About me

Welcome!

I'm Robina and I understand searching through so many  profiles can feel daunting.

As an empathic professional, I am passionate about helping people to feel better. From experience, the quality of the therapeutic relationship is key to processing experiences and moving forward.

Perhaps you are experiencing anxiety, anger, low mood or stress due to recent or historical events? Maybe you want / need a change? Perhaps you are not feeling like your usual self, or are avoiding socialising?

Whether you are Autistic, AuDHD or ADHD, Muslim, South Asian or not, I will support you without bias and with compassion.

How I help:

Sessions are led by you, and my aim is to provide you a safe space to be yourself. I encourage you to reflect upon experiences, connect with your body and process your feelings.

There is no rush, you gain what you gain when you gain it.

Together we join the dots regarfing what you share to help us see the bigger picture.

My commitment to you:

To be open and authentic, patient and calm. To always be honest with you and treat you with respect regardless of your ethnicity, culture, faith or ability.

What would I like from you?

To be yourself, whatever that looks like. 

Next steps?

I invite you to book a free consultation to see if we have the potential of being a good therapeutic match.

I look forward to hearing from you!

Warmest regards 

Robina

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

British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy
Accredited Register Scheme

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.

Key details

DBS check info

In England and Wales, the Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS, formerly known as CRB) carry out criminal records checks for individuals working with vulnerable groups, such as children. To find out more, visit gov.uk , or contact this professional directly

Wheelchair user access info
Wheelchair user access

Wheelchair-accessible premises should have step-free access for wheelchair users and individuals who are unable to climb stairs. If a Counsellor's premises aren't step-free, they may offer alternative services such as telephone/web-based appointments, home visits, or meeting clients in different location, so you can choose the option that suits you best.

You can contact the Counsellor to discuss the options available.

Under the Equality Act 2010 service providers have a duty to make reasonable adjustments to ensure that individuals with disabilities can access their service. You can read more about reasonable adjustments to help you to access services on the CAB website.

Entrance to the building and toilets are both accessible. There is a small lift that accommodates one wheelchair.
