Counsellor/Therapist, Ummayah Sidhu | BACP Accredited Psychotherapist | Identity & Heritage Specialist
THE WHOLE STORY APPROACH: I lead with a relational way of working that ensures every part of your journey from your heritage and faith to your professional life is seen and valued.
I am a BACP Accredited Psychotherapist and Counsellor with over 10 years of experience, shaped by a life lived across cultures. As a British-born woman and a Muslim revert, my practice is deeply rooted in understanding the delicate balance of identity, belonging, and faith.
Having lived and worked in Qatar for six years within a diverse international community, I bring a global, nuanced perspective to my relational work. I understand the unique beauty and the complex tensions of mixed-heritage families and the journey of navigating different worldviews while staying true to one's values.
My approach is warm, professional, and spiritually sensitive. Whether you are navigating the pressures of leadership and burnout or exploring personal questions of heritage and identity, I provide a space where all parts of you your faith, your history, and your professional ambitions are held with respect.

John Castleford
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, MIAEB, FRAI
I have been a psychotherapist and mental health coach for many years, and I now specialise almost exclusively in helping those with, or recovering from, cancer. It's a debilitating disease that I have experienced twice, so I know at first hand the effect it can have on the quality of life and particularly how it makes us feel -- either as a reaction to being diagnosed and undergoing treatment, or when in remission as a survivor, the fear of it recurring.
I can also help family members and close friends, who often feel helpless bystanders.
We have all experienced our feelings dominating what we think, and what we do. But heightened emotions stop us thinking clearly. And that can often lead us to feel out of control.
Unlike many therapists, I do not believe that the adverse effect on our thinking and our behaviour from a life-changing event like cancer is a dysfunctional flaw or a disorder that needs treatment. Typical reactions to cancer --anxiety, fear, stress and low mood -- are part of life. Why cancer often triggers is a range of reactions: shock and denial; Shock and denial that it is happening. Coping with fear, anxiety and panic can be difficult, particularly as mood swings may frequently change. Feelings of sadness may range from low moof to extreme depression.
Ultimately we know, at a rational level, that we are mortal. But we also have we also have a very strong instinct to survive. We want to live. And enjoy life. Cancer is not the death sentence it once was.
I can help you come to terms with the reality as well as the inevitable perceptions that may influence you. And I can help you to flourish, rather than just cope and survive.

Julie Kuhn - Counsellor & Supervisor
Counsellor/Therapist, Therapeutic Arts Counsellor BACP (Accred)
I’m here to help people like you gain the benefits of counselling. It’s not about fixing you. It’s about figuring out where you are and creating change so that you can stop second guessing yourself.
I specialise in working with quietly capable women to step away from guilt, reconnecting with who they are beneath the expectations, claim back their time and to feel confident and connected through therapy that is collaborative, compassionate and sometimes creative.

Samantha Coleman
Therapist, MBACP Prof Dip
I work in a warm, informal, and deeply human way. I see you as the expert on yourself, and my role is to help you make sense of what lies beneath the surface: your patterns, relationships, wounds, pressures, and life experiences. I bring together genuine warmth, honest connection, deep pattern recognition, and a structured approach, so that therapy feels both easy to step into and meaningful in what it uncovers. I believe the best therapy happens when you can be real, speak freely, and feel understood without having to perform or pretend.
