This works for you if

Whether you are holding it together or starting to fall apart, you are tired of feeling this way…

…and you have been tired for a while now

  • Your mind does not stop. Not at dinner, not with your kids, not at 2 am. You can barely remember the last time you felt genuinely at rest.
  • You hit the goal. You moved the goalpost. Satisfaction keeps slipping through your fingers, and you are not quite sure you are allowed to say that out loud.
  • You give everything at work and come home with nothing left. The guilt makes it worse, and somehow the cycle just keeps going.
  • You and your partner are functional. You co-managed life well. But somewhere along the way you stopped really reaching each other, and you are not sure when that happened.
  • You are a devoted mother who has quietly lost sight of herself in the process, and you are not sure who to tell.

This work is built for people like you. Not despite your success. Because of what it quietly costs.

If any of that felt familiar, you are in the right place. This is warm, effective and confidential therapy for high achievers who are ready to do something more than cope.

For organisations

Your people are high achieving too.
They need this work as well.

02

Real-world

Over two decades of mental health training combined with personal corporate and family life experience. I know the world you are working in because I lived it.

03

Focus on roots and patterns, not just symptoms

Works at the root of emotional and relational patterns to create new ways of being that lead to concrete life differences. Not insight. Actual change.

04

Built for real life, not just the therapy room

Longer sessions and intensives for deeper, focused work. A practical, structured approach that supports change beyond the session and holds when you leave.

Before you reach out, hear it from me directly.

Who I work with, how I work, and why this matters to me.

Client stories

What changes when the work goes deep

  • Sitting with Shabnam has truly been life-changing. When I first came to her, I had a specific problem in mind—something I thought could be “fixed” with a quick, simple solution. What I discovered instead was so much more.

    Through her thoughtful guidance and unique modalities, Shabnam helped me see the value of approaching life holistically. I’ve grown into a better leader at work, a more present and grounded person at home, and a fuller version of myself in every area of life. She listens with an open heart—without judgment, always with compassion—and creates a space where real change feels not just possible, but inevitable.

  • Within just 20 minutes of therapy, she helped me uncover a core issue from my childhood that I believe was a major root cause of my insecurities and anxieties. This newfound understanding lifted a huge weight off my shoulders and gave me a much more hopeful perspective.

    Andrea Gunawan
  • I started working with Shabs to overcome my severe fear of flying. Compared to how I felt before meeting her, I now feel much better. We're also working on other areas to help me become stronger and achieve more in my career. My friends and family have noticed the improvements I've made so far!

    Lygia
  • Shabnam has transformed my perspective on life and helped elevate my thinking to new heights. As an entrepreneur, developing the right mindset is crucial to thrive, and throughout this journey, she thoroughly equipped me with the tools and insights I needed.

    Ken Khalid
  • I had the pleasure of sitting with Shabnam on two separate occasions, once individually and once with my partner. In both sessions, Shabnam asked the right questions that led to breakthroughs and a series of realizations, which have been very beneficial to my mental health and the health of my relationship. I would highly recommend her, 10/10.

About

Shabnam Lee

I’m a licensed counsellor specialising in IFS and RLT, based in Jakarta. Before this work, I spent years in management consulting, holding a career, a marriage, and a family together while quietly wondering why something still felt missing. That experience is part of why I do what I do now. I know this work because it changed me. I stay in it because of what I see it do for others.

Ready when you are

You read this far.
That means something.

A free 15-minute conversation. No commitment, no pressure. Just enough time to feel if this feels right.
