About Me

I support individuals, couples, and families navigating life's complex challenges. As an Integrative Psychotherapist, I tailor our work to your unique needs. Perhaps you're facing anxiety, relationship difficulties, or the impact of trauma. We can explore these feelings and patterns together, drawing on various approaches, including EMDR when helpful. My aim is to create a flexible, supportive space for you to find clarity and build lasting resilience.

Approach

When anxiety, relationship strain or past hurts show up in a client's life, I focus on combining practical steps with gentle exploration to help you feel steadier and more seen. In Islamabad I offer in-person and secure online sessions in English or Hindi/Urdu, keeping a predictable pace so work feels manageable. Sessions alternate skill practice—mindfulness, grounding, behavioural experiments—and deeper processing like trauma-focused techniques, with brief between-session reflections to notice change. This approach tends to suit people seeking clear tools and deeper understanding through life's transitions.
