About Sunah Akhtar

Sunah Akhtar is a compassionate Child & Adolescent Psychotherapist who specializes in supporting children, teenagers, and parents through emotional, behavioral, and developmental challenges. She creates a safe, engaging, and non-judgmental space where young individuals feel heard, understood, and supported.

Sunah works closely with children and adolescents facing concerns such as anxiety, ADHD, academic stress, social difficulties, emotional regulation, and self-esteem. Using age-appropriate, evidence-based approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and mindfulness techniques, she helps young clients build confidence, resilience, and healthier coping skills.

She also partners with parents, offering guidance to better understand their child’s emotional needs, improve communication, and foster stronger, more supportive family relationships. Her approach is warm, collaborative, and tailored to each child’s unique personality and experiences.

Sunah believes that early support can make a lasting difference, and she is committed to helping children feel safe, empowered, and equipped to navigate life with confidence.
