About me
Hello - thank you for being here. I'm Farheen, and I'd like to start by saying: however you're feeling about being here, nervous, unsure, relieved, that's completely normal, and welcome. I offer a space where you can show up as you are, without having to explain or justify yourself.
Whether this is your first time in therapy or you're coming back after a while, my aim is to make our work together feel collaborative and free of judgment. I believe our differences make us human, and I offer a welcoming space to clients of any age, faith, sexual orientation or gender identity.
I value building a strong therapeutic relationship, and bring an intersectional lens to our work - keeping your identity, culture and language in mind as part of the picture, not separate from it. I will work with you to help you make sense of what is going on for you.
I have spent several years researching body image and self-esteem before I qualified as a counsellor. I specialise in working with body dysmorphia and disordered eating, and can also offer support with anxiety, depression, ADHD, life transitions, and grief and loss.
I work with young adults and adults, both online and in person. In-person counselling is offered in a calm, relaxing and beautiful space in Archway, North London.
If you think we could be a good fit, I'd love to hear from you. You don't have to know exactly what to say to come to counselling. I offer a 15-minute free consultation, to give you an opportunity to get to know me and see if we could work together. You can also learn more about me on my website and contact me directly there.
