Anxiety & Depression

Quieter mind. Fuller life.

Anxiety and low mood are signals, not defects. We work at both levels, calming the symptom while understanding what it has been trying to tell you.

How it often shows up.

  • The racing mind that will not switch off, especially at night.
  • Functioning impressively on the outside while flat or frightened inside.
  • A low hum of dread with no obvious cause.
  • Irritability with the people you love most, followed by guilt.
  • A flatness where everything works but nothing lands.
  • Physical symptoms your doctor has ruled everything else out for.

If you recognised yourself in two or three of these, that's reason enough to reach out.

The Approach

Symptom relief and root cause, in the same room.

CBT and DBT give fast, practical traction: tools for panic, rumination, sleep and the thought loops that keep anxiety fed. Most clients feel the difference within weeks.

But if tools were enough, the self-help shelf would have cured you already. Psychodynamic work asks the deeper question, what the anxiety protects, what the depression grieves, so relief doesn't depend on managing symptoms forever.

High-functioning anxiety and depression are a specialism of mine. The better you are at performing wellness, the lonelier the struggle becomes, and the more the work has to honour both the competence and the cost.

The Work

What the work includes.

Panic & acute anxiety

Immediate, practical protocols for the moments that feel unsurvivable.

Rumination & overthinking

Interrupting the loops, then understanding what keeps switching them on.

Low mood & depression

From heaviness and numbness back toward appetite for your own life.

Sleep & the body

Where anxiety lives physically: sleep, tension, the 3am wakings.

The roots

Early experience, loss and pressure that taught your nervous system to brace.

A different baseline

Not just fewer bad days, a changed relationship with your own mind.

Common Questions

The questions people bring first.

Do you prescribe medication?

No, I'm not a prescriber. Where medication may help, I work alongside your psychiatrist or GP, and can coordinate care discreetly.

I'm high-functioning. Is this serious enough for therapy?

If it costs you peace, it's serious enough. Many of my clients lead demanding lives extremely well while privately exhausted, that gap is precisely what we close.

English or Arabic?

Either, or both. Anxiety often speaks the language of childhood, working in your mother tongue can reach places a second language cannot.
