I work with adults both one to one and in group therapy that present with a range of difficulties which include Addiction, Mental Health, Eating Disorders, Self Harm, Bereavement, Anxiety, Depression, Domestic and Sexual Abuse , Trauma, Personality Disorders and many other challenges that individuals come to therapy for.
I am a highly qualified and experienced therapist working in Nottingham with clients seeking support when they are struggling with emotional or mental health challenges. Many people seek therapy when they are feeling vulnerable and experiencing a challenging time in their lives, due to past experiences or events that are happening in the present day. I understand how big this first step is. My role as a therapist is to provide you with a safe and confidential space to talk and help you explore the challenges you are currently facing and help you heal and find solutions. I have worked for the Priory Clinic, Steps Together Rehab.

Hello, I'm Zareeda and I work with people on issues ranging from rape and sexual abuse to stress, bereavement, anxiety and depression. If you are struggling to find meaning in life you may be feeling disconnected from yourself and/or those around you. This loss of contact with yourself, your needs, values and beliefs may decrease your trust in your ability to form and build meaningful relationships and achieve personal goals.

I have worked as a counsellor in a variety of organisations including those focused on working with trauma and abuse and those which focus on young people between 6 and 25.
I am based in Beeston, Nottingham. It easily accessible by car, bus and tram. Things can throw us off course and we can lose ourselves and need support through difficult times. It may just be that you need someone to talk to about what’s going on for you. I can help you by offering a warm and safe space where you will be fully listened to and can explore your emotional difficulties without judgement and at a pace that suits you.

I have supported women who have experienced domestic abuse and supported them in their journey.
Sometimes life can be tough and talking about the challenges and struggles we go through with our loved ones can be even more difficult and it can leave us feeling isolated and lonely. Asking for help is not easy and if you have not experienced counselling before you may find your self asking the question, do i need counselling? If you feel the need to gain insight and self awareness than counselling is a safe place for you to start your journey of self healing. We are living in the time of uncertainty and many of us are feeling stressed and anxious.It can be helpful to talk to a professional who can provide an outside perspective.

Outside of my private work I manage a trans inclusive women's counselling service and volunteer some time working with survivors of domestic abuse .
Psychotherapy with me is based on having a safe, friendly space to explore all parts of you that are having difficulty in life. I have worked extensively with people who have suffered complex trauma. I work with associated issues such as depression, anxiety, self esteem, trust issues and trauma symptoms. I also work with a lot of issues around modern day living, the environment and systems we navigate and the difficulties we face as a result, including difficulties related to neurodiversity. I work at your pace, taking a collaborative approach to achieving your goals.

If you are looking for a safe, confidential and non-judgmental space to talk about and work through the issues you are experiencing, then I may be able to help. You are not alone, we all experience distressing events and difficult feelings at some point in our lives, it’s just part of being human. Many people suffer with depression, anxiety, panic attacks, difficult relationships, bereavement or have unresolved baggage from the past, including trauma or abuse , that severely impacts their wellbeing. I know it can feel hard to reach out, but a little support can go a long way - you don't have to cope with it on your own.

Specialising in trauma - using EMDR, loss, stress, anxiety, low self - esteem, abuse , addiction, self harm and issues within relationships.
Are you feeling lost or out of sorts? Life can be hard and this is where counselling can play a pivotal role in turning your life around. No one should be dealing with issues alone. Standing beside you, developing a trusting relationship where you feel at ease and able to share in a place of safety without judgements or demands is an important starting point. People don’t need to be in crisis or at breaking point to have therapy. It is about empowerment for you to lead the life you want. The outcome being that you have a strong mental platform and resources to facilitate growth.

My background is in supporting survivors of sexual violence .
Therapy can be a tough enough undertaking without sitting across from somebody furiously scribbling in a notebook, poker faced whilst you try your best to open up. So, I run my practice with a few core values: acceptance, kindness, empathy, compassion and a touch of humour and humanity to lighten the load a bit. No chaise longue necessary. The type of therapy I do is called integrative psychotherapy. It means I incorporate a few different types of therapy (person centred, attachment theory and cut) to create a style tailored specifically to you and your needs.

Domestic Abuse Counsellors

What are the most effective ways to recover from domestic abuse?

Leaving an abusive relationship requires tremendous courage, so survivors in treatment should recognise that they have already completed the most important step. Still, the trauma of physical or emotional abuse can be difficult to process and overcome. Therapy can help survivors process trauma, grief, and difficult emotions, treat relevant mental health symptoms, and create a new framework for boundaries and relationships in the future. For some, support groups can also be an invaluable outlet for healing.

When should an individual seek help for domestic abuse?

Victims of intimate partner violence should seek help immediately. It can take substantial time, planning, energy, and courage to leave an abusive relationship, but starting the process—by seeking therapy, calling the domestic violence hotline, or simply confiding in a loved one—will help them get there. Those who have left abusive relationships but haven’t sought treatment can also greatly benefit from therapy to process and heal from the experience.

What are the consequences of staying in an abusive relationship?

Remaining in an abusive relationship has serious repercussions. In addition to the ongoing threat of physical danger and emotional abuse, research shows that intimate partner violence is associated with a range of mental health disorders including depression, post-traumatic stress disorder, anxiety, and substance abuse. Therefore it’s important for individuals in an abusive relationship to seek help as soon as possible.

How can you get domestic abuse treatment for someone else?

It can be very complicated to identify and leave an abusive relationship; barriers include the threat of violence, financial instability, and family pressures. Those concerned about a loved one in an abusive relationship should talk to them about the situation, provide them with resources such as the domestic violence hotline, and introduce the idea of seeing a therapist due to their concern for the person’s safety and well-being.
