About Me
Hi, I’m Michelle Mushtaq, the founder of The Healing Journey.
I know firsthand how overwhelming anxiety and depression can feel — because I’ve walked that path myself. My own struggles and healing inspired me to dedicate my life to supporting others. I believe therapy should feel safe, compassionate, and tailored to you — not clinical or cold.
In our sessions, you’ll find a non-judgemental space where you can be heard, understood, and guided with empathy. I combine my personal insight with professional training to help clients gently untangle overthinking, heal from trauma, and find resilience in the middle of life’s challenges.
