Farzana is brilliant. Kind, compassionate and truly took the time to listen to me, and get to know me. She remembered everything from our previous sessions together which I also really appreciated. She made me feel at ease and comfortable throughout the sessions and was very empathetic towards me. Highly recommend her

Life can feel overwhelming — whether you’re facing grief, anxiety, stress, depression, or relationship struggles. You don’t have to face it alone.
I offer supportive, down-to-earth counselling where you can talk openly and honestly, without filters or judgment.
Together, we’ll explore what you’re going through, uncover what’s beneath the surface, and find practical ways to cope and move forward. My approach is gentle, human, and focused on what matters most to you — no pressure, no quick fixes, just steady support at your pace.
Taking the first step is often the hardest. You don’t need to have it all figured out — reaching out is enough, and I’ll be here to support you from there.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.
Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
