Nadia Mirabai Raafat

Therapy with me is not about “fixing” you—it’s about helping you understand yourself more deeply, resourcing you in your challenging moments, and supporting you to move from unconscious reaction to conscious and compassionate response; often that means moving from a place of surviving to thriving so that you can live with greater clarity, authenticity, and connection - both to your authentic self and to the others in your life. I am a transpersonal therapist which means alongside, exploring the psychodynamic forces at work behind your presenting issue, I also prioritise whats happening in the space between us. I am also holding your potential future self in the space too as transpersonal therapy recognises that we are more than just our presenting thoughts and feelings and that that having a life that is meaningful is essential for deep fulfilment. As a somatic and mindful practitioner, I bring your felt experience into our session work and prioritise developing bodily awareness and emotional awareness as thinking your way through Life's challenges is often not enough; psychosynthesis is about integrating your whole self. Whether you're navigating relationship difficulties, trauma recovery, anxiety, life transitions, family conflict, loss, self-discovery or questions of meaning and purpose, this approach helps you move beyond coping, masking or suffering towards a place of genuine self acceptance, integration and wholeness. I work with a variety of tools and practices within the session including visualisations, mindfulness practice and gestalt work as well as classical taking therapy.
