Hello, I'm Shanta
Qualified and experienced counsellor based in the West Midlands

Why I became a counsellor
I haven’t always been a counsellor; I’ve been a carer, a coach, and so much more.
And like you, I’ve walked my own path throughout many challenges, so I understand how overwhelming life can feel.
​
I’ve spent nearly a decade working with trauma, attachment struggles, and emotional storms.
Seeing how pain can weigh people down inspired me to do something about it.
​
I became a counsellor so that I could help people who feel unheard, unseen, and unsupported.
