Sadaf Solangi

I am happy to see clients online on Zoom from January 2026.

I am launching my face to face practice in E18 area from February 2026.

I am available on daytimes and most evenings of the three  consecutive Mondays in the month- please ask for further information.

I am available on Wednesday evenings 6pm to 8pm and Saturday afternoons 2pm to 5pm.

I can do face to face and Zoom.

As a qualified counsellor I am excited about starting my practice as you can see in the previous section.

If you are an online client you are likely to be seen on Wednesday evenings.

In the scenario that you wish to be seen Face to Face or In Person then I will be hiring rooms in Counselling centres in East London  mainly on Mondays and Saturdays.

I am an integrative counsellor but I focus mainly on the humanistic Person-centred counselling modality.

I have had training in Psychodynamic, Gestalt, Transactional Analysis and Cognitive Behavioural theories/ therapies but enabling people to actualise their potential and flourish from the person-centred lens is my true calling.

Furthermore, I am keen to go deeper into ACT Acceptance and Commitment Therapy in 2026 and REBT Rational Emotive Behaviour Therapy in 2027.

In my daytime work in the NHS I do Psychospiritual work in both acute and mental health settings.

I intend to work mainly with women.

Both Face to Face and Online options are available.

I will be attending  Supervision and I am in Personal Therapy.

I follow the Ethical Framework of the BACP and I am insured and fit to practice.

I feel that Person-centred Approach is my strongest gift but working integratively and pluralistically is something that will emerge as time progresses.

I can help with:

- Mild to moderate mental health issues

- Life transitions and adjustments

- Relationship difficulties

- Self esteem and identity

- General wellbeing and support.

I do not feel equipped to deal with themes and presenting problems beyond my limit of proficiency- so I will signpost you to other specialists as and when needed.

One of those areas which I do not cover are sexual dysfunction or sexual issues or Sexual Orientation.

I am not a children's counsellor either as I am not trained in that area.

I cannot help women with extreme/severe mental health issues such as those who are actively "psychotic".

If after six consecutive weekly sessions, you show considerable improvement in your challenges I will review and re-contract keeping in mind working ethically and fairly.

I require an upfront payment online (by cheque in rare cases such as very long-term clients) to secure the room slot and I have a strict 48 hour cancellation policy.  For online clients I also need an online payment before the session begins.

If we do not feel we are a right fit or match in the therapeutic space we will be honest and congruent and explore this therapeutically before we think of further steps.

1) In the first instance send me a text on my mobile and I will email you an short enquiry form (pre-assessment questionnaire).

2) You will then be invited to a free 15 minute introductory telephone call.

3) If the introductory call goes well I will do an assessment (first session).

This first session (preferably face to face) costs £59.99 and it lasts up to an hour. 

This is a generous price as I will need to book and pay for the room for two hours if we need an extra 10 minutes.

The face to face assessment- we will need to go through a lengthy history assessment but there will be ample time for counselling as well.

It is important for me to see if we are a good enough match for one another.

We can also decide if we can have Hybrid counselling- a mixture of face to face, online and telephone.

I have not established whether I will be doing discounted block bookings or home visits yet.
