I know how daunting this first step can be. Reaching out for help from a stranger can be very nerve-wracking. However, during our time together we will build a trusting and supportive relationship, one that you may find solace in. I work with clients from all backgrounds and I offer support for adults and young people aged 11+. I support clients with a wide range of issues such as anxiety, trauma, relationship breakdowns, bereavement, self-harm, family conflict, women’s cultural issues, eating disorders and anger management. In particular, I am highly experienced in working within the south asian community.

Sometimes the ways we’ve always handled things just aren't enough. You may be feeling stuck, overwhelmed anxious, depressed, stressed, or are simply disconnected from the person you want to be – but you don’t have to navigate those feelings alone. My approach is rooted in the confidence that you have what it takes to adapt and overcome the challenges facing you. I won’t offer "quick fixes" or give you a label; instead, I offer a non-judgmental space in which you can examine your experiences openly and productively.

Many of my clients are thoughtful, self-aware people who understand where their difficulties come from, yet still feel stuck. You might know you are good enough, yet not feel it. You may struggle with low mood, anxiety, low self-esteem or a harsh inner critic that affects relationships, work and daily life. I have a special interest in maternal mental health, supporting women with postpartum anxiety, birth trauma, mum guilt, overwhelm or feeling lost in motherhood, as well as difficulties that continue beyond this stage. Whether you are a mum or not, if you feel exhausted, stuck or disconnected from yourself, you are not alone.

You might look like you’re coping on the outside—but inside, something doesn’t feel right.
Perhaps you feel overwhelmed by your emotions, stuck in patterns in relationships, or disconnected from yourself. You may have been through experiences that still linger—showing up as anxiety, numbness, self-doubt, or a constant sense of being “on edge.” Even if things seem fine on the surface, something deeper isn’t settling.
If that resonates, therapy can offer a space to begin understanding why things feel this way—and what can start to shift.

You may appear to be functioning well on the outside, work, responsibilities, relationships, yet feel increasingly anxious, overwhelmed or disconnected inside. Perhaps alcohol or other coping habits are starting to take more space than you would like. You may be expat or navigating a major life transition and looking for a confidential space to talk openly.
Together we can explore what is happening beneath the surface, develop healthier ways to cope and help you regain clarity, balance and a stronger sense of direction.
Sessions are available in English or French.

I am experienced in working with a broad range of psychological issues and I specialise in anger, depression, anxiety, trauma and many other mental health issues. As people we learn through the experiences we have in the world. Our perceptions of ourselves then shape our relationships with other people, the world, but most importantly, how we think and feel about ourselves. We can develop defences and avoidant behaviours due to these experiences and our perceptions. Sometimes we may avoid our emotions as they seem too difficult, or overwhelming, or we feel out of control. Therapy is where these themes and emotions are explored.

I offer a professional and confidential counselling service both in person in Central Glasgow and in Irvine, Ayrshire, and online over Zoom.

I’m a qualified CBT therapist based in the west end of Glasgow with experience in NHS and education. This background has given me a strong understanding of the complex pressures faced by adults and young people during times of stress, change, or uncertainty.

We all encounter times in our lives where we may feel anxious, sad, angry, or stuck in a pattern of unhelpful behaviour. This can impact our day to day lives, our relationship with ourselves and our relationship with others.
We know that something must change but might not be entirely sure how to move forward.
By offering a warm, safe and supportive space I can help you. I use a blend of psychodynamic and trauma-informed therapy to support people in understanding themselves more deeply and feeling more grounded and present in everyday life.

As a Professional Hypnotherapist, Life Coach, Mindfulness & Breathing Coach, NLP Practitioner and Personal Trainer I very much believe in a holistic approach - supporting clients to improve their overall mental, physical and cognitive wellbeing. In my work as a coach and therapist, I support clients who have been struggling with their physical and mental health - tapping into their subconscious mind to help them overcome the fears, habits, addictions or patterns of behaviour that have been holding them back, enabling them to become the best version of themselves. Within this process, hypnotherapy is a central transformative tool.
