I’m Faiza (she/her), a UKCP-accredited psychotherapist, Chartered Occupational Psychologist, and HCPC-registered practitioner. My personal experiences growing up as a person of colour in London sparked my passion for understanding how our life stories shape who we are and how we grow. I began my career as a behaviour therapist working with autistic children, but I soon realised I was more drawn to exploring the intricate, complex and systemic factors that influence us. This led me to specialise as an organisational psychologist, focusing on inclusive cultures and leadership development.

After over a decade working within organisations and coaching executives, I felt drawn back to clinical practice. Fourteen years ago, I returned to therapeutic work, blending my experience in organisational change with a deep passion for personal transformation. Since then, I’ve worked with a wide range of clients—from refugees and women from disadvantaged backgrounds to CEOs and leadership professionals. I also run a weekly group for male offenders in a forensic psychiatric hospital.

Clients describe me as warm, genuine, and honest. I believe healing happens in supportive spaces where we can take risks and experiment. I’m deeply committed to inclusivity and strive to ensure my practice acknowledges the societal barriers to mental health, especially for marginalised communities. I believe in the resilience of the human spirit and aim to create spaces where clients feel seen, heard, and supported in their healing and growth.
