If you are feeling lost or overwhelmed by past, present, or future concerns, I can offer a warm, non-judgmental space to explore these experiences at your own pace. I have practiced therapeutically for over 7 years, and I am highly experienced in working across diverse socio-cultural backgrounds and settings- including the NHS and Third-sector organisations. I have a BSc & MSc in Psychology, and I am nearing completion of my Doctoral Training in Counselling Psychology & Psychotherapy. My clinical work is confidentially and robustly supported by a highly qualified and experienced Clinical Supervisior.
My approach is integrative and trauma-informed, drawing from Psychodynamic and Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT) models. I am deeply curious about the 'Whole' person, their unconscious mind, methods of coping, Values system, early experiences and later relationship patterns. I work collaboratively and consider the therapeutic relationship throughout.
If you are seeking lasting meaningful change, a deeper understanding of yourself, and insight into your relationships, we may be a great fit to work together. I offer a free, no-obligation, 15-minute consultation where we can discuss further if you would like. Take care & speak soon, Haleemah.

I work with clients' distress, holding awareness of their systemic and socio-cultural contexts, and how this may be impacting their experience. I believe meaningful change happens when clients feel genuinely heard, understood, and emotionally held within a safe and consistent therapeutic environment. The therapeutic relationship is central to my practice and may be reflected on in the session.

My emerging approach is integrative and trauma-informed, drawing from Psychodynamic, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) frameworks. This allows us to explore relational experiences and inner patterns, while also developing practical ways to increase emotional awareness, resilience, self-compassion, value-guided action and psychological flexibility.
