Hello

I鈥檓 Mariyam. Whatever brought you here I鈥檓 glad you came. I can imagine life can be distressing and difficult to navigate. I鈥檓 here to offer a warm, non-judgemental space where you can explore whatever鈥檚 troubling you, at your own pace. Working from a person-centred approach, I believe you are the expert on your own life and my role is to walk alongside you with genuine empathy, honesty, and acceptance, facilitating  you every step of the way. 

I find my career immensely rewarding and I have many gained years of experience doing what I love. I have completed a Bachelors degree in clinical psychology and a Master鈥檚 degree in Counselling and Positive Psychology. I strongly believe every human deserves access to ethical and inclusive mental health support. So, I put my heart and soul into it. 

 Here are my specialisms (but not limited to this)

鈥� Neurodiversity:  including autistic and ADHD clients, and those exploring a possible diagnosis, navigating masking, burnout, or a world not built with them in mind

鈥� Depression:  low mood, loss of motivation, and feeling stuck or disconnected

鈥� Anxiety:  persistent worry, panic, and the exhaustion of feeling constantly 鈥渙n alert鈥�

鈥� Domestic abuse : support for those currently in, leaving, or having left an abusive relationship, including the complex emotional aftermath

鈥� Relationships: romantic relationship difficulties, breakups, and family relationship struggles, including estrangement and complicated family dynamics

鈥� Life transitions : bereavement, separation and divorce, career change, becoming a parent, retirement, and other times of significant change or uncertainty

Many of my clients are navigating more than one of these areas at once a life transition can bring old patterns to the surface, just as anxiety or relationship difficulties often intensify during times of change. I understand how interconnected these experiences can be, and there鈥檚 no need to arrive with a the 鈥渞ight鈥� words.

I offer a confidential, integrative space with no agenda beyond your own. I tailor my sessions according to your needs. If you are someone who prefers a structured sessions I offer that and if you are someone who finds structured sessions overwhelming I go at a pace that鈥檚 right for you.

Sessions are available online and I offer an initial 15 minute free consultation so we can see if we鈥檙e a good fit. No pressure at all! 

If you decide to proceed with the sessions, then I offer 10 - 12 sessions.  Sessions are held weekly and are 50 minutes long. However, if you believe you might need less or more sessions feel free to discuss it at anytime during our consultation. 

If money is something that鈥檚 stopping you from accessing therapy.I offer a reduced and concessionary rate on a needs basis. I also offer invoices to most of my clients so they can claim it with their workplace. 

Whatever you鈥檙e carrying you don鈥檛 have to do it alone. You deserve the support!

I can imagine how daunting it must be to discuss your personal experiences with someone you don't know. I make sure to ease your worries. I talk about the counselling contract and what to expect from counselling. If it feels too overwhelming we practice a few grounding techniques first. Every session is based on your pace and what you find most comfortable talking about. 

If you feel comfortable sharing we work together to complete two assessment forms, which are short questions to know how you have been feeling over the past two weeks.
