My Approach

My approach to therapy is existential and humanistic. This approach emphasises each person's uniqueness being at the heart of the therapeutic relationship and supports clients in exploring living more meaningful lives.

My areas of clinical interest include navigating life's crossroads and transitions, time-limited therapy, understanding and living with anxiety and difficult emotions, complex, relational and developmental trauma, bereavement and complicated grief, actualising our freedom within limit-situations, and working with young adults and embodied therapeutic approaches.

About Me

I am a multicultural therapist and multilingual speaker of Arabic and English. I am passionate about supporting clients in navigating the ebbs and flows of life, gaining a deeper understanding of themselves and their lives, and providing them with the best possible standards of care.

I am the lead therapist at Insightful Awareness Limited, https://insightfulawareness.co.uk/, an online therapy service, and I volunteer with mental health charities in multiple countries. I offer therapy and counselling to individuals, including young adults, families, and groups, and I have extensive experience in clinical and academic environments.

Being born an expat, having lived in multiple countries, and starting my psychotherapy journey after many years in the business world gives me a foundation for relating to clients with diverse concerns and backgrounds.
