I am an Accredited Psychological Therapist with over twelve years of experience supporting adults, young people, and families. My work is trauma-informed and culturally sensitive, with a focus on helping people experiencing anxiety, trauma, loss, and life transitions. I aim to create a safe and non-judgmental space where clients feel heard and understood. I work collaboratively at a pace that feels comfortable, helping clients build emotional understanding, resilience, and practical coping strategies. I offer therapy in both English and Farsi (Persian) and welcome clients from diverse cultural backgrounds.
I offer trauma-informed therapy for adults and young people experiencing anxiety, trauma, loss, and life transitions. My approach is warm, collaborative, and culturally sensitive, helping clients build emotional understanding, strengthen coping skills, and feel safer in themselves and their relationships. Therapy is available in English and Farsi.
Starting therapy can feel difficult, especially when you have been carrying things on your own for a long time. I aim to offer a safe, respectful, and non-judgmental space where you can feel heard and understood. Together, we can explore what feels overwhelming at your pace and work towards greater clarity, stability, and emotional wellbeing.
