More about Soban

Hello, I am Soban! If you’re feeling weighed down by anxiety, stress, or a deep sense of disconnection, you don’t have to go through it alone. Maybe you’ve been quietly carrying your emotions, feeling like you should be able to manage everything by yourself, or perhaps you're unsure how to even begin talking about what’s really going on. Whether the pressure comes from work, relationships, or the weight of cultural or personal expectations, it can feel overwhelming. At some point, we all reach a moment where something needs to change.

As a fully qualified psychotherapist registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), I offer a safe, welcoming environment where you can explore your challenges at your own pace.I use an integrative approach, which means I tailor therapy to suit your unique needs.

I’m committed to providing an anti-discriminatory and anti-oppressive space where everyone is welcomed and respected, regardless of background, identity, or experiences. I believe, as Irvin Yalom said, “it's the relationship that heals". Therapy is about being truly seen and understood, and together, we can begin your journey.

About online counseling

Affordable.: Pay a low flat fee.
Convenient.: Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.: There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
