A Guide to Our Services

Find answers to commonly asked questions about our products, services, and policies. If you don’t find the information you need, feel free to contact us and we will be happy to assist you.

What is child counseling?

The goal of child counselling, a type of therapy, is to assist kids and teenagers in managing behavioural, emotional, and mental health problems. It offers a secure and encouraging setting where kids may communicate their ideas and emotions and pick up coping mechanisms to deal with different obstacles.

When should I consider child counseling for my child?

Children who are struggling with a variety of challenges, including anxiety, depression, trauma, family disputes, difficulty in school, behavioural issues, problems with their peers, loss, and more, may find it helpful to get child counselling. Seeking professional counsel may be beneficial if you observe consistent changes in your child’s behaviour, emotions, or academic achievement.

What can I expect during a child counseling session?

During a child counselling session, a qualified therapist will involve your kid in age-appropriate activities such as play therapy, talk therapy, art therapy, or other approaches to help them explore and express their emotions. Your kid and the therapist will collaborate to set objectives and create coping mechanisms that meet their individual requirements.

How Meeting Matters is different from other setups?

Meeting Matters offers a peaceful setting that is family oriented. The main quality of Meeting Matters is that, here, you will find unconditional regard; warm acceptance without any fear of judgment. We have well-versed practitioners who will help to guide you towards the therapy that is most suitable for your specific needs, based on your specific issues and your ‘own therapy goals’.

I can’t afford your fees, can you offer a discount?

Yes, we can sometimes offer off-peak sessions at a lower cost based on your income., especially to students and senior citizens.

Where are you based?

At a peaceful location at 259 A, Street 53, F-10/4 Islamabad.

Can I contact the clinic outside of hours?

Yes, you can contact us 24/7 on this no: +92-311-1155601, for TEL: +92-51-4718378.

Is there a waiting room?

Yes. We have a facility in the waiting area.

Are Skype, Zoom, or WhatsApp sessions inferior to face-to-face treatment?

Not at all.

Can I speak to the therapist prior to booking?

Please let us know the questions you have and we can ask the therapist to answer your questions before the session.

My friend, family member, or loved one needs psychological help urgently; can you speak to them please, and force them to come in?

No, we can only offer appointments when the individual is willing to take sessions.

Is it important that my therapist has the same religious beliefs as me?

No, This is not necessary as all of our therapists can work with clients of all religions and will respect your religious beliefs. Our therapists have worked with clients of all different cultures and religious beliefs so it’s likely they will have a good understanding of your religion already. However, if there are parts of your religion they do not have knowledge of, and if it is relevant to your work, they will of course ask you questions to ensure get a better understanding.

Will I be involved in my child’s counseling sessions?

Involving parents is frequently a crucial part of child counselling. In order to give you support, information, and direction on how to best assist your kid outside of treatment, the therapist may meet with you alone or involve you in some or all of the sessions, depending on your child’s age and the severity of their concerns.

How do I know if my child is making progress in counseling?

Each child’s counselling progress might be unique and may not necessarily follow a straight line. The therapist for your kid will evaluate their development on a regular basis and report back to you. Over time, you could observe changes in your child’s behaviour, mood, relationships, or coping mechanisms, which would be a sign that counselling is working.

What if my child is resistant to counseling?

Children often have anxiety or resistance when it comes to going to counselling, particularly if they don’t know what to anticipate or think of treatment as a punishment. Engaging your kid in the decision-making process and having an honest discussion with them about the advantages of counselling might be beneficial. They can also feel less worried if they discover a therapist who specialises in treating kids and establishes a friendly, non-threatening atmosphere.

I would like to gain more information as I am unsure who to book in with, is this possible?

Yes, we can offer you a free 10 minutes telephone consultation. You may text us your request on WhatsApp and a psychologist will call you back as soon as possible.

How long will treatment take?

