I'm Mina, a UK based BACP registered integrative relational therapist working online with adults. I specialise in childhood trauma, low self-esteem, and relational patterns — the deep-rooted ways our past shapes how we feel about ourselves and how we relate to others.
What sessions with me are actually like:
Sessions with me are warm, but not passive. I don't sit in silence waiting for you to fill the space. I'm actively engaged — noticing patterns, gently naming what I observe, asking the questions that feel worth sitting with. I reflect back what I hear, including the things that might be harder to hear, because I believe that kind of honest, caring presence is what makes therapy genuinely useful rather than directionless.
Who I typically work with:
I work with adults navigating a wide range of difficulties, though my work has a particular focus on:
Childhood trauma and its long-term effects on self-worth, relationships, and emotional regulation
Low self-esteem and the inner critic — the harsh, relentless voice that tells you that you're not enough
Relational patterns — repeating dynamics in relationships, difficulties with trust or intimacy, and fear of abandonment
Anxiety, depression, and the ways these often connect to earlier experience
Life transitions and identity — particularly for those navigating significant personal change
If any of this resonates, I'd encourage you to reach out. I offer a 15 min free no obligation consultation.
