Meet Nehad
I’m Nehad Shaaban, the founder of Sabeel Wellbeing & Counselling and a registered counsellor in Australia. I believe that seeking support is a courageous and deeply personal step, and that every individual deserves to be met with care, respect, and understanding.
My work is grounded in professional counselling practice and culturally informed by Islamic values, within the Australian context. At Sabeel, I offer a calm and safe space where students and parents feel understood without needing to explain their faith, values, or background.
I support students and parents together, recognizing that wellbeing grows through balance, family understanding, and consistent support. Through counselling and wellbeing services, my aim is to nurture emotional resilience, clarity, and personal growth gently and at your own pace.
My professional background spans counselling, wellbeing, education, and community leadership. I have worked as a Wellbeing Coordinator in a school in Canberra and as a Bilingual Health Educator supporting women and migrant communities. These roles have shaped my approach to culturally responsive support and community-based wellbeing.
At Sabeel Wellbeing, I believe true wellbeing is nurtured when young people are supported within the care, understanding, and consistency of their families and communities.
You don’t have to walk this journey alone.
