Miss Marwa El-borhamy, MSc

Psychology Practitioner

I am a dedicated Psychological Consultant specializing in helping individuals navigate high-stress life transitions, severe anxiety, and emotional burnout. My approach bridges traditional psychological science with evidence-based behavioral strategies and somatic practices to help you regulate your nervous system, establish firm emotional boundaries, and rebuild internal stability. Whether you are dealing with the psychological toll of a major life change like a divorce, coping with chronic panic and anxiety, or navigating deep-seated stress, I provide a compassionate, structured, and action-oriented online space. Together, we work to move you out of a state of survival and into a life of clarity, alignment, and long-term well-being.

About Me

Taking the first step toward professional support requires immense courage. As an online practitioner holding an MSc in Psychology from Coventry University and Graduate Membership with the British Psychological Society (MBPsS), my practice is grounded in deep academic knowledge and a passion for holistic human flourishing. My therapeutic approach is integrative, adaptive, and client-centered. I incorporate the following core modalities into our online sessions to ensure you receive comprehensive support tailored to your unique needs (as outlined in my focus areas): Cognitive & Behavioral Frameworks (CBT): To identify and gently reframe the limiting thought patterns, core beliefs, and loops that keep you stuck in anxiety or depression. Somatic Therapy & Practices: To address the physical manifestation of stress, panic, and trauma in the body, teaching you how to ground your nervous system in real-time. Divorce Coping & Relationship Consultancy: Providing a supportive, structured environment to navigate the complex grief, identity shifts, legal stresses, and boundary-setting that accompany major relationship transitions. Having navigated intense life transitions myself, I know firsthand how vital it is to have a space where you are truly heard, validated, and equipped with practical tools. In our virtual practice, we don't just talk about the challenges—we actively collaborate to create a personalized roadmap toward inner peace, resilience, and personal alignment. I look forward to walking alongside you on this journey.

Approach

I guide clients through an attentive, paced collaboration where curiosity and practical steps share space, so change feels possible and contained. I keep our work rooted in present experience, short reflections and small experiments between meetings to test new ways of being. We set clear, manageable focuses each week, use simple tools to notice patterns and gently reframe what’s getting in the way.
