About me
Are you feeling overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, or finding it difficult to cope with the challenges life has placed in front of you? Perhaps you're struggling in your relationship, feeling weighed down by family expectations, living with anxiety, or simply feeling that you've lost sight of who you are. Whatever has brought you here, you don't have to face it alone.
Seeking therapy can feel like a big step, and it's natural to feel uncertain. My priority is to provide a safe, confidential and non-judgemental space where you can talk openly, feel heard and begin to make sense of your experiences at your own pace.
I am an experienced integrative counsellor, life coach and Islamic marriage counsellor, working with adults, couples and young people. I believe there is no "one-size-fits-all" approach to therapy. Instead, I tailor our sessions to your individual needs, drawing on different therapeutic approaches while always placing our relationship at the heart of the work.
Many of the people I work with come to therapy feeling stuck. They may be experiencing anxiety, low self-esteem, relationship difficulties, family conflict, grief, stress, cultural pressures, or major life changes. Together, we explore what has brought you to this point, helping you understand patterns that may be keeping you stuck while developing healthier ways of coping and moving forward.
I have a particular interest in supporting couples navigating family and marital relationships, individuals experiencing relationship challenges, and those balancing cultural, religious or family expectations with their own emotional wellbeing. My experience as an Islamic marriage counsellor allows me to support clients in a culturally sensitive way while always respecting each person's individual beliefs, values and choices. Whether you are seeking faith-informed counselling or a more general therapeutic approach, we will work in a way that feels right for you.
Alongside relationship work, I regularly support clients experiencing anxiety, depression, bereavement, trauma, confidence issues, workplace stress, life transitions and feelings of being overwhelmed. My aim is not simply to help you cope with today's difficulties but to help you build lasting emotional resilience and greater self-understanding.
Clients often tell me they appreciate my warm, calm and compassionate approach. I believe therapy works best when you feel accepted without judgement and supported to be yourself. You don't need to have everything figured out before coming to counselling, we can work through it together.
I offer both online and face to face counselling, providing flexibility around your lifestyle and commitments. Sessions are collaborative, and you remain in control of the pace and direction of our work together.
If you're wondering whether counselling is right for you, I'd be happy to answer any questions you may have. Taking the first step can often be the hardest, but it can also be the beginning of meaningful and lasting change.
Training, qualifications & experience
I am an integrative counsellor with over four years' experience supporting adults, couples and university students through a wide range of emotional and psychological challenges, including anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, family conflict, low self-esteem, grief and life transitions. Alongside my counselling practice, I also work as an Islamic marriage counsellor, offering relationship and pre-marital counselling. I have experience supporting clients from diverse cultural and faith backgrounds and provide a warm, confidential and non-judgemental space where every client feels respected, heard and understood.
I hold a Level 5 Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling and am a registered member of both the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and the National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society (NCPS). I have also completed additional training in Transactional Analysis (TA101), cultural competence and grief counselling.
I am committed to ongoing professional development to ensure I provide the highest standard of care. In 2025, I completed over 120 hours of CPD, including attending the Transform Trauma conference in Oxford and specialist workshops on trauma, attachment and recovery. I have also undertaken international training in Indonesia focusing on trauma and identity, further strengthening my understanding of how culture, family experiences and life events shape emotional wellbeing.
My approach is integrative, meaning I tailor therapy to your individual needs rather than expecting you to fit one particular model. Together, we will explore what has brought you to counselling, identify what you hope to achieve and work at a pace that feels right for you. I believe therapy is a collaborative process built on trust, respect and compassion, with your values, choices and goals guiding our work.
Whether you are seeking support with relationships, family dynamics, anxiety, grief, confidence, cultural pressures or life's many transitions, my aim is to help you gain greater self-understanding, build resilience and create meaningful, lasting change.
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.
