My journey has taken me from Cambridge-educated engineer to charity founder to integrative psychotherapist—and at the heart of it all has been a search for authenticity, meaning, and inner freedom.

As a first-generation British Asian, I often felt caught between cultures. That early sense of being split shaped my path—from a career in finance across the UK, Asia, and Africa, to founding Educating the Children (ETC), a charity that has empowered over 5,000 young women in East Africa to break free from cycles of poverty, FGM, and early marriage. It was about offering others the choice and freedom to define their own life.

That same theme runs through my therapeutic work today: supporting clients to break through internalised ‘shoulds’—from family, culture, or society—and reconnect with their own voice, their own worth, and ultimately, their own truth.

Over time, I’ve come to understand that outer success, although important, doesn’t alone always bring inner peace. For years I tried to resolve that sense of disconnection through achievement and service. But it wasn’t until I turned inward—toward the unconscious patterns I’d been carrying—which are common and chronic in today’s modern world - that real healing began. That journey brought me to Psychosynthesis and transpersonal psychotherapy, and eventually to the work I now offer.

I believe therapy is not about fixing, but about freeing—a sacred process of becoming more fully ourselves. My role is to walk beside you as you move from survival to self-leadership, from fragmentation to integration, and toward a life that feels aligned, meaningful, and real.
