IBN SINA

I've always been more of a listener than a speaker, a skill that has given me the ability to pick up on nuanced details. This has always made it easy for me to connect with people - skills that are essential for a good counsellor.

I understand that speaking about personal issues as a men can feel emasculating and embarrassing, but it doesn't have to be that way. A big part of the work I do is creating that environment that allows you talk about issues that affect you as a man.

I am uniquely placed to help men with mental health issues such as anxiety, social anxiety, depression, relationships, addictions as well as many other issues. My main focus is Muslim men as the vast majority don't have access to adequate counselling services.

Counselling can seem like an unconventional and unfamiliar route to take as a man. I make sure that you as the client are at the heart of the process, working with clear goals for the sessions. I work to ensure that you feel confident and comfortable to tackle your issues head on, without the vague and convoluted terms.
