Are you feeling anxious, depressed, alone, isolated or struggling with your mental health? You don’t need to struggle on your own. It's OK to ask for help.
Sometimes we can't understand why we feel the way we do and keep questioning ourselves to find answers. Other times we know why we feel this way but are unable to move forward and find the source of our problems on our own. We may feel anxious or embarrassed about asking for help and taking that first step towards making that all important call. We want to feel better about understanding our confusion, depression and anger. We also wonder why we are unable to cope with our emotions. Most of us end up putting more pressure on ourselves as that critical voice is telling us we should be more stronger mentally and deal with our problems and issues on our own. It's not always possible to do this on our own. It's okay to ask for help. Asking for help takes courage and it's not a sign of weakness. It’s okay to not be okay but believe in yourself even when others don’t.
Are you asking all the above questions? If the answer is yes, then you may benefit from talking to a counsellor/therapist. You can email me at Kantacounselling@yahoo.co.uk or by telephone on 07561 368 389.
My aim is to create a safe and supportive space for you in which you can talk and explore your feelings, anger, frustration, beliefs and thoughts without anyone judging you or telling you what to do.
I offer counselling/therapy sessions in English and Gujarati.
I am currently working within an Education setting with students and young people over the age of 16 and over who have experienced abuse, depression, anxiety, OCD, ADHD, mental health difficulties, poverty and more....
Whilst working for MIND (the mental health charity), a Women's Centre , Place2Be (a children’s mental health charity) and other agencies, I have gained experience in working with clients from a great diversity of backgrounds.

I value, respect and accept each and every clients regardless of their cultural background.
I have worked as a counsellor/therapist for over sixteen years for agencies specialising in areas such as: long term mental health problems, struggle with paranoia, severe anxiety, stress, panic attacks, couples counselling (or relationship therapy), low self-esteem, compulsive behaviours, bereavement, eating disorders, childhood trauma, domestic abuse, depression, self harm, anger management, cultural issues, cross cultural relationships, living with an extended family, supporting carers, relationship between young adults and their parents, dealing with exam anxiety, university transition, being bullied in school, college, university or work/home, coping with separation and divorce, letting go of past, affairs, betrayals and more....
Seeking counselling/therapy support for some of us may be very challenging and daunting. I am able to offer Asian counselling and am also a Gujarati counsellor.
Comments from my current and former clients:
"Kanta has helped me get through a really tough situation and I can’t thank her enough for all of her support. Her kindness, insight, and patience has helped me grow into a stronger and more positive person. I started my sessions with her at a time where it felt like the world was ending and I was alone, but she had zero judgment and was a great listener which really helped me through. I never thought I would come this far in such a short amount of time! "
"I was nervous to start therapy again, but my mind has been put at ease and I’m really glad I reached out for help. I have learnt so much about myself and do not feel so alone with my problems. Kanta is kind patient and understanding and has made starting therapy a smooth process. Thank you for all of your help!"
"I decided I needed to see a counsellor when my anxiety and panic attacks started to become more frequent and started to affect my everyday day life. I was starting to hate everything around me and had lost my inner happiness. I am so happy that I came across Kantas' profile who was able to understand and relate to many of my anxieties. She was very patient and honest and never pushed me out of my comfort zone. I found it easy to talk to her and she helped me to control these anxieties as well as build on my confidence and self respect. Now many of my relationships around me are blossoming and I am able to slowly gain back control of my mind and my life. Thank you Kanta for your time and advice, something that will always be invaluable to me."
