Specialising in culturally sensitive counselling and empowerment coaching for South Asian women, while supporting adults from all backgrounds with anxiety, identity and life transitions.
You may be here because:
- You are looking for a safe, confidential and culturally sensitive space.
- You want support that understands culture, faith and family values without judgement.

I am Rabina, a fully qualified Person-Centred Counsellor offering online counselling across the UK, and a Women's Empowerment Coach supporting South Asian women.
I work with adults experiencing anxiety, bereavement, trauma and emotional distress, and with women who feel ready to build confidence, reconnect with themselves and move forward with greater clarity and self-trust.
You maybe feeling overwhelmed, emotionally stuck, or carrying a lot quietly whilst balancing expectations, responsibilities and your own inner needs. You might be navigating loss, life transitions, identity questions or longstanding emotional patterns, and finding it hard to prioritise yourself.
I offer a warm, confidential and culturally sensitive space where you can explore your thoughts and feelings safely, without judgement and at your own pace whether through counselling or coaching.
My Counselling Approach
As a counsellor, I offer safe, confidential, and non-judgemental space where you can feel heard, understood and supported.
I work from a person-centred perspective, which means our work is guided by what matters most to you. I believe healing begins when you are truly listened to with empathy, respect, and care.
My role is to walk alongside you as you explore your thoughts, feelings and experiences at your own pace.
I have a particular understanding of the cultural, family and societal pressures often experienced by South Asian women, while supporting adults from all backgrounds.
Counselling can support you if you are experiencing:
- Anxiety, stress or feeling emotionally overwhelmed
- Bereavement, loss or unresolved grief
- Low mood or depression
- Trauma, abuse or longstanding emotional pain
- Life transitions, identity questions or loss of direction
You do not have to go through this alone. I offer gentle, tailored counselling support to help you explore your thoughts and feelings gain deeper self-understanding and move forward in a way that feels right for you.
Reaching out takes courage, if you are reading this you have already taken a meaningful first step towards support.
My Coaching Approach
Alongside counselling, I offer women's empowerment coaching for South Asian women who feel ready to focus on confidence, boundaries, identity and personal growth.
Coaching is forward-focused and supports you in building clarity, self-belief and meaningful change.
Coaching may be suitable if you feel emotionally stable but want support with direction, confidence, life transitions or reconnecting with yourself.
