About Me

I am a licensed psychotherapist in Karachi, Sindh, Pakistan. I work with you on abuse, addiction, conduct problems, grief, and mood disorders. I offer trauma counseling, relationship counseling, group therapy, and clinical supervision.

Approach

Integrative tools shape how I attend to addiction and grief, blending empathy with clear structure so the work feels steady and manageable. In Karachi or online, in English or Urdu, sessions move at your pace — we set short goals, practise grounding and coping between meetings, and bring relationships and life context into the process when helpful. I balance gentle challenge with practical skills, tracking small changes so progress is visible. People seeking focused, collaborative support for mood and trauma-related struggles tend to find this approach useful.
