You don't have to keep carrying this alone.​

If you've been feeling anxious, overwhelmed, low, or stuck in patterns you can't seem to shift, therapy can help. I’m Gulshan, an integrative counsellor and psychotherapist based in London, UK offering online therapy for adults.

 

Together, we'll work at your pace to understand what you're experiencing and make space for real change.

You might be in the right place if:

  • You're struggling with anxiety, low mood, or overwhelming emotions and it's starting to affect your daily life.

  • You've been through something painful, such as a loss, a difficult relationship, or experiences from the past that still feel very present.

  • You want to understand yourself better and build a life that feels more like yours.

I work with adults across a range of experiences including anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, relationship difficulties, low self-esteem, OCD, and stress.

Therapy in your language...

Finding a therapist who understands your cultural background and can speak with you in your first language makes a real difference to how safe and understood you feel in sessions.

 

I offer therapy in English, Pashto, and Farsi/Dari, and I work with clients from a wide range of ethnic, cultural, and religious backgrounds.

Starting therapy can feel daunting, especially if you've never done it before. Here's how it works:

  1. Book a free call. We spend 20 minutes getting to know each other. No pressure, no commitment. Just a chance to talk and see if it feels like the right fit.

  2. Start at your pace. Sessions are 50 minutes, weekly or fortnightly. We'll agree together how many sessions make sense for you, short-term or ongoing.

  3. Build something that lasts. The goal isn't just to feel better in the room. It's to develop the understanding and tools that stay with you.

 

Sessions are available online and in person. I work with clients based anywhere in the UK.

 

Individual therapy is £50 per session. Student discount available.

Ready to take the first step?

The fact that you're here means something. Reaching out takes courage, and it's often the hardest part. I offer a free 20-minute consultation so we can talk before you commit to anything.​​​​
