About me and my therapy practice
Hiya, I’m Fatema, an integrative counsellor, but before anything else, I’m human; and I believe real healing starts with genuine human connection.
I’m passionate about helping people break free from unhelpful patterns and supporting them to gain an understanding of themselves. Together, we will explore your thoughts and feelings, and navigate through life’s challenges. Whether you want to delve into your past, or focus on current struggles, my goal is to find a way to encourage you to reach your goals and find peace.
Through connection and care, I aim to create a safe space where you can open up to your innermost thoughts and feelings, and I will walk alongside you on the journey to self awareness and growth. Through deepening your understanding of how you relate to yourself, others, and the world around you, my hope is that you will discover new ways of living your life with greater clarity and ease.
You don’t necessarily need to know what you are struggling with or have a name for it, you may just be feeling unsettled. But I can also support with:
Stress, Low Mood, Overwhelm, Anxiety, Depression, Bereavement, Cultural Issues, Childhood Trauma, Trauma, Abuse, Personal Development, Relationships, Self Esteem.
Each week, you will have a dedicated space to delve into your experiences, thoughts and behaviours.
If you would like to find out more, or have any questions please feel free to get in touch.
Practice description
Being an integrative therapist allows me to lean into various modalities and types of counselling to ensure our sessions are person centred to you, and align with your unique needs, wishes and goals.
I offer a free 20 minute conversation either online or on the phone to get a sense of one another and to see if we would be the right fit.
Sessions last 50 minutes and are held on Microsoft Teams.
I offer both short and long-term therapy and we can discuss the planned duration of our work together during our initial session. Short term therapy lasts for 7 sessions (the initial session and 6 subsequent). At the half way mark, we can explore your progress at that point, and for long term therapy, we will review approximately every 6-8 weeks.
My first session
Our first session will be an assessment, a chance for us to get to know each other better, explore what has brought you to therapy and how we can work together
