About me
About me
As an integrative counsellor, I draw from a range of different counselling approaches such as Cognitive Behavioural therapy (CBT), Humanistic, Gestalt and Psychodynamic.
I combine aspects of each approach based on what you present with and what you are looking for.
I truly believe that everyone can benefit from counselling as it allows you to enhance your self awareness. It is a unique experience which is why it is important for me to tailor the approaches to your individual needs.
Through counselling I can help people navigate the challenges of life by creating a supportive, empathic environment that fosters personal growth.
I can work with a range of issues;
Depression
Anxiety
Low self esteem
Relational problems
Internal conflict
Cultural expectations
Grief/Loss
Feeling stuck
I have worked with a diverse range of clients with differences in age, race sexuality, religion.
I understand the important being able to express yourself in your native language. I am fluent in Urdu and Punjabi and I am happy to offer sessions in any of these languages.
It is also important that therapy is relevant and respectful to your reality.
As an Indo-Pakistani woman I understand the unique challenges faced by those from a South Asian background and I believe this enables me to better work with people from different cultural backgrounds.
Whether you are looking to navigate life's challenges or develop a deeper understanding of yourself, I'm here to help you on your journey.

Member organisations
school Registered / Accredited
Being registered/accredited with a professional body means an individual must have achieved a substantial level of training and experience approved by their member organisation.
The National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society This Not For Profit association of counsellors and psychotherapists aim to support the counselling profession, members and training organisations. In 2013 the NCS register was accredited by the Professional Standards Authority under the Accredited Voluntary Register Scheme. Accredited by the Professional Standards Authority.
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).
