Are you finding it difficult to cope? Perhaps life's pressures have left you feeling depressed or feeling increasingly stressed and anxious? All too often modern living can leave us with very little space to reflect about our own needs. Our relationships and health can suffer as a result. Psychotherapy can be helpful when emotional suffering becomes too much and at times of crisis when life can feel difficult or unmanageable. I am a qualified and experienced psychodynamic psychotherapist, particularly skilled in working with depression, anxiety and difficulties in couple relationships.

I was born and raised in multicultural societies all my life. Living in several different countries on 3 different continents (United Arab Emirates, Canada, Pakistan, Wales and England) has given me unique knowledge about culturally adapting therapy. It has also taught me to understand and work with many different kinds of people. I believe in building a strong therapeutic relationship with the client to create a safe and comfortable space to address and potentially alleviate psychological trauma. I have extensive experience adapting contemporary therapy and counselling and tailoring it to unique cultural nuances.

I work from a place of trying to support people in becoming unstuck and starting to move forward. Everybody comes to therapy with their own unique reasons. This can be due to specific psychological difficulties, such as depression or anxiety, feeling sad, difficult early life experiences, traumatic events, high-stress levels, or a general sense of feeling unfulfilled. I believe every person has a unique story, and psychological therapy should be adjusted appropriately as there is no “one-size-fits-all” in understanding our mental world.

Have you ever considered what possibilities could unfold if you gave yourself permission to heal and grow? What it would feel like to give yourself the care and attention you so often give to others. Our early experiences often shape the way we see ourselves, others, and the world. At your own pace, we’ll gently explore how those experiences may still be influencing your life today. Therapy isn’t about “fixing” you because you aren’t broken. Instead, it’s about creating a space where you feel safe, understood, and supported—so you can start untangling the things holding you back and reconnect with a new version of yourself.
