Had a really positive experience with Fariha in Whittlesea. Her CBT approach helped me understand my anxious thoughts and I left each session feeling calmer and more in control. The tee-rest vibe in Shop 3 is welcoming and easy to get to from suburbia like Epping and South Morang.
Fariha listened without judgment and offered practical stress-management techniques I could actually use day-to-day. The network of support group meetings she runs has been a great extra resource for staying accountable. Highly recommended for anyone in the Whittlesea area.
I appreciated that she spoke in clear terms and explained CBT concepts in a way that made sense. My sessions in Church Street felt private and respectful, and I’m noticing real improvements in my mood.
Gold-standard psychologist. The behavioral therapy techniques Fariha introduced are simple to practice and have helped me manage work stress while juggling family life around Norwood and Whittlesea.
Grateful for the warm, non-judgmental approach. Fariha offered language options and checked in on my comfort level throughout the sessions. I’ve become more consistent with my coping strategies.
Relieved to find a psychologist who genuinely listens. The cognitive-behavioral therapy work we did has helped me reframe negative thoughts, and I’ve started feeling more hopeful about the future.
The counseling sessions at Shop 3 are convenient for me living around Bundoora. Fariha provides practical tips and keeps notes so I can track my progress between visits. I’d definitely recommend.
