About Rukhsana Khan Counselling
Professionally qualified & highly experienced

Welcome to Rukhsana Khan Counselling, I am a professionally qualified and highly experienced Integrative Counsellor and Psychotherapist, which means that I use a combination of theories to help you. Working with couples, individuals, children and adolescents, I provide long term and short term therapy.

Counselling
I offer a safe, warm and confidential space for you to talk openly about any issues which may be causing you distress or concern in your life. It is not unusual for people to feel depressed or anxious at some stage in their lives. Sometimes this can be related to a particular life event, other times it can seem to come from nowhere. These periods can feel never-ending and intense and often result in feeling isolated, stuck and struggling to make sense of things.
Counselling and Psychotherapy can help you develop awareness and understanding of yourself and life choices, helping you to feel more at ease in your world. Having the space to be able to reflect on your life in therapy creates both a physical and emotional space for you and this can be very beneficial, helping you find a way forward through issues of anxiety, stress, depression, relationship issues, low self esteem, along with many other emotional difficulties.

Couples Counselling
Our closest relationships can provide us with some of life’s greatest happiness and satisfaction…..until they start to breakdown. Couples therapy is designed to create happier and healthier relationships based on trust, respect and mutual understanding.
While all relationships can sometimes suffer under increasing pressure of everyday life, ongoing and unaddressed stresses can leave you feeling misunderstood, angry and resentful. External pressures such as work related issues and family issues can add to those challenges. Difficulties in your relationship such as not being able to trust each other and breakdown of communication can leave you constantly bickering and arguing without resolution.
Couples therapy is an effective solution focused talking therapy for those experiencing relational difficulties. I work to support you as a couple to identify patterns and modes of communication and behaviors so you can both take responsibility for your own choices and actions and work out the best way for you to resolve your complications and move forward. I aim to provide a safe environment where you can talk about your relationship issues so that you can improve your communication and gain confidence in self-expression as a couple.

Counselling for Children and Adolescents
I work with children and adolescents aged 7-17, who may be experiencing emotional, behavioral and communication difficulties associated with issues such as bullying, low self esteem, anxiety, trauma, parental separation etc.
I use talking and play therapy to help them to express themselves and work through worries and concerns. This can help to build self esteem, improve communication and develop relationships and trust.
