Counselling and Psychotherapy in Southampton & ONLINE

"I went to therapy as I felt there were things from my past holding me back and wanted that to change, living more in the present and overcoming past hardships. Exploring your own traumas and difficulties can be overwhelming and difficult to navigate on your own and the guidance of a professional can help you overcome these. Azra is a warm, caring and reassuring therapist who facilitates the exploration of emotion, memories and circumstances to help you move past previous difficulties. She is astute, picking up on minute details in your recounts, probes further into your answers or challenges you, all leading to a healthier mindset and self-compassion. Azra additionally provides resources, shares information and can set tasks for you to do to further help your healing process. Therapy with Azra helped me overcome past traumas and memories that were circulating my mind for a long time. My symptoms reduced and past traumas became more far away. I would highly recommend Azra as a therapist to anyone, particularly those with trauma and PTSD."

"Azra’s approach was warm and kind. What I admired most was that she was nonjudgmental, respectfully curious and honest. 

I was struggling to process a traumatic incident from a few years ago that was hindering me in my professional life and EMDR sessions with Azra allowed me to face the experience in a way I never thought I could. I would recommend Azra to anyone who is looking for a skilled therapist, particularly sisters who prefer someone with the same worldview."

"I recently sought therapy for anxiety and relationship issues and had the pleasure of working with Azra for a short period. Despite the brief duration, she made a significant impact on my life. Her guidance and compassionate approach instilled in me the confidence to move forward and address my challenges head on.

Azra has remarkable ability to create a safe and understanding environment, which was especially important to me given my cultural background. She provided practical strategies and support that resonated with me. She was also very patient listening to me, even when I felt like I was blabbing on, she was good at helping me to re-focus my thoughts and feelings.  I highly recommend Azra for anyone seeking relationship therapy, her professionalism, empathy and approach makes her an outstanding therapist"

"I came to Azra for therapy without anything major bothering me but as a way to dig a little bit into what I was going through and what I was feeling. I’d never had therapy before and wanted to see if there was anything bubbling below the surface that needed addressing. 

Azra is excellent at prompting thought processes that you wouldn’t have on your own but that are necessary. She is patient and non-judgemental, friendly, kind and easy to talk to. 

I would highly recommend Azra for whatever you’re going through."
