About Muhammad Qamar

Counselling Therapist and Founder of MQ Counselling Services

I provide compassionate, culturally responsive counselling for teenagers, adults, and families experiencing emotional, relational, and life challenges.

My goal is to create a safe, respectful, and confidential environment where you can speak openly, better understand your experiences, and develop practical strategies for meaningful change.

Counselling is personalized to your needs, goals, cultural background, and lived experience.

PROFESSIONAL BACKGROUND

Experience Grounded in Compassion and Understanding

I hold a Master of Science in Counselling Psychology and a Bachelor of Science in Counselling Psychology. I have more than four years of experience supporting individuals from diverse cultural and personal backgrounds.

My experience includes working with concerns related to anxiety, depression, trauma, post-traumatic stress, grief and loss, emotional regulation, relationship difficulties, displacement, motor vehicle accidents, and significant life transitions.

I also have experience supporting refugees and newcomers as they navigate settlement, cultural adjustment, family pressures, and the emotional impact of starting a new life in Canada.

A MESSAGE FROM MUHAMMAD

“Reaching out for counselling can feel difficult. You do not need to have everything figured out before beginning. We can start with where you are, explore what you are experiencing, and work together toward the changes that are meaningful to you.”
