About Mehbuba
She uses a relational, trauma-aware way of working that focuses on how early connections and current relationships shape feelings and behaviour. Sessions give space to tell your story, notice patterns, and try different ways of responding to strong emotions like anger. The therapist draws on client-centred listening so people set the pace and priorities in sessions.
Mehbuba brings five years of clinical experience and holds BACP, which is listed as her professional credential. She also has experience supervising other practitioners and teaching counselling students, work that informs her reflective practice. That background supports careful attention to ethics and ongoing learning.
In therapy she may use methods that look at personal narratives and relationship dynamics to help with intimacy, self-esteem and attachment difficulties. For trauma-related concerns, approaches that attend to bodily responses and memory processing are part of her reported toolkit. Sessions are practical and focused on small steps that fit into everyday life.
People who come for therapy with issues such as anger, addiction, grief or parenting stress can expect straightforward conversation, reflective questions and collaboratively agreed goals. The emphasis is on building skills to manage emotions and improving how life and relationships feel day to day.

How her approaches work online and in conversation
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships affect current feelings and reactions. It helps people understand why they may respond with anger or withdrawal in close relationships and supports new ways of connecting.Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and following the client's priorities. The counsellor provides empathic, non-judgemental attention so people can explore their concerns at their own pace and build confidence to make changes.
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a method used to process distressing memories. It can be helpful for people whose anger or anxiety is tied to past traumatic events, by reducing the emotional charge of those memories.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most helpful, then try approaches in a collaborative way. Clients and therapist review progress and adjust the plan as needed.
Many people find online therapy easier to fit into a busy life, for example by avoiding travel or timing sessions around work or childcare. Because the biography does not list specific session formats, please confirm which formats are offered before booking. Registered or accredited professionals can run effective therapy online, and the focus here is on helping people make steady, practical changes that suit their daily routines.
