Rate Dr. Pegah Houshmand

Great therapist, very reactive and supportive.

Pegah is an amazing therapist. She is a great listener and really knows how to untangle the root causes of complex emotions.

It has been a pleasure doing therapy with Pegah. She is very well versed in knowledge, understanding and empathy, and I felt like I was talking to a friend. I can gladly say that I'm now in a better place mentally and physically, and really appreciate Pegah's encouragement and motivational tips. I would definitely recommend Pegah!

From the very first moment, I felt a deep sense of trust and ease with Pegah. She listens with genuine attentiveness, creating a space where my thoughts and concerns feel valued. Her presence offers both comfort and guidance, allowing me to explore my thoughts freely. I truly appreciate the safe and supportive space she provides, where I can be open without hesitation.

Pegah is excellent in every way and remains the same as she was when we first engaged with each other.

I've only had 2 sessions so far with Pegah and I feel so much positive change has already happened. I've saw several counsellors/therapists and psychologists in the past but she is by far the best. I left my very first session feeling like a part of me had returned and I think this is due to her amazing ability to really see you and make you feel heard. Her approach is gentle, but not too gentle it comes across as fake. You can tell she's a real person who is genuinely listening and she has a good sense of humour too. She comes across as someone who is highly intelligent with a lot of knowledge about how our minds work - I feel like I'm in very safe hands. For me, Pegah has the perfect balance of everything you'd want from a person who is helping you learn more about yourself. If you're on the fence about whether or not to start therapy as you're worried about not clicking with your therapist, I hope this review helps. Thank you Pegah, I'll always remember our sessions and everything you've taught me.

Pegah has been incredibly helpful in supporting me through a very difficult time in my life. She has helped me to understand my emotions better, challenge unproductive or unhelpful thoughts, and ultimately find ways to move forward positively in my life. She is always understanding and empathetic and never judgmental. Pegah is very responsive and organised, responding to journal entries through the BetterHelp platform which I have found really helpful for working through things between our regular sessions. She also provides very practical advice and techniques that can be undertaken in your own time to improve your mental health. She's a great therapist and I'd highly recommend to anyone in need of extra support or going through a difficult time.

She’s awesome

Time goes by so fast when I'm having a session with Pegah, she listens carefully and shows expressions that indicates she is listening to me. She is super down to earth and I'm not nervous when I talk to her, I can be transparent when it comes to my emotions with her! Thank you Pegah for being who you are :)

Pegah Houshmand is a really considerate person who listens and respects the issues I have, she gives me time to go through the things I need without feeling rushed. We are working towards a goal of emdr therapy, yes it will take time to get there but I feel good about the approach we are going with. She doesn't judge me or my opinions she does challenge my thoughts on myself in a really good manner and I feel this is very constructive for what I need for my therapy. I would recommend Pegah whole heartedly. I'm very happy with therapy I am receiving.

Brilliant

Pegah is reassuring l, fantastic and really listens.

Pegah has helped me greatly in navigating leaving a toxic workplace and finding healing and inspiration again. She is a great listener, speaks her mind on the origins and potential solutions to the issue and is very helpful overall! Definitely recommend working with Pegah!

Pegah has been very supportive in finding my voice - she allows me the space to speak and provides helpful perspectives and tips to help me think differently and gain confidence.

Petah listens but I don’t feel judged. Strategies to help are useful , realistic and achievable. Only had a few sessions but already feeling more positive , uplifted and hopeful . Would certainly recommend Pegah x

So far Pegah has been a very conscientious therapist, sending me various tips and strategies throughout the week. My contact time with her has been very useful so far, and I like that the she talks and gives me live feedback and suggestions during our sessions.

Pegah is great at giving advice. She’s also attentive and diligent to each individual she caters for. I would recommend having her as a therapist!

Pegah has been crucial in helping me improve my mental health, which had been declining due to a toxic work environment that showed no signs of improvement. She has offered me numerous useful tips on how to manage the emotional challenges I face in this workplace, how to distance myself from negativity, and how to maintain belief in myself despite the persistent negativity around me. Although I am transferring to another workplace, these experiences tend to linger and shape us. Pegah has been invaluable in providing insights into these processes and helping me make changes that have significantly improved my well-being. I wholeheartedly recommend working with Pegah!

Perfect in every way

Pegah is an amazing listener and knows how to guide.

She's a nice therapist and she helped me a lot

I am very grateful for Pegah’s help, she is a wonderful counsellor and very empathetic lady. She has opened my eyes on how to heal and live a better life. Thank you so much!

Pegah is a wonderful counsellor. We worked through things step by step and tackled each challenge one after another. She provided a range of strategies and exercises to use daily, and she gave excellent pushes in the right direction for all sorts of different things that I was facing. We worked from the bottom up, tackling the past, then the present and the future. After the processing of emotions and experiences, we moved forward to positive actions, and setting goals and attainable objectives. She helps you reflect on yourself and ask the questions you hadn’t thought to ask. She shows you another angle and helps you change your mindset and look at things differently. I have come out of therapy feeling motivated and encouraged to find happiness and to strengthen positivity in my life. She was a big support during a tough time, and I must say it was hard to let go of her, we really built a strong professional connection. She doesn’t see this as goodbye and gave wonderful advice that I can return anytime if I am in need of her support again. I really recommend her. Thanks so much Faithful Counselling!

I am grateful for being matched with Pegah. She is very helpful and patient with me. She knows her profession well and I am happy especially with her knowledge of the step work as I need support in this area. She is definitely a God's blessing.

Pegah is very professional, friendly, has a depth of understanding and easy to talk to. I've only just started with Pegah, but I knew from the first session that she is the right counsellor for me, as we explore through a lot together.

Very good exp

Pegah has been excellent so far in my journey of therapy with her. She has been kind, understanding, and very accepting of what I have to say and the thoughts and feelings that I go through. She always says the right things to settle my anxiety as an overthinker and I feel that through more sessions with her, I am beginning to feel more confident in my journey of healing.

Pegah is a very good listener and very supportive. She answers all my questions on a timely manner. She is so professional. I cannot recommend her enough.

Very helpful and knowledgeable therapist that is helping me to challenge my negative thought processes. Also in building up positive thought processes.

She is very tentative and listens to you.

The sessions are really helpful. Pegah is respectful, has a great listening ear and is very supportive. I like how I can connect with Pegah throughout the week by sharing my journal and she always provides encouraging feedback and ideas to help me on my journey.

Pegah is very thoughtfull and intuitive. She helps me boost my confidence and build a better future for myself, also knows how to supportively and actively chalenge my negative Setting.

Very understanding, knowledgable, makes me feel at ease. Makes me feel understood and works through each issue thoroughly

I really appreciate Pegah’s ability to be both gentle and understanding but also firm in her validation for what I’m experiencing and also in advising me with practical steps I can take to help myself.
