Mrs Zarlish Zafar

CBT Psychotherapist

“Experienced and compassionate psychotherapist has vast experience in dealing with depression, anxiety and other mental health disorders.”

About Me

When facing depression, anxiety, or other mental health challenges, finding the right support matters. This compassionate CBT Psychotherapist offers a structured, supportive space. Here, you can explore difficult feelings and develop practical strategies. Drawing on an M.Phil in Clinical Psychology, their experienced approach uses evidence-based techniques to build resilience. This makes them a strong match for those seeking clear, actionable steps towards improved well-being.

Approach

That experience shapes a focused, stepwise way of working where we map patterns, test small changes and track what shifts. Sessions in Karachi or online, in English or Urdu/Hindi, feel structured yet conversational: brief check-ins, targeted skill practice and collaborative planning between meetings. Assessments guide priorities for depression, anxiety, addiction or trauma responses, and CBT-style homework tests thoughts against real life so progress becomes visible. People seeking clear steps and steady support tend to find this practical pace helpful.
