Hello, I’m Shabnam.

I’m a UKCP-Registered Neurodiverse Psychotherapist trained in Transactional Analysis which has its roots in Psychodynamic and Humanistic psychotherapy, and share similarities with Schema therapy. Transactional Analysis (TA) examines an individual's personality and how this has been shaped by experiences. This means I’m able to help clients understand the root of their issues and therefore make lasting changes.

I incorporate various models, techniques, and tools to teach clients how to become aware of their patterns of behaviour, thoughts, and feelings. I help individuals and couples to become aware of how they communicate to resolve conflict and misunderstandings. I also help my clients to set boundaries that promote living authentically, build their self-esteem, avoid burnout, and help them to become clear about their values and belief systems.


I work with clients presenting with complex issues such as Trauma, Depression, Anxiety, ADHD, (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder) Autism, BPD (Borderline Personality Disorder), Bereavement, and Loss.

I have a particular interest in working with clients with neurodiversity, and have extensive clinical experience working with university students and professionals.

Prior to training as a psychotherapist, I was a Lecturer in Further and Higher Education. Alongside my clinical work, I also run Mental Health consultation workshops for organisations and group therapy sessions.
