About me
A psychologist who believes therapy should feel like a genuine conversation — warm, empathetic, and grounded in science.
My story
I became a psychologist because I kept meeting people carrying enormous burdens quietly — stress, grief, anxiety, old wounds — while telling the world they were fine. I wanted to be the person they did not have to pretend with.
My path began with a BSc in Psychology at Foundation University, followed by a Master’s in Clinical Psychology at SZABIST University Islamabad. Along the way I trained and practised at leading institutions including AFIMH, AFIRM, CMH Kohat, CMH Sargodha and FFH, where I learned to see emotional life through both a human and a scientific lens: what pain feels like, and what it does to the mind.
Today I work with clients across Pakistan — students, professionals, parents, and young people — supporting them through trauma, anxiety, depression, burnout, personality concerns, and the big transitions life brings. My sessions are warm, unhurried, and tailored to each individual.

My approach
I use approaches supported by research, adapted to your needs rather than a one-size-fits-all script. My background in clinical psychology and research means I can also explain the why behind what you are feeling, which many clients find deeply reassuring.
Family expectations, faith, community, log kya kahenge — these realities shape our inner lives. I work with your context, not against it, whether you are in Islamabad or abroad.
You set the pace. My role is to hold a space steady enough that you can finally put down what you have been carrying, and honest enough that real change becomes possible.
The best way to know whether we are a good fit is a free 15-minute intro call — no commitment, just a conversation.
