Working with Sunah Ahktar has been an incredible, transformative experience. From the very first session, I felt heard, supported, and understood in a way that I had never experienced before. She created a safe, non-judgmental space where I could open up about my challenges, and her empathetic and insightful approach helped me navigate through them with greater clarity and confidence.

Not only did Sunah Ahktar provide me with practical tools and strategies to manage my mental health, but she also empowered me to develop a deeper understanding of myself. The progress I’ve made during our sessions has been life-changing.

I am deeply grateful for her kindness, professionalism, and dedication to my well-being, and I highly recommend Sunah Ahktar to anyone seeking compassionate and effective therapy.

Matt was a patient listener as my therapist encouraging me to process the layers of my personal issues and core beliefs whilst intuitively weaving in thought provoking questions that empowered me to take better control of my life and distorted thinking.

Kind and compassionate I recommend him as a therapist.

Due to my life circumstances I knew I would only be able to have a very short course of therapy – I am so glad I was matched with Jill; I gained an outsized amount of new insight in our sessions. I found Jill to be very warm in her style and I felt comfortable opening up to her from the outset – she was an incredibly supportive listener as I wept through her box of tissues in our first session! I also particularly appreciated that in our sessions she went beyond just listening to an extent that not all therapists I have seen in the past have done – Jill asked specific follow-up questions to get me to explore and drill down into deeper layers of self-awareness – and she offered challenge, and, when appropriate, her own wise opinion, which I found really beneficial. I finished the sessions with a feeling of having shored up my resilience for approaching life-changes, and with some new behavioral / mindset interventions to put into practice to enhance my experience of day-to-day life. I would definitely recommend Jill as a therapist.

Talking therapy has changed my life, helping me much more than I thought it could. I would encourage anyone who is considering counselling to go for it.
