It’s my first time trying therapy, and I’m lucky enough to meet Shabina! She’s really professional and kind. With the progression of my therapy sessions, I could feel that I became more and more confident and less anxious. :))

More about Shabina
- 3 years' experience
- Female
- NCPS
I am a credentialed professional in the UK with three years of experience helping clients with relationship issues, family conflicts, coping with grief and loss, motivation, self-esteem, and confidence. I work to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgement. Taking the first step toward a more fulfilling and happier life takes courage, and I am here to support you in that process. I also have a deep awareness of cultural constraints and generational traumas carried through families.
Before becoming a qualified therapist, I had extensive experience working within the Urdu-speaking community. I use the language and its rich nuances to help you explore and understand your internal battles. I am fluent in spoken Urdu , however consider myself as intermediate or at a primary level when it comes to reading and writing.
I am also fluent in Punjabi , however do not read or write it. I am deeply familiar with the culture and traditions associated with the language. I understand the unique issues faced by people from the subcontinent, including the traumas of the past and how history has shaped the current challenges experienced by Punjabis. While traditions and customs can offer liberation, they can also be restrictive and hinder progress. Parental expectations and demands often create barriers to personal desires and autonomy.
Having been raised in a multicultural society where cultural influences are strong and sometimes dominating, I strive to create a safe and open space for you to explore and discuss your challenges with a deep cultural understanding and background.

About online counseling

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
