About me

Welcome I'm Kam, thank you for taking the time to visit this page.

I'm a qualified and experienced Integrative and Relational Counsellor, and I believe in the power of talking therapy to create meaningful change. 


Whether you’re feeling overwhelmed, emotionally stuck, or unsure how to move forward, you're not alone, and what is good is that you don’t have to navigate it on your own. 


I know first-hand how transformative it can be to have a space where your thoughts are heard, and your experiences are understood. My own journey with therapy inspired my deep passion for supporting others, especially during those moments when emotional resilience feels out of reach. It’s in those moments that change is most possible.

How I Work - I offer a compassionate, non-judgemental space where you can safely explore whatever’s on your mind, be it past trauma, current emotional challenges, or future fears. My approach is integrative, drawing from different therapeutic models to suit your individual needs, and relational, meaning the connection we build together is central to the process. 


I’ve had the privilege of working with many remarkable individuals and couples over the years. Together, we’ve explored a range of issues, including: 
Depression and low mood 
Anxiety and stress 
Relationship challenges and couples’ conflict 
Trauma and loss 
Neurodiverse needs (ADHD and Autism) 
Emotional regulation and burnout 


I understand that it’s not always easy to open up, especially when you feel misunderstood by those closest to you. Talking about experiences such as ADHD, anxiety, or relational pain can often feel isolating. That’s why I’m committed to providing a space where you feel seen, heard, and safe; a place where we work together to build understanding, resilience, and renewed emotional strength. 


What You Can Expect- A warm and supportive environment where you're free to be yourself and sessions that are tailored to you, at your pace.
A focus on helping you build emotional regulation, self-awareness, and empowered thinking. 
A collaborative journey where you set the goals, and I walk alongside you. 
Whether you're looking to heal, grow, or simply make sense of things, I’m here to support you. 

Ready to take the first step? Feel free to reach out for a free initial consultation, where we can talk about what you’re looking for and how I can help. 

Training, qualifications & experience

I  am a qualified Integrative and Relational Counsellor with over 18 years of experience working with individuals and couples. My approach combines several therapeutic models to support clients in a way that is both flexible and tailored to their needs. 

I have supported clients through a wide range of emotional and psychological challenges, including: 
ADHD/ADD and neurodiverse needs 
Anxiety, depression, and low mood 
Relationship difficulties and couples’ conflict 
Identity crisis, self-esteem, and self-worth issues 
Parenting stress and family challenges 
Women’s health (menopause, peri-menopause, fertility concerns) 
Stress and burnout (including work-related and financial stress) 
Intimacy issues and communication difficulties 
Loss, grief, and life transitions 
Trauma and past abuse 

I work confidently with adults, adolescents, and older adults from diverse cultural and social backgrounds. My experience includes:

I also offer therapy in Punjabi, ensuring accessibility for clients who prefer to work in their native language. 

I work in a relational and integrative manner, meaning I combine different therapeutic models and place strong emphasis on the quality of the client-therapist relationship. I believe that feeling seen, heard, and understood is key to making positive and lasting changes. I integrate a variety of therapeutic tools, including: 
Person-Centred Therapy 
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) 
Brief Solution-Focused Therapy 
Motivational Interviewing 
Compassion-Focused Therapy (CFT) 
Coaching techniques 
Mindfulness, meditation, and psychoeducation 

A flexible, client-led approach allows me to support clients seeking both short-term focused work and longer-term therapeutic exploration. 

I have extensive experience working with individuals from a variety of cultural backgrounds and am committed to offering a culturally sensitive and inclusive practice. 

I also have experience in risk assessment and safeguarding, ensuring that therapy remains a safe space; particularly for those experiencing crisis or emotional distress. 

I am a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and fully adhere to their ethical framework and professional standards. I actively engage in ongoing training and CPD to ensure my practice remains current, ethical, and effective. 

Member organisations

BACP
British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy (BACP)

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
