My Story

Hi I am Dr Amirah and having engaged in my own therapy for many years I have a unique experience of being in both seats. I know how difficult it can be to take the first steps, and I believe with my authenticity, warmth, expertise and empathy, you will not be alone on what can sometimes feel like a daunting journey.

I have over 15 years of experience training and working in the UK, working with people across the lifespan; children, young people, adults and families. My experience has included working in the charity sector, social care and working across the National Health Service in community and outpatient therapeutic services. What this means is, I have expertise working with adults with complex and enduring mental health problems, and this includes supporting people with a history of complex trauma, refugees, adults with high functioning anxiety, relationship difficulties and eating disorders. 

I provide an online therapeutic and training service. In addition to therapy, I provide supervision to trainee and qualified therapists, and I often support healthcare professionals and businesses with training on topics such as mental health, burnout, self-care, intersectionality and working with marginalised groups.
