I’m a Chartered Counselling Psychologist with over ten years’ experience working across children’s and adult mental health services.
In my work, I support adults, children, and families to understand patterns in their thoughts, emotions, and relationships - particularly those shaped by early life experiences. I have a special interest in schema-informed therapy, helping clients make sense of long-standing patterns that may be impacting their wellbeing, relationships, or sense of self.

I can work with adults, young people, and children.
Sometimes we experience changes or traumas that leave us struggling with the pressures of life, relationships, work, or studies. This can affect our self-esteem, our sense of identity, and our ability to cope. This can become overwhelming and may lead us to unhelpful or harmful thoughts and behaviours. With help, we can overcome our difficulties and learn to manage our emotions more effectively. With compassion, empathy, respect, and a safe space, we feel heard, considered, and valued. By understanding our thoughts and behaviours we can feel empowered to make positive changes that can lead us to fuller and more enjoyable lives.

I am Shaheen, a qualified and experienced therapist working with couples, families and individuals, who would like to deal with life or relationship challenges differently. My approach is systemic, which means looking at issues in the context of relationships, experiences, cultures and situations. For couples or families it's useful for recognising unhelpful patterns and enabling you - between you - to find new ways of managing that fit better with how you would like to be. Whatever challenges you are facing, we can explore what the multiple factors are, that may have contributed, and open up space for new ideas.

I am a Person-Centred counsellor that has many years experience with both Children and Adults.
I feel I can offer a safe non judgement space to explore issues that may be arising in your life. Using a Person-Centred approach allows you to go at your own speed and more space to reflect what may be happening. Also offering support to children from 4+ using play therapy allows children to express and explore feelings through play rather than words.

Our journey through life can be rough at times, and when that happens it’s healthy to get a little support. It can be overwhelming to do everything alone, so taking a moment to express ourselves to a professional and empathetic CBT therapist can make a great difference in our lives. My effectiveness as a therapist stems from empathetic listening, genuine compassion, and a non-judgemental attitude. The ability to establish a trusting therapeutic alliance creates a safe space for clients to explore their thoughts and emotions.

I work with children, young people, and adults, creating a warm, supportive space where you can explore your experiences at your own pace.
My work combines conversation and creativity, drawing on storytelling, role play, images, objects, and art-making. As a Dramatherapist, I know that words don't always come easily. Using metaphor and imagination, we can explore feelings, make sense of experiences, and discover new perspectives in a way that feels safe, supportive, and led by you.

When does a child need to see a therapist?
Children naturally experience emotional ups and downs. Sometimes, though, they need support from a professional. A child may benefit from therapy if their emotions or behaviours change significantly within a short period of time. For example, if a child usually spends time with friends after school but begins isolating in their room, further inquiry is warranted. Other areas for concern include altered sleep patterns, lack of appetite, intense anger, irritability, or hopelessness, or developmental regression in young children (bedwetting, thumb-sucking).
What can a child therapist help with?
A therapist can help with any difficult experience a child may encounter growing up, including learning problems or anxiety related to school, relationship challenges with friends or parents, bullying, intense emotions or phobias, divorce and family dynamics, or the death of a pet or loved one. A therapist can help children process their experience and develop coping skills in an age-appropriate way
What therapy types are most suitable for children?
Children can benefit from different forms of therapy, including family therapy, parent-child interaction therapy, play therapy, cognitive behavioural therapy, and exposure therapy, depending on their condition. Play therapy is a great option for younger children who may not be able to fully articulate their feelings. In this approach, kids play with toys and games while a therapist observes and helps the child express their emotions and develop coping skills.
Do I need to attend therapy with my child?
Parents are an integral part of a child’s therapy, but the specifics of their involvement vary. If your child is young, you may attend most or all sessions; if your child is older, you may attend a few sessions or none; sometimes a therapist may ask you to have a session on your own. Whatever the arrangement, you should expect to work collaboratively with the therapist, your child, and your family members to take steps to help support your child.
How can I tell if a therapist is a good fit for my child?
A child needs to feel comfortable opening up about their thoughts and feelings, so if your child feels a sense of comfort, ease, and trust with their therapist, that’s a great sign. In addition, a therapist is a good fit for your child if the two can communicate well together; a clinician should be able to communicate clearly, effectively, and in an age-appropriate manner.
