My Approach

Person-Centred Therapy is grounded in the belief that you are more than the labels given to you — by family, friends, workplaces, or society. I’m not here to tell you how you should be living, but to understand how you move through the world, and what meaning your experiences hold for you.

My work is inspired by Carl Rogers and the principles of Person-Centred therapy: empathy, authenticity, and unconditional positive regard. I see therapy as a collaborative relationship where power is shared, not imposed — and I hold space for how systems of inequality may shape your experience of the world.

This means we’ll look not just at internal struggles, but also at the wider context — the pressures, expectations, and identities that shape how you see yourself. Healing is a deeply personal process, but it’s not one you have to do alone. Community, humour, culture, and justice all matter here.

Therapy doesn’t have to be doom and gloom. Tears are welcome, but so is laughter. Your whole self is welcome in our room — however that shows up.

About Me

I work with clients navigating a wide range of life experiences — from relationship challenges and bereavement, to questions of identity, cultural tension, or managing psychiatric diagnoses. Whether you’re facing a big shift or feeling stuck in something harder to name, I offer a steady, non-judgemental space to help make sense of what’s going on.

My approach is collaborative and person-centred. You won’t get generic advice or homework sheets from me — I trust that you're the expert on yourself. Together, we’ll explore your inner world at your pace, working through what's holding you back and uncovering the values and strengths that can move you forward.

I started this work in 2017 and hold an MSc in Contemporary Person-Centred Psychotherapy from Metanoia Institute. Before retraining, I worked as an environmental journalist and in corporate communications, but I always found myself most energised by the relationships and the people behind the stories. I was born in Bedford to Bangladeshi parents (not to be confused with Bengali Indian — a surprisingly common conversation at bus stops), and grew up on a diet of Star Trek and sarcasm in Birmingham.
