Counselling & Coaching Services for the Shia Muslim Community

Integrating Quranic teachings & the wisdom of the Holy Household with evidence-based interventions & coaching techniques to help you through your most difficult times

  • You may be a Shia Muslim seeking support through spiritual, emotional, or psychological distress, feeling disconnected from Allah (swt), the Ahlulbayt (as), or from others.

  • You might be struggling with depression, anxiety, stress, low confidence, or feeling stuck, judged, guilty, ashamed, or unworthy because of past or present experiences.

  • You may have tried counselling before but found it lacked Shia‑aligned spiritual teachings or felt dismissed by comments suggesting your struggles mean weak faith.

  • You could be facing relationship conflicts or finding it hard to take intentional steps toward the life you want.

If the answer to any of the above is YES,
Insha'Allah, I can help.

"I sought counselling to get a greater insight with my inner thoughts. Fiza showed exemplary counselling skills to help me navigate my journey. She empathised and supported me along the way, listening and understanding how I was feeling. I cant thank Fiza enough. What she gave me was inner power and control of my emotions.

I’ve noticed a big imporvement in my ability to manage stress and understand my emotions better. Her patience and understanding have made a huge difference. I feel much more optimistic about the future”

"I needed some help with past trauma and a toxic relationship which was affecting my life now and how I responded to triggers. Fiza helped me understand things about myself I never knew and how to see things differently. I can deal with triggers in a more healthy way. I am so grateful to Fiza for helping me through this and I would definitely recommend her to anyone who needs counselling”
