Meet your therapist

Hi, Hey, Hello, Salam Alaikum, I’m Sumeya.

I specialise in supporting clients through anxiety, depression, self-esteem
challenges, cultural identity, trauma recovery, and relationship dynamics.

I also work with survivors of childhood and adult sexual abuse, offering a compassionate and culturally sensitive approach.


I like to work holistically, honouring the whole person—mind, heart, and identity. I understand first-hand how culture, faith, and personal experiences shape our mental health journeys, and I meet you exactly where you are.


I offer in-person sessions and occasionally online.

Imagine this being your new reality...

✅ You'll understand why you are the way you are
✅ Take control of your life
✅ Self-awareness transforms how you move through the world

✅ Your culture and identity are celebrated, not just accepted
✅ You feel connected to your body and heart..

Wondering How This All Works?

Let’s clear up the question marks.

  • I offer sessions in person at West Hampstead or Kings Cross London and occiasionally online

  • We'll take it step by step, if you like you tell me about your concerns, doubts, or ask any questions and I can explain everything along the way.

  • I hear you. Sometimes it takes a few tries. Let's chat about what didn't work before and how we can make this time different.

  • Sessions cost £50 per session

  • No not yet, but if you do want do get creative in whichever way you want, we can always do that.

  • That's what the free consultation is for. We'll chat, you'll get a feel for my style, and we'll both know if it's right. No pressure, just honest conversation.

  • A chill start: This might not be what you want to hear, but the first session is however you want it to be, you can talk about anything, go at your own pace. Share what you’re ready to. No pressure. 

    It might feel awkward: That’s normal. It often gets easier as you go. Therapy is all about you. Just showing up is a huge step!

    A little Q&A: During the first sessions we'll probably run through a contract, I may ask you why you’ve chosen to come to therapy? your life, and what you want to work on, and yes, it's okay if you don’t know what you want to work on. 

  • Yes, low-cost rates are available for students and those from low-income backgrounds. Lets discuss this during our first call.
