Background
Having worked as a therapist since 2014 I am experienced in providing therapy to clients to support them with a range of difficulties.
I have experience of providing long-term psychodynamic psychotherapy and short term counselling to adults in private practice, the third sector and the NHS.
My professional background also includes working therapeutically with children, young people and refugees affected by PTSD, trauma, depression and anxiety in the third sector and the NHS.
Some of the organisations I have worked for are Tower Hamlets CAMHS, Newham & Tower Hamlets Mind, Waterloo Community Counselling, Barnardo’s, Dost Centre for Young Refugees & Migrants and the Refugee Council.
Qualifications and professional membership
My qualifications include a Masters in Psychodynamic Counselling & Psychotherapy (Distinction) completed at Goldsmiths University and a Post Graduate Diploma in Child and Young Person’s IAPT Therapy (Merit) completed at Kings College London.
Prior to training as a therapist I worked in the third sector providing immigration advice, welfare advice and advocacy to separated children seeking asylum in the UK. I remain passionate about issues of social justice and human rights.
Of Indian heritage, I am a person of colour and Muslim. I work with clients from a range of racial and ethnic backgrounds, class and faith reflecting the beauty of London’s diverse population. I welcome all clients to my practice.
