Dr Sonia Ahmed

Dr Sonia Ahmed Hi I am a Counselling Psychologist based in Sunderland. Availabe in person & online. www.serenepsychology.com Welcome to Serene Psychology.

I am the founder of Serene Psychology, and have a small team that can offer 1-1 therapy across the lifespan, couples therapy, & family therapy. I’m a Counselling Psychologist and EMDR Therapist with over 10 years of experience in mental health, specializing in trauma & PTSD, with a particular focus on domestic abuse, and honour-based abuse. My mission is to help you reclaim your voice, find your freedom, and heal from the effects of trauma in a safe and supportive environment. Through 1:1 therapy sessions, I use proven techniques like EMDR and compassionate, tailored approaches to guide you on your journey toward recovery and inner calm. Beyond therapy, I also develop and deliver training for professionals and survivors of domestic abuse. These training programs are designed to build awareness, enhance understanding, and provide tools for resilience and recovery. Whether you're looking for personal growth or professional development, my programs aim to make a meaningful impact. I use social media to share empowering and educational content about domestic abuse, offering a supportive space for survivors, and raising awareness about this critical issue. If you’re ready to take the next step toward healing or would like to learn more about my training programs, I’m here to help. Contact me today to book a therapy session or explore opportunities to work together. You don’t have to face this alone – together, we can work toward a brighter, more peaceful future. I offer online and face to face therapy sessions.

Nationwide Emergency Alert Test — Sunday 7th September, 3pm

The UK’s new emergency alert system will send a loud siren, message, and vibration to every compatible phone even on silent. Survivors of abuse with hidden phones could be put at risk if the device is discovered.

You can opt out in your phone’s settings to protect your safety:

- iPhone: Search “Emergency Alerts” in settings → Turn off Severe & Emergency alerts
- Android: Search “Emergency Alerts” in settings → Turn off Severe & Emergency alerts (and other threat categories if listed)
