About Sunah Akhtar
Meet Sunah, an experienced psychotherapist dedicated to helping clients achieve mental and emotional well-being. She offers a safe, confidential, and non-judgmental space where clients can explore their thoughts and feelings at their own pace, without fear of being judged.
Sunah's approach is person-centered, placing each client's unique experiences and needs at the heart of every session. She draws on evidence-based techniques such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and mindfulness to help clients understand their patterns, navigate life's challenges, and develop a healthier mindset.
She has supported clients through trauma and a wide range of emotional and mental health concerns, including during a four-year placement at WeStand and Renaissance Horizon. Her background in social entrepreneurial ventures has broadened her perspective, helping her connect with clients from diverse walks of life.
Deeply committed to her own personal growth, Sunah brings compassion, empathy, and acceptance into every conversation. She walks alongside each client with patience and care as they move toward greater clarity, resilience, and peace.

Sunah was so polite and encouraging, my shy daughter opened up to her so quickly, I was impressed. On top, my daughter told me later she had 'a good time' talking to Sunah. I appreciate that.

Very grateful to Shifa Therapy for accommodating me. The hours of the therapist I picked didn't work for me and Shifa Therapy helped me out. I'm so super grateful to have Muslim therapists available. Our session went well. Sunah gave me tips on how to manage the situation with my children. I'll be coming back for more. I found this very helpful. Thank you Shifa Therapy.
