Each individual’s experience with mental health is both nuanced and unique to them, which is why applying general labels as a way to describe your difficulties can feel reductive. As a Counselling Psychologist, I integrate and tailor evidence-based psychological interventions, drawing knowledge from diverse schools of thought, to optimally create the most supportive approach to best suits your needs. Some of my main specialised interests include anxiety, depression, relationship issues, trauma, phobias, cultural and identity-related concerns and personal development.
I draw upon a mixture of psychodynamic, person-centred, cognitive behaviour therapy (CBT), talking therapy and other approaches to create a confidential, safe and accepting space that can support your individual needs as you explore your emotions. I practice both in English and Persian for those looking to commence therapy in their native language.
