I work primarily with females experiencing mental health issues, burnout and stress. I see people through a holistic lens and aim to support you to find integration between mind, body and emotions. With lived experience, I understand how trauma disconnects us from our bodies and how difficult it is to sit with our emotions.

Hello :) I work with clients who experience anxiety, stress, trauma, abuse, PTSD, relationship issues, grief, chronic illness, injury, workplace issues and life changes. I have a warm, gentle and authentic approach. Clients often find it helpful to explore their needs and personal goals. Everyone deserves to feel heard and understood. Clients I work with highly value empathy, compassion, empowerment, collaboration and feeling safe in the counselling space to build a therapeutic alliance together. Nurturing self compassion is often helpful and leads to better treatment progress and outcomes.

I am an integrative arts psychotherapist, companioning adults of all ages and stages, and from all walks of life, in coming home to themselves for healing, growth, self-development and change. Some common themes we tend to are depression, self-esteem and confidence, life transitions, grief, dreams and nightmares, and spiritual and existential concerns. Drawing from multiple modalities, I practice with a blend of traditional Talk Therapy, Arts Therapy and Dreamwork, with creative and experiential approaches, through a psycho-spiritual lens. I am guided by my clients and their present moment experiences.

I draw from my decades of experience and professional training across a wide range of therapeutic modalities. My work is guided by a strong systemic approach: seeing all parts of a person, as well as the layers of relationships, family, work, culture and society that have and continue to influence and shape us. My approach ensures that each person I work with receives support tailored specifically for them.

My goal is to continue to see you progressing and moving towards your desired goal/feeling. Maybe you are needing coping skills to resolve a specific problem, or you need a safe place to feel listened to and supported. Whatever the reason, It all starts with a simple conversation. That’s all it ever needs to be!

I'm Kubra - and I work with kids, teens and young adults. Growing up neurodivergent can feel like you have been caught between two lands. There is the land of mainstream neurotypicalism - this land is made up of unspoken and confusing rules, uncomfortable clothes, and expectations about how you should move, speak, and look at other people (and for how long!).
