She works in English, German, and Kurdish (Kurmanji) and is known for her culturally sensitive, warm, and reflective therapeutic style.
She works integrative, using person centred, psychoanalytic, relational, and mindfulness based approaches. Her focus is always on the client’s concerns, while gently supporting deeper emotional exploration. She is trauma informed and works with people affected by displacement, immigration or refugee experiences, as well as grief and trauma linked to conflicts affecting their communities or countries abroad. She also offers secure online sessions for clients living overseas
Trained at Nafsiyat Intercultural Therapy Centre, she continued working there after qualifying, strengthening her intercultural and anti oppressive practice. Alongside her private work, she has also freelanced in various mental health settings, supporting marginalised communities and offering both in person and online counselling
Groupwork is an important part of what she offers. She provides long term psychotherapy groups, therapeutic groups she has coordinated and managed for many years, psycho educational workshops, and reflective practice groups for professionals.
