I work with English, Arabic and French-speaking clients in private and in charitable organisations.
Feeling, anxious, confused, overwhelmed or stuck? Struggling with stress and burnout? There is no need to go it alone. Choosing to face your challenges takes real courage and you have taken that step. You’re reaching out not because you’re weak but because you’re human. You'll be offered a safe, confidential, and non-judgemental space where you can explore your feelings and thoughts and get a better understanding of yourself. Whether you're experiencing the long-lasting effects of trauma or struggling with life-changing events, we'll work together to help you process those experiences and feel safe and secure within yourself.

I speak Arabic conversationally (Iraqi dialect) and can offer mix of Arabic and English within the session.
I'm a trainee Integrative Arts Psychotherapist in the final stages of my training accredited by the UK Council for Psychotherapists (UKCP), and the Health and Care Professional Council (HCPC), offering in-person talking and art therapy. I offer a warm, non-judgmental and confidential space to explore your emotions, thoughts or behavioural patterns. I invite you to come as you are, as all parts of yourself are welcome in the therapy room. I see the therapy space as a place to rehearse new ways of expressing yourself, relating to others, and a place to re-imagine new possibilities for yourself and how you wish to live your life.

Shame dies when stories are shared in safe spaces. Each of us has our own unique story, and over my 7 years, I’ve had the privilege of hearing stories from people of all ages and backgrounds. The heart of my therapy is creating that safe space for you to share your story. Together, we can explore how you've arrived at this point in your life and what may be holding you back from moving forward. If you feel overwhelmed by anxiety, stress, or past trauma, or find it hard to maintain relationships or confidence, I offer a supportive, non-judgmental environment to help you navigate life’s challenges and find clarity.

Lead Therapist for Tasfiyah Therapy, merging Clinical Science w/ Islamic Theology, Jurisprudence & Spiritual Wellbeing. Struggling to reconcile mental health with faith? You may be feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, trapped in a cycle of intrusive thoughts (OCD), or facing conflict in your marriage. Often, Muslims feel they must choose between a "clinical" approach that ignores the soul, or a "spiritual" approach that ignores the science. You do not have to choose. Through Tasfiyah Therapy, we bridge that gap. We help those who need evidence-based clinical care that respects their Theology, Jurisprudence, and Spiritual Wellbeing.

At the heart of my approach to therapy is a belief that the answer to life’s dilemmas is not ‘out there’ but within us. When we start to love and accept ourselves as we are, we can begin to feel more empathy for others, our relationships will improve, and we will find it easier to have the sort of life we want. It is my view that most people could benefit from therapy. It is a space where you can speak your mind without fear of upsetting friends or family. It is a chance to talk over problems with someone who is not going to be judgemental or tell you what to do. It is a place where you can consider your options and make choices.
