"When we have the courage to walk into our story and own it, we get to write the ending"
Brené Brown
Online Counselling in Hertfordshire
As a counsellor I look to work in a relational way, supporting my clients in experiencing a safe and comfortable space to explore their deepest thoughts and feelings freely.
I believe the stories we tell ourselves about who we are possess great power and feeling in control of rewriting our own narrative can be a life changing experience.
About Me
My path to becoming a counselor was influenced by my personal experiences and my previous work with children and young people. Through this, I observed firsthand how easily they are shaped by their surroundings, the values and beliefs they absorb, and the environment they are born into. These early influences play a critical role in shaping how we navigate life, sometimes leading to conflicts between our true selves and inherited ideas, which can result in emotional challenges.
This understanding motivated me to pursue formal training at CU Coventry, where I earned a BA (Hons) Degree in Integrative Counselling Theory and Practice. I also completed a Level 2 CPCAB Certificate in Counseling Skills and worked towards becoming a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (MBACP).
Being a second-generation South Asian, I can relate in how external influences like culture can shape our identity and the conflicts that arise when trying to live according to our own voice.
As a registered member of the BACP with an integrative counselling qualification, I use various approaches to meet clients' holistic needs, offering a person-centred environment and incorporating psychodynamic and existential techniques to support growth and wellbeing. I have extensive experience within loss and grief alongside identity issues, trauma, mild to moderate mental health issues, relationship difficulties and many other areas.

Working With Me
Counselling with me involves delving into your unconscious mind by revisiting early childhood experiences and connecting with your inner child to heal lingering emotions. By identifying the core experiences that shape who you are today, we can explore how you want to live moving forward, redefining your values and beliefs, and finding freedom in shaping your future.
