About me
Discover a Path Towards Emotional Wellbeing
If you’re struggling with anxiety, depression, ADHD, low self-esteem, or relationship difficulties, you don’t have to face it alone. I offer a safe, supportive, and non-judgemental space where you can explore your emotions and concerns at your own pace.
As a psychotherapeutic counsellor, I help you gain deeper insight into yourself by exploring unconscious processes, internal conflicts, defences, and emotional patterns that may be influencing how you feel and interact with the world. Together, we can work toward setting meaningful goals, building self-awareness, and addressing hidden patterns that may be contributing to feelings of unhappiness or distress.
My approach respects and honours the uniqueness of every individual. We are all born as our authentic selves, yet the expectations of primary care givers and early life experiences can shape how we believe we must behave in order to receive love, acceptance, and validation. Over time, this can lead to living in ways that feel disconnected from your true identity.
In our work together, I offer you the space and support to reconnect with your authentic self, empowering you to live a life that feels more aligned, confident, and fulfilling.

Training, qualifications & experience
As an integrative psychotherapeutic counsellor, I have extensive experience working with clients in a variety of settings, including in-person, online, and by telephone. I have supported individuals navigating a wide range of challenges, such as generalised anxiety, stress, depression, relationship issues, ADHD, obesity, and low self-esteem.
I am deeply committed to providing a safe, inclusive, and culturally sensitive space. I respect and value the unique backgrounds, experiences, and belief systems of every client I work with. My approach is shaped by an understanding of how factors such as race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, gender identity, and cultural heritage influence emotional wellbeing and personal growth.
I am proud to be a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). This membership reflects my commitment to upholding the highest professional and ethical standards, providing you with safe and effective counselling that puts your wellbeing at the centre of our work together.
Professional Memberships:
British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP)
Member organisations
BACP is one of the UK’s leading professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy with around 60,000 members. The Association has several different categories of membership, including Student Member, Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP, Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Accred) and Senior Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Snr Acccred). Registered and accredited members are listed on the BACP Register, which shows that they have demonstrated BACP’s recommended standards for training, proficiency and ethical practice. The BACP Register was the first register of psychological therapists to be accredited by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA). Accredited and senior accredited membership are voluntary categories for members who choose to undertake a rigorous application and assessment process to demonstrate additional standards around practice, training and supervision. Individual members will have completed an appropriate counselling or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but they won’t appear on the BACP Register until they've demonstrated that they meet the standards for registration. Student members are still in the process of completing their training. All members are bound by the BACP Ethical Framework and a Professional Conduct Procedure.
Accredited register membership
The Accredited Register Scheme was set up in 2013 by the Department of Health (DoH) as a way to recognise organisations that hold voluntary registers which meet certain standards. These standards are set by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).
This therapist has indicated that they belong to an Accredited Register.

Further information
If you are facing health-related issues, I offer an environment of safety and understanding where you can freely explore and process your emotions and thoughts. Together, we can also explore the underlying causes of any physical tension or pain you may be experiencing, with the aim of helping you find relief and inner balance.
I offer counselling services in both English and Somali, and I understand the importance of cultural and spiritual values, including those rooted in Islamic principles. Your faith and beliefs are respected and can be included in our work together, should you wish.
In addition to individual counselling, I also provide compassionate support to families who are caring for loved ones going through health-related challenges. My approach is always tailored to meet your unique needs, providing a safe, non-judgemental space for healing and growth.
