About me

Online availability for therapy sessions.

With over 17 years' experience, Dr. Soha offers evidence based therapy and specialises in low mood/depression, anxiety, trauma and PTSD, self-criticism, self-esteem, cultural issues, personal growth and development. You may be feeling overwhelmed or stuck and feel restricted by current or past problems. Dr. Soha can help you work on your relationship with yourself and understand what is getting in the way of living the life you want.

Dr. Soha uses approaches such as Cognitive behaviour therapy (CBT), ACT and DBT. She also employs eye movement desensitisation reprocessing (EMDR), person centred therapy and Compassion focused therapy (CFT).

Dr. Soha tailors therapy to suit your needs. Sessions with her won't involve "just talking about the problem" but more specific ways to help you move towards your goals by offering new perspectives and at times, gentle challenges. She utilises body-mind healing and somatic approaches to therapy and aim to address core issues rather than surface level healing. Her approach involves a unique combination of understanding the origin of the issues and exploring the past, as well as strategies and coping mechanisms to deal with these issues in the present.

Dr. Soha also provides ADHD assessments and diagnosis. She has worked with several individuals with ADHD and those who are questioning whether they have ADHD. She has specialist advanced training in assessing for ADHD from the UK Adult ADHD Network (UKAAN), and follows the latest AQAS guidelines for robust ADHD assessments.

Dr. Soha has extensive experience working in the NHS. She also has considerable experience in academia and has taught graduate and masters level students at the University of Leeds and University of central Lancashire. Her approach is informal, empathetic and compassionate.

She currently offers online appointments only, giving you the opportunity to explore issues in a safe and comfortable environment.
