Amina is a psychotherapist and counsellor based in Twickenham, West London, working with adults in person and online. She holds a Master's degree in psychotherapy and has been practising since 2011, with a particular focus on grief and loss. Her work is relational and existentially informed. Rather than treating therapy as a matter of fixing what is wrong, she works collaboratively to understand what a person has been through and to find a way forward with more clarity, self-compassion and resilience. Clients come to her with bereavement, anxiety and panic, depression, trauma, low self-esteem, relationship difficulties and periods of feeling stuck. Sessions begin with an initial assessment, followed by weekly therapy at a pace that feels sustainable.

About

Relational, existentially informed psychotherapist in Twickenham, West London. Grief, loss, anxiety and trauma. In-person and online sessions for adults.

Information

My approach is grounded in empathy and respect. I work relationally, drawing on existential therapeutic models to tailor therapy to your unique needs and goals. I don't see therapy as "fixing" you — because you are not broken — but as a gentle process of understanding what you've been through and finding ways to move forward with greater clarity, self-compassion and resilience.

How I work

  • Relational, existentially informed psychotherapy and counselling
  • Warm, empathic and non-judgemental therapeutic space
  • Focus on clarity, self-understanding and emotional resilience
  • Collaborative work at a pace that feels safe and sustainable for you

Availability

  • Based in Twickenham, West London
  • Working with adults
  • In-person and online sessions
  • Initial assessment before ongoing weekly work
