Hi, I’m Mariam 👋
I’m a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) who takes a holistic, compassionate approach to supporting clients through life’s challenges. I don’t believe in a one-size-fits-all method; instead, I collaborate with each person to create a plan that truly fits who they are and what they’re going through.
My background is a little unique — before stepping into the therapy world, I spent over a decade working in higher education, helping students navigate complex systems and life transitions. Along the way, I saw how identity, mental health, and big life events can shape the way people learn, grow, and connect with the world. That inspired me to expand my work into psychotherapy and focus on helping individuals find clarity, confidence, and resilience through change.
I work with clients navigating:
-
Identity exploration and finding a stronger sense of self
-
Anxiety, stress, and self-doubt that impact daily life
-
Major life transitions and events, such as school changes, career shifts, or relationship changes
-
Neurodivergence, including building executive functioning skills and self-advocacy
-
Emotional expression and relationship challenges, especially in intercultural or multifaith contexts
My style is warm, curious, and non-judgmental. I draw on approaches like Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Emotion-Focused Therapy (EFT), and Solution-Focused Therapy (SFT), blending them to meet each client’s unique needs rather than sticking rigidly to one method. My goal is to create a safe, collaborative space where you can explore, heal, and feel empowered to move forward.
