Ms Arooj Imtiaz Abbasi, MSc

Clinical Psychologist

If you are feeling overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, stuck in unhelpful patterns, or struggling to make sense of your thoughts and experiences, you do not have to navigate it alone. As a Clinical Psychologist, I work with adolescents and adults who are facing anxiety, depression, trauma-related difficulties, ADHD, relationship challenges, emotional regulation concerns, and major life transitions. Many of the individuals I see are high-functioning on the outside but internally battling self-doubt, overthinking, stress, or unresolved past experiences. In therapy, I provide a structured yet compassionate space where we work collaboratively to understand what is happening beneath the surface. I use evidence-based approaches, including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and integrative therapeutic frameworks, to help you develop practical coping strategies, emotional insight, and long-term psychological resilience. If needed, I also offer comprehensive psychological assessments to provide diagnostic clarity and guide effective treatment planning. My goal is not only symptom relief, but meaningful and sustainable change — helping you build healthier patterns, strengthen emotional awareness, and move forward with greater confidence and stability.

About Me

am a Clinical Psychologist providing evidence-based psychotherapy and psychological assessment for adolescents and adults experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma-related concerns, ADHD, and emotional or interpersonal difficulties. My approach is structured, collaborative, and insight-driven. I integrate Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) with individualized formulation to ensure therapy is both practical and meaningful — focusing not only on symptom relief but on lasting psychological growth. I offer a confidential, ethically grounded therapeutic space where clients can develop clarity, resilience, and healthier coping patterns. My goal is to help you move from feeling overwhelmed or stuck toward greater emotional stability and self-understanding.

Approach

I focus on practical, research-informed work that helps you notice patterns and build coping skills. Sessions are collaborative and paced to your rhythm, combining focused reflection with small behavioral experiments and quick skill practice so ideas feel usable between meetings. I tend to set clear, achievable goals together, check progress each week, and adapt tools to fit your day-to-day demands. This way of working often suits people seeking steady, skill-based change and clearer emotional balance.
