Understand your terrain.
Reclaim your life.
A life shaped by listening and healing.
I have been working as a counsellor and supporting individuals and families for the past 23 years. Fifteen of those years were spent in a community setting in Kingston upon Thames — before relocating to Islamabad, where my own cancer diagnosis opened a new chapter in my practice. My practice is not-for-profit in the truest sense — all consultation earnings go directly supporting empowering widows and educating their children. Today I offer a whole-person practice: counselling, metabolic terrain support, lifestyle guidance, and movement — all online, shaped around the individual.
You deserve to feel

I work to meet my clients where they are — without judgement, without pressure. Whatever you are carrying, there is space for it here.

What people say.
Rukhsana has been a great therapist in my experience. I was fortunate to come across her when I was going through a rough patch in my life. With her counselling services, I did not only get better dealing with stress but also learnt life long techniques of self care and adopting healthy practices. Rukhsana is gem of a person and is highly skilled in her profession. I can not thank her enough for being there as a therapist whenever I needed her. She can go an extra length for her clients and is simply passionate about her work. I wish her good luck in her future endeavors!
My journey started with Ms.Rukhsana in January 2023. This is my first time approaching someone for counseling and I had my reservations but contrary to my preconceived ideas about counselling, I found her methods to be productive. The sessions are conducted in a comfortable environment. I found Ms. Rukhsana to be kind, understanding and patient as she looks closely in on her clients’ wellbeing. Another plus is that she provides insightful leads after attentive listening. I’d recommend her to anyone looking for a start in counseling.
I came to know about Rukhsana from a dear cousin of mine who was going through a rough patch. I had been through my own ups and down. Ms Rukhsana was like a light blub. Suddenly I came out of darkness a lot of issues made sense. I began to see the rational of situations and relations.it bought a calmness that I needed. she have been my confidant my friends and most importantly my guide to help me through the maze that us life . She helped me build my confidence, my self respect. She is polite yet honest, gives you a different view to look at life
