About Olive Tree Counselling and Samina

Hello and welcome to Olive Tree Counselling. My name is Samina, and I am a psychotherapist based in the UK accredited by the BACP. I have 15 years of experience providing therapy, counselling and support to professionals who would like to achieve their goals and gain coping tools to manage day to day stressors .

I currently offer sessions to individuals remotely through Skype, Zoom or Google Meet, or alternatively in-person at my London practice in Hounslow. Sessions are built to function around schedules and start at 8.00am.

15 years of experience

Helped hundreds of clients

I have helped hundreds of clients to gain confidence, and strategic tools to maintain focus both in their personal and private lives.

I have run my own private practice for many years and have recently been providing services to the distinguished Nightingale Hospital. In addition, I have worked in the charity sector to improve outcomes for young people.

How It All Works

Assessment and Goal Setting Stage

This stage focuses on collaboratively exploring your concerns in greater depth, establishing goals, and formulating a treatment plan. The key components include:

In-depth Assessment: Engagement in discussions to delve deeper into your concerns, history, relationships, and other factors influencing your well-being.

Goal Identification: Together we will define specific and measurable goals for therapy. These goals should be aligned with your aspirations and serve as a guide for the treatment process.

Therapy Stage

This stage involves participating in therapy sessions and working towards achieving your goals. Key elements include:

Active Engagement: Attend sessions regularly, engage in the therapeutic process. Explore and process underlying emotions, traumas and unresolved issues contributing to your difficulties. I will provide guidance based on our agreed-upon treatment plan.

Skill Development: Learn and practice coping strategies, self-reflection techniques, and other tools provided by myself to address your concerns and work towards positive change.

 

 Closure and Post-Therapy Stage

This final stage focuses on consolidating progress, preparing for therapy termination, and ensuring continued growth and well-being, through:

Closure Planning: Collaboratively discuss and plan the closure of therapy. Address any remaining goals or concerns and establish a timeline for ending regular sessions.

Transitioning and Closure: Gradually decrease the frequency of therapy sessions while maintaining progress and integrating learned skills into your daily life. Use this time to reflect on the therapeutic journey, acknowledge achievements, and address any remaining questions or concerns.

Post-Therapy Support: Depending on your needs, you may arrange for periodic follow-up sessions.
