Miss Humera Patel

Clinical Mental Health Counselor

“Warm welcome! Humera here, I am a qualified counsellor, my aim is to offer a space for clients to grow and flourish in different areas of life; the experience of therapy aims to empower and explore difficult issues in a safe, warm, therapeutic space.”

About Me

I offer a warm, therapeutic space where you can gently explore life's challenges. My aim is for you to openly discuss concerns, fostering a sense of empowerment. We will work together to uncover valuable insights, helping you grow and flourish. This approach is ideal for anyone seeking a supportive, non-judgmental environment to understand themselves and move towards their goals.

Approach

You can expect gentle, collaborative sessions that focus on what matters most to you, helping shape practical steps at a pace that feels safe. I work with adults and children from Lancashire and online, and can support conversations in Gujarati or Hindi/Urdu when that helps connect meaning. Sessions often weave careful listening with creative ways to express difficult memories and explore spiritual or cultural values, with optional reflections between meetings to steady progress. This way of working suits people facing trauma, life changes or faith-related questions.
