Shireen

Ms Shireen Noor

Psychoanalytic Psychotherapist

I am a qualified and accredited psychotherapist based in Northwood and Rickmansworth.

About Me

I offer psychoanalytic psychotherapy, providing a dedicated space to explore deep-seated feelings and long-standing patterns. This deeper exploration helps if you struggle with persistent emotions or behaviours that feel difficult to shift. We can work together to understand how past experiences might influence your present, aiming for profound self-understanding. My goal is to help you make sense of complex emotions, fostering a path towards greater clarity and well-being.

Approach

Coming from my base in Northwood and Rickmansworth, therapy unfolds at a measured, reflective pace where we attend to feelings beneath routine talk. Sessions often mix gentle curiosity with structured listening, pairing moments of silence with careful questions that help trace patterns tied to loss, anxiety, or cross-cultural stress. Between sessions you may be invited to notice small bodily signals or memories that surface, bringing them back to explore safely. This way suits people seeking thoughtful, steady work to understand recurring emotional experiences.
