Shamila Sadiq - Registered MBACP Psychotherapist & Counsellor
​
I am a registered Psychotherapist & Counsellor based in Bedfordshire & Hertfordshire.

Hello
Clients
The relationship with you, the client, is central to my work.
​
For some people, the decision to seek counselling can be a difficult and daunting prospect. The best way to start is to simply arrange an introductory session, where we would explore what has brought you to therapy and discuss how we might work together.
It is important for you to feel comfortable in your choice of therapist.
There is no obligation to continue beyond the introductory session.
The counselling aspect of my work is tailored for individual adult clients, couples, young people & children.
I enjoy working very creatively with clients, based on this I offer a variety of different therapies.
I can help you with...
Abuse - Sexuality - Sexual intimacy - Addiction - Stress - Anger - Work issues - Anxiety -Assertiveness - Relationships - Bullying - Depression - Self-awareness - Self Harm - Eating Disorders - Self-esteem - Exam Stress - Guilt - Life Skills - Obsessive Compulsive Disorder   Personal Development   Phobias  Â
Who Am I?
I am a registered BACP Counsellor and Psychotherapist with experience of working with clients from many walks of life and motivations.
​
I am deeply committed to your healing, well-being and the development of you as a whole person: body, mind and spirit.
I’m an Integrative Psychotherapist, which broadly means that I’m trained in lots of different approaches and modalities.
I can also use a combination of art, music, and drama in our therapy as well as meditation techniques.
"I came to Shamila at a time of great difficulty, and felt safe, comfortable and held throughout my Counselling.
Shamila enabled me to explore difficult parts of my life that I had been unable to process.
She made me feel heard and understood whilst being empathic. Towards the end I felt so much more confident, and happier in my own skin.
I would definitely recommend Shamila as she works creatively, which I really enjoyed."

"We approached Shamila, and were really impressed by her professionalism.
Her ability to understand both of our personalities, and showing us both parts of one another that we were not aware of.
Shamila also did some walking therapy with us, which we found really beneficial, and then were able to continue this."