It depends on the individual; some treatments only take a few weeks, while other people attend for a year and a half if their difficulty is more deeply rooted. We decide this on the basis of the intensity of presenting problem/ issue.

Where are you based in the UK?

At 75 Whitchurch Rd, Cardiff CF14 3JP, UK.

I would like to change therapist, is this possible?

Yes, You can change your therapist anytime. In this case, you have to inform us through WhatsApp or Email at meetingmatters786@gmail.com.

Can I contact my therapist out of hours?

Yes, You can email any messages to meetingmatters786@gmail.com or call us at 03111155601 and we will pass on the message to your therapist. Each practitioner works differently, so it is best to check with them if they are okay to be contacted directly.

Sikander 098 Sikander 098 2024-01-18 Very understanding psychologist she helped me alot would recommend to everyone Hamza Abrar Hamza Abrar 2024-01-15 Great place, cooperative staff, and professional group of psychologists. It’s been quite a learning experience for me. Thanks to my psychologist, I have much better understanding of myself now. Aisha Hakim Aisha Hakim 2024-01-14 I am satisfied with their services and counselling they give is outstanding
.. High - 5 High – 5 2024-01-13 I had a very good experience with meeting matter. Recommended Maryam Hamid Maryam Hamid 2024-01-11 I had the best experience with meeting matters. Dr Mashal babar is a wonderful person. She understands exactly what you are going through and gives your the perfect solution for it. I highly recommend doctor mashal 👍 Areeba Aslam Areeba Aslam 2024-01-07 I approached this course with initial reservations, but upon completion, I am unequivocally convinced that the investment was worthwhile. The program is structured into two levels, namely LEVEL 1 and LEVEL 2, and I opted for the advanced Level 2 course. The instructional approach fundamentally transformed my understanding of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). The instructional team exhibited exemplary cooperation throughout, providing comprehensive explanations supported by illustrative examples.
The pedagogical methodology incorporated role-playing exercises, facilitating a nuanced comprehension of therapist-client dynamics. Disorders, as stipulated in the curriculum, were not merely theoretical concepts but were elucidated through practical applications and real-world scenarios. Practical exposure was extended through opportunities to engage with authentic clients, thereby bridging the transition from theoretical understanding to practical implementation.
This course transcends the perfunctory nature often associated with educational endeavors, offering a genuine and sophisticated platform for professional development. It is tailored for individuals seeking to augment their proficiency in psychology, particularly within the realm of CBT. I wholeheartedly recommend this course to those earnestly aspiring to make significant contributions to the field of psychology, as it redefines CBT from a basic therapeutic modality to an advanced and integral facet of psychological practice. Dr Kanwal Dr Kanwal 2024-01-03 “I really feel connected to my therapist miss mishaal babar and I feel that she has been such a benefit to my life. I have learned new coping skills and ways to help myself through issues.”
“I loved my experience and I have been able to work through much of my past issues with depression and anxiety and I am really thankful to miss aniqa she is such a nice and humble personality. Highly recommended🩶 Irshad Khan Irshad Khan 2023-12-31 The experience with meeting matters was truly commendable. The professionalism is of paramount importance and the environment is purely homely and client friendly. The administrative employees are also proficient and responsible besides being hospitable. Overall a very accomodative set up.
The therapist was very intelligent and supportive. Her methodical approach for problem solving is highly appreciated. She was humble, docile and listening to client with full concentration and correlating with the subject, which is highly appreciated. In the beginning, it appeared to me that the problem was not solveable but the interest and passion of the therapist made it resolved. She has been a key to success and revival. Within the short span of couple of months, I have been able to fight back with myself and regain control of my emotions, will power and determination, the personality strength and self esteem.. All this is attributable to the highly respectable therapist (no one else but Madam Iqra). My sincere prayers and best wishes for her and the complete team of the Meeting Matters. May they be blessed for great services to mankind. Google rating score: 4.8 of 5, based on 169 reviews
