Iqubal Birdi

Coming for counselling may be a big step for you and may feel daunting - but it is a very positive thing to do in making changes and improving the quality of your life. I ensure that the client and I form a relationship of mutual trust, safety and non-judgemental, positive regard; working together to find the best solutions for the client's well-being. The way I work is integrative and eclectic, using whichever counselling approach/es work best for the client.

I have experience of counselling,supervision, training and management in NHS-commissioned voluntary sector agencies as well as more strategic, programme and project management in the NHS. I have experience in teaching counselling skills within further/adult education. I have recently written and published a self-help book relating to counselling, psychology and the human condition, which you can see at: www.iqubalbirdi.com
