About
SABEEHA ABBASSI
Thank you for considering The Healing Connect as your trusted partner in your journey towards healing and wellness. We understand that seeking counseling or psychotherapy can be challenging, which is why our online service offers a safe and convenient way to receive support from the comfort of your own home or office.
At The Healing Connect, we provide specialized counseling and psychotherapy services for adolescents, adults, and the elderly.
With a commitment to excellence and a deep understanding of the nuances of remote therapy, I have conducted well over 1500 online sessions, delivering personalized and effective interventions, helping clients overcome challenges and achieve their personal goals.
My educational background includes a Master's degree in Clinical Psychology from S.N.D.T. University in Mumbai, and a PGD in Rehabilitation Psychology. I am also registered with the Rehabilitation Council of India, which speaks to my commitment to providing ethical and evidence-based care.
In addition to my academic qualifications, I have completed psychotherapy training from a reputable University in Canada and I am a certified practitioner of Cognitive-Behavioral therapy (CBT), which is a widely recognized and effective therapeutic approach. I am also certified in Trauma-Informed coaching & counselling.
I employ an eclectic approach in my therapeutic practice, which means that I draw from a variety of therapeutic approaches and techniques to tailor my interventions to meet the unique needs of each individual client. I also make it a priority to stay informed about the latest research on human behavior and therapeutic techniques so that I can offer my clients the best possible care.
Throughout my academic journey, I was fortunate enough to have extensive internships in various settings, including hospital in-patient and outpatient settings, child and family guidance centres, and de-addiction centres, located in Mumbai, Bengaluru, and Goa's Institute of Psychiatry & Human Behavior.
Over the past decade, I have enjoyed a diverse career trajectory, working in various positions across India and abroad. I have worked as a professor of psychology, counselor, child psychologist, psychological specialist in a UK-based special needs institute, psychologist and psychotherapist in a renowned psychiatric clinic, and as a senior couple/marital therapist in a marriage counseling clinic.
I have also provided online therapy consultancy on a distinguished mental health platform, thereby expanding my reach and impact to individuals from diverse backgrounds.
These varied responsibilites have equipped me with the necessary skills and knowledge to confidently handle a wide range of psychological issues in clients of all ages.
In addition to my work as a therapist, I am passionate about public speaking and have won several accolades for my skills. I have conducted numerous workshops on various psychological themes for students, teachers, parents, and others. I also offer training to help individuals refine their oratory skills and overcome anxiety related to public speaking.
As a therapist, I strongly believe that the quality of the therapist-client relationship is the crucial foundation upon which the client embarks on the journey of self-discovery and healing.
I aim to provide a compassionate, transparent, and holistic approach to help you on your journey towards psychological, emotional & mental wellbeing.
And of course, many a time, we may have all the answers within, but perhaps, all we need then .... is a ‘healing connect’. So, join me on a journey of health and wellness and start taking care of what’s truly important- YOU!”

WHAT CLIENTS SAY
"We are extremely grateful to Ms. Sabeeha , who pulled my son out of depression in his crucial year of schooling. He would get extremely anxious two weeks before his exams and it would manifest into severe vomitting. Sabeeha was the only counsellor, my son was able to relate to and open up. She was able to understand his mental obstacles and stage fear. She instilled in him self confidence and steered him to look beyond studies and work on interpersonal skills. Sabeeha has a very pleasing personality coupled with dedication to her profession. I am sure she will heal many souls and make a positive difference in the lives of people."
SUJATA LODHA, BENGALURU.
" Sabeeha, I did not express myself well enough but you have to know how much our conversations and being heard and understood by you made a difference to me. Just like your name, you were the morning to me after the darkness I was thrown into. Thank you Sabeeha! I learnt things about me which were always within me that never could surface, you told me it was ok to love and be vulnerable, but being mindful is what matters and that I will carry with me forever. My gratitude list begins here with you, thank you once again!
And I hope you can touch and guide many more lives and bring in hope for people to look beyond the misery."
M.K, U.S.A.
" I reached out to Sabeeha for counselling on my failing marriage. She was available to me even on short notice to talk. She methodically guided me through working out a solution.
She is a patient listener and made me feel very comfortable while conveying my issues.
She has vast experience in counseling and is someone you can trust to work with you professionally. She has deep commitment to professional ethics and respects client confidentiality.
I would say, she is one of the best counselors I have sought help from and I recommend her counseling."
B.H, U.S.A
"I started therapy with Sabeeha when things got very difficult for me and I was lost and conflicted. She has been extremely patient and understanding and provided me objective suggestions. She helped me come to terms with myself and guided me to heal myself . Unpacking difficult emotions and getting rid of unhelpful behaviour and patterns was life-changing for me. Before I started therapy with Sabeeha I was so anxious. She helped me with lots of coping strategies and make sense of chaotic thoughts in my head. Over time I could feel the heaviness lift and feel alive again. I will always be grateful to her for helping me get through my rough patch and becoming a better version of myself".
K.D, BENGALURU.
"Sabeeha has been a great support in my therapy journey. I enjoyed my experience working with her. She approaches you from a position of empathy and understanding, which is a must for a therapist. It is effortless to open up to her to understand you. I did more than ten sessions with her, and each session kept on getting better. I would often look forward to speaking with her and share about my well- being. In all, I would recommend her to anyone who is feeling a little empty. Sabeeha is of great help."
VANDIT, DELHI.
"I met Sabeeha when I was going through some difficult emotions and circumstances. And she has been an anchor at the most lowest point of my life. Her patience, attentive hearing and practical exercises to navigate roadblocks makes her stand apart. She is a cheerleader, a sounding board and a compassionate person all wrapped in one. It’s been three years and my journey has been truly transformative with her. I feel so confident in myself all thanks to her. I am so glad I met her. If you are struggling and are looking for an anchor, Sabeeha is the one. I can’t thank her enough for being there".
