Suzanne Helmy, MSc, BSc, MBPsS

My passion for understanding how people think and grow led me to study mental health. I earned my Master of Science in Psychology from the University of Essex and my Bachelor of Science in Early Childhood Studies from the University of East Anglia in the UK. This foundation gives me a strong understanding of mental health across all ages.

• Comprehensive Training. My training covers a broad range of mental health areas, including mood disorders, schizophrenia, personality disorders, and addiction.
• Cultural Understanding. My Arab-Western background helps me connect with people from diverse cultural backgrounds. My familiarity with both British and Egyptian cultures allows me to create a comfortable and understanding therapeutic space.
• Professional Standards. As a member of the British Psychological Society (BPS), I adhere to strict confidentiality standards. Your sessions are completely private and confidential.

During my time in the UAE, I've focused on helping adolescents and university students navigate stress, identity issues, and relationship challenges. I also have experience in couples counseling and group therapy.

My Approach

I utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) techniques in my counseling practice. CBT is a proven, practical approach that helps you identify and change negative thought patterns and behaviors that contribute to your challenges. It's collaborative and empowering, providing you with the tools you need to manage anxiety, overcome depression, improve relationships, and reach your personal goals. I tailor each session to your specific needs and goals.
