About me and my therapy practice

Hello, I am Shamim, an accredited 麻豆原创 Counsellor and Psychotherapist working online and face to face with clients throughout the UK.

I am an integrative therapist offering a flexible and personalised approach to therapy. I believe there is no one-size-fits-all method when it comes to emotional wellbeing. Thats why I draw on a range of therapeutic approaches to support you as a unique individual.

My style is empathic, collaborative, and direct. I offer grounded, honest space where we can work together to understand the root causes of distress, explore limiting patterns, and work towards meaningful change.

As well as individual therapy, I deliver workshops within workplaces, encouraging conversations around mental health and therapy.

Practice description

I work Integratively, drawing from:

Humanistic therapy

Psychodynamic therapy

Mindfulness-based therapy

Transpersonal therapy

Creative therapy

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)

Solution-Focused Therapy

This allows me to adapt to your needs whether you want to focus on past experiences, present challenges, or future goals.

I currently have availability for telephone, online and face to face counselling.

My first session

Your first session is a chance to explore what's brought you to therapy and what you hope to gain from it. We can discuss how we will work together and you can decide if you would like to proceed with further sessions.

It is important that you feel comfortable and supported. This session is as much about you deciding whether I'm the right therapist for you as it is about beginning the work.

I offer a free 15-minute telephone consultation so we can talk through any questions you may have. Please get in touch to arrange a call or find out about current availability.

You can also message me from this page or via the link to my website above.
