ABOUT ME/BIO

I am a DHA licensed Clinical Psychologist and I work with people of all ages, from children and adolescents to adults and families. I offer a safe, compassionate, and collaborative space where each person is helped to feel understood and empowered in their care. I completed my Doctorate in Clinical Psychology at the University of East Anglia and hold an Honours Bachelor’s degree in Psychology and Cognitive Science from the University of Toronto. I have worked across the lifespan in a wide range of clinical areas, including depression, anxiety, psychosis, grief, self-harm, trauma, and neurodevelopmental conditions such as autism (ASD) and ADHD. My approach is neuroaffirming: I recognise and value each person’s unique profile and build it into therapy. My practice is recovery-focused and draws on evidence-based approaches including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), and Compassion Focused Therapy (CFT). Having grown up in the UAE and worked in Canada, the UK, the UAE, and Malaysia, I am attuned to the ways culture, identity, and lived experience shape mental health and sense of self.
