More about Mariam

  • 3 years' experience
  • Female
  • HCPC

Hello there! I am a registered Bilingual culturally informed counsellor/psychotherapist with the BACP with experience of working in the NHS, voluntary sector, and private practice. Currently, I am working in the Secondary Care Service within the NHS as a Counselling Psychologist (in-Training). I am also in my final year of a Professional Doctorate in Counselling Psychology at the University of East London. I work with people experiencing a full range of emotional difficulties and life challenges, offering short and long-term psychological therapy interventions.

As an experienced practitioner, I firmly believe that every person is unique. Therefore every session is tailored to each client's presenting problem, goals, expectations and motivation. I work integratively, which means I am skilled in various psychological approaches such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Psychodynamic, and Person-Centred Therapy.

I understand that seeking professional help can often seem daunting. I offer a safe, warm, non-judgemental and confidential space to ensure you feel comfortable doing so. I believe that you are the expert on your story and have many strengths that will assist you in overcoming things that challenge you. It takes courage to seek a more fulfilling and happier life and take the first steps towards a change. I am here to support & empower you in that journey.

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.
