Counselling in WA14

Welcome! I hope that my words here help you to feel seen and leave you feeling hopeful of a better tomorrow.​ I am passionate about normalising seeking support when we need to. It is a gift to yourself and your future generations. It's important to know that we all experience times in our life that are overwhelming, challenging and sometimes paralysing. I firmly believe that you do not need to have experienced something catastrophic to justify why you might be finding things difficult. I will help you to discover a new way of moving forward which feels positive, and is aligned with who you are and what you want for your life.​

Sometimes we all need someone to talk to, life can become overwhelming, confusing, or distressing for many different people, for many different reasons. Maybe you've had a change in circumstances, or maybe you're not sure what has changed but you know that you feel different. Sometimes coming to counselling can be just the place to untangle your thoughts and make sense of what is going on for you, and how you might like it to change. Counselling can provide a space where you can truly be heard, this in itself can be really powerful factor for change. 'People start to heal the moment they feel listened to' - Cheryl Richardson

If you have been struggling with anxiety, self-criticism, shame, low mood, difficult emotions & relationships, it may be the right time to find a trusted therapist; someone to help you understand & grow from the effects of adversity, stress & trauma. Our wellbeing can be affected by many things - work stress, early adversity, significant trauma or relationships, and we do our best to find helpful coping strategies. When our ways of coping don't work so well, we can feel stuck and isolated - psychological therapy can help us move beyond those barriers. I focus on you as an individual, without using labels or diagnoses.

Are you struggling with low mood and anxiety? Do you have difficulties with your self-esteem, body image your relationship with food? Have you experienced a traumatic life event? Struggling in your relationships at home and at work? Or are you experiencing an overall lack of happiness and fulfilment in your life which makes you less hopeful for the future? Then you are not alone. Many of us experience these difficulties, at various points in our lives. The good thing is, you are here now, wanting to seek help. To get started, you can request an initial appointment with Dr Ishba Rehman (free of cost) to discuss your needs and goals.

An hour a week just for you. The time to build your version 2.0. An individualised, confidential, professional collaboration to work out why you do what you do, and how to change it.

Hi and thank you for visiting my profile. Opening up can be hard, I feel it is better to share a problem than to deal with it yourself. I enjoy helping people make sense of their experiences and finding different ways of living. I value hearing each person's story and helping you to find inner calm, clarity and understanding.

Hello, you may be finding it difficult to cope at the moment and feeling overwhelmed and swamped with life's pressures. Perhaps you have suffered a loss, a trauma or are struggling to make sense of your present or past experiences. Does it feel like you have too many anxious thoughts on your mind and are finding it hard to prioritise or want to escape?

Hi, I am a qualified psychotherapistI working within an integrative framework. meaning I use different therapy approaches which are client led in a confidential, non-judgmental and safe environment. When we are faced with challenges in our life the opportunity to discuss this with someone impartial who will not judge you, can be a positive choice. My experience enables me to support you to make sense of your thoughts, feelings and behaviours. Together we can identify what might be stopping you from reaching your full potential.

It isn't often, in our everyday lives, that we feel truly heard, understood and accepted without sensing judgement or criticism from others. I deeply acknowledge and understand the loneliness that comes from struggling in silence with life's difficulties. Therapy offers you a calm space to begin to tell your story; permission to pause and reflect on what you have been through, validate your response to trauma and loss and gently navigate the path forward. I will support you on your therapeutic journey, gently empowering you to realise your inner resources and ways of coping and navigating your world so that you feel more in control.
