Shabina Ishaq

Welcome, and thank you for visiting

I'm Shabina Ishaq, an accredited Psychotherapist and Clinical Supervisor based in South Yorkshire.

My approach is Integrative which is tailor made to suit individual clients needs. I offer 1 to 1 therapy for adults and young people, couples counselling, and EMDR therapy. From my private practice in South Yorkshire, as well as online and telephone, I support clients through a range of challenges, including anxiety, depression, trauma, and relationship difficulties

With over 13 years of experience and a Master's degree in Counselling and Trauma from the University of Nottingham, I've held roles as Clinical Lead for abuse and trauma services and currently work as a Specialist Mental Health and Learning Support Mentor at Universities. My extensive experience across hospice care, community services, and the voluntary sector has shaped my approach to providing compassionate, professional therapy tailored to each individual's needs.

Your Space to Talk

Your Space to Talk

In our sessions, you'll find a welcoming environment where you can express yourself openly without fear of judgment. Whether meeting in person or online, this is your time and space to explore your thoughts and feelings at your own pace.

Finding Your Path

Finding your path

Life brings many challenges - from relationship difficulties and work stress to anxiety and loss. Together, we'll explore what's troubling you, helping you understand your emotions better and discover ways to navigate through these challenging times.

Growth and Understanding

Growth and Understanding

Through our collaborative work, you'll develop deeper self-awareness and practical tools for everyday life. My role is to support you in building resilience, understanding yourself better, and making choices that align with your wellbeing.

MY APPROACH

Most of us at some point in our lives will experience problems and difficulties that leave us feeling emotionally drained and in despair. At such times we may feel unable to cope and may need some extra support. This is very common, completely natural, and there is no shame in asking for help.

Life's journey can be difficult at times and we can experience many challenges along the way. I offer a safe and confidential space where we can work together to explore whatever is happening for you and find the best way forward. Whether you're dealing with anxiety, depression, relationship issues, loss, or any other personal challenges, we can work together to help you understand your feelings better and develop ways to cope.
