UKCP Psychotherapist · Therapeutic Coach
Therapeutic coaching and registered psychotherapy tailored to how you actually think, lead and live. In my practice, I blend clinical depth with strategic coaching for leaders, professionals and individuals.
Planned support, not crisis care
Years of experience
Different challenges call for different tools. In this practice, deep psychotherapeutic insight and structured coaching frameworks operate side by side.
In-depth exploration of root causes, emotional patterns, and healing
Structured development for leadership, clarity, and performance
Dual Accreditation: Most practitioners work either purely as psychotherapists or purely as coaches. Combining full UKCP clinical registration with EMCC coaching accreditation means your sessions never get stuck in theoretical circles or rush into surface-level action plans. We address the root cause and the forward strategy in the same confidential space.
Coaching alone often struggles when unhelpful behavioural patterns are driven by unconscious anxiety, past trauma, or neurodivergent burnout. Psychotherapy alone can sometimes lack the practical structure required for professional leadership and fast-paced careers. By integrating both disciplines, we ensure that deep personal insight translates directly into sustainable real-world change, backed by two of the UK’s leading professional regulatory bodies.
Maybe things look fine from the outside, but underneath you’re tired in a way sleep doesn’t fix. Maybe the same feeling keeps coming back and you’re not sure why. If any of that sounds like you, you’re in the right place, and you don’t need the right words ready before you reach out.
A calm, 20-minute conversation. No pressure, no obligation and no programme to sign up to. Just a chance to work out, together, whether we are the right fit.
Both draw on the same clinical training. The difference is the direction we face, inwards or forward.
For when life feels heavy and you need to understand why, not just cope. A safe, confidential space to explore the roots, using CBT, DBT, psychodynamic and systemic approaches.
Forward-focused, goal-oriented sessions that combine clinical insight with practical coaching tools. The psychological roots other coaches miss, with momentum you can keep.
Not sure which fits? The free discovery call helps you choose.
NHS-trained · King's College London
I’m Sabbir, a UKCP-registered psychotherapist and EMCC-accredited therapeutic coach. For more than twenty years I have worked in NHS mental health services and private practice, supporting people through trauma, anxiety, depression, BPD, addiction and neurodivergence
I trained at the Tavistock and Portman NHS Foundation Trust and completed CBT training at King’s College London, with further work in DBT and family and systemic therapy. That clinical depth sits underneath everything, whether we are doing therapy or coaching.
My own path shapes how I work. I came to London as a young immigrant and trained while raising a son newly diagnosed with autism. Holding hope when others doubt you is something I understand first-hand.
One named clinician throughout, week to week. Most clients notice meaningful change within 6 to 8 sessions.

If yours is not here, ask me on the discovery call. There is no such thing as a silly question.
Both draw on the same clinical training. Therapy faces inwards, to understand why things feel heavy. Coaching faces forward, towards a concrete goal. In your free discovery call I will help you choose, and we can move between the two as your needs change.
Yes. I am a UKCP-registered psychotherapist and an EMCC-accredited therapeutic coach, working to strict ethical standards with ongoing clinical supervision. That accountability is the duty of care an unregulated life coach simply cannot offer.
Therapy starts from £195 a session. Coaching begins with a £350 foundation session. The first discovery call is free, and there is no programme to lock into. You stay week to week.
Most clients notice meaningful change within 6 to 8 sessions. We will always work at the pace that is right for you, not to a fixed package.
I see clients in person at 96 Harley Street in the West End and at 335 City Road in Angel, and online across the UK and internationally.
Yes. More than twenty years of NHS clinical training means I can work safely with anxiety, depression, trauma, BPD, addiction and neurodivergence, not just everyday stress.
