Selena Zafar invites people to make space for their own wellbeing and supports each person on a unique path toward self discovery. She practices from the core principles of Person-Centred Therapy developed by Carl Rogers, valuing the belief that each individual is the expert on their own life and offering a warm, empathic environment where thoughts and feelings can be explored without judgement.

In session, Selena works collaboratively with clients to set counselling goals and to shape the pace and direction of the work according to individual needs. Her private practice offers a supportive setting free from external pressures or expectations, and she treats clients privacy with deep respect. Information shared in sessions is kept confidential except where disclosure is required because someone is at risk of harm or when she is legally obliged to share information.

Selena trained to be a counsellor after experiencing therapy herself, and she is a recent Master of Science (MSc) graduate which helps her relate to student peers. As a biracial counsellor from multiple minority groups and someone raised in a multi-faith, multi-cultural family, she brings personal insight to identity and cultural concerns and specialises in issues around identity, cultural challenges, bereavement, race, and sports psychology.

She works with a wide range of difficulties including stress, anxiety, relationship and family issues, grief, self-esteem, addictions, LGBT-related concerns, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related issues, eating difficulties, parenting challenges, anger, career questions, depression, coping with life changes, coaching, compassion fatigue, and ADHD. Selena is a therapist of colour, is female, identifies as gay, and practices in the United Kingdom. She has three years of professional experience.
