Dr Ayesha Nazir

Licensed Mental Health Counselor

An experienced, competent Licensed medical doctor & mental health counselor working with all mental health issues ( trauma, abuse, PTSD, grief, anxiety, depression, addictions, anger management, eating disorders, schizophrenia, bipolar etc.)

About Me

Navigating complex mental health challenges can feel overwhelming. As a medical doctor and licensed mental health counsellor, I integrate these perspectives. I support a wide range of issues, from trauma and anxiety to complex mood disorders. My approach is trauma-informed, using practical NLP techniques. I aim to provide a grounded, safe space. Here, we can work together towards your stability and well-being.

Approach

From that starting point, I focus on translating overwhelming symptoms into practical, ordered steps you can try between sessions. In Islamabad and online, in English or Urdu, sessions are steady and paced to your tolerance, blending brief clinical checks with open, everyday conversation. We apply targeted tools—simple reframes, skill practice, short behavioural experiments and focused coping plans—while I track progress and adjust strategies as you gain stability. This structured, compassionate way of working suits people facing trauma, mood or addictive patterns who want clear steps and steady support.
