Nadia is a psychodynamic psychotherapist working in full time practice, in Brighton and London. Nadia originally completed a rigorous 4 year training at WPF Therapy. and has subsequently gained considerable experience of working with people with a broad range of issues. She is a fully accredited member of the BPC (British Psychoanalytic Council) and the FPC (Foundation for Counselling and Psychotherapy).

Nadia offers a space for clients to explore whatever they feel is causing them difficulty – whether they have been struggling for a long time or perhaps have experienced a recent crisis. She takes the view that no human being is immune from suffering and whatever the reason, psychotherapy sessions can provide a crucial opportunity to process and reflect on struggles, think about relational patterns that might be unhelpful and explore how past experiences could be having an impact on the present day. Psychodynamic work can take time, requiring courage to think about feelings that may have been avoided for a long time. However, it can also be a relief to find the safe and ongoing support to enable a better understanding of oneself and to begin to change one’s relationship with self and others.
