More about Arham

  • 4 years' experience
  • Female
  • BACP

With several years of experience as a mental health counsellor, I bring expertise in Integrative Psychotherapy to my practice, tailored to address a diverse array of mental health challenges and traumas. Specializing in areas such as Child Sexual Abuse, domestic abuse, and others, I've assisted clients dealing with anxiety, depression, loss, isolation, and various forms of trauma. My personal background within a complex cultural framework enables me to connect empathetically with the culturally intricate and diverse issues that my clients encounter.

My therapeutic approach is deeply relational, drawing from evidence-based and trauma-informed modalities tailored to suit individual needs. I firmly believe in the transformative power of the therapeutic relationship, cultivating an open and non-judgmental space where clients feel safe to express their thoughts and emotions.

In therapy, I adopt an integrative style that considers both mind and body processes, exploring how early relationship dynamics shape present experiences. This journey of self-awareness and transformation emphasizes clients' strengths and resilience in overcoming challenges.

Therapy, for me, is a collaborative journey, characterized by mutual respect and shared responsibility. Placing utmost importance on the client's needs and goals, I prioritize a client-centred approach, ensuring that therapy remains focused on their unique journey towards healing and growth.

If you're considering embarking on this therapeutic journey, I extend a warm welcome. Taking that initial step towards therapy requires courage, and I commend you for taking it. Together, we will work towards achieving your goals. If you are considering therapy, I warmly invite you to take that first step, and I look forward to accompanying you on your path towards healing and well-being.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

I've had one session with Arham and she was very respectful and very reassuring. Arham made me feel very calm throughout the session.

Reviewed May 2024

Arham makes me feel so relaxed and calm. I was very apprehensive about starting therapy and wasn’t too sure if it was even going to be beneficial. Within the first couple of sessions I was already starting to recognise things and Arham gave a great balance of listening and input. I was matched perfectly and I have benefited greatly from it.

I'm new to better help but not to therapy. I have found Arham to be easy to confide in and trust. She gives me the space to explore my own feelings on my wellbeing and some good ideas for communication. Thanks Arham for listening.
