Hi, I'm Irfan
...and I offer a friendly, specialized counselling and psychotherapy service right here in Leeds. I provide a warm, supportive, and confidential space for you to explore any mental health complexities you're facing. Whether you're dealing with relationship stress, anxiety, or low mood, or navigating life as a Neurodivergent person like managing masking, emotional regulation, or social challenges, please know that I'm here to help. I am committed to supporting you through therapy, whether that is to:
- understand the feelings of being 'othered' due to one's identity
- work out what has gotten you stuck in a rut for so long
- or anything else that has to concerned and waking up at night
My practice offers a place where you will be recognised and heard, guiding you through your challenges with expertise.
Importance of Identity
The world is a place with endless possibilities and identity can take on many faces. What makes up identity? Why is it so important? And how does it present in therapy?
What is Trauma?
It takes courage and dedication to learn something new about your past. Trauma can take many forms from PTSD to complex trauma. What is the difference and what does that mean for us?
A Neurodivergent Brain
The beauty of neurodiversity is that there's no limit to what you can create. However, being different in a neurotypical world brings unique challenges we are left to work out for ourselves.
