About me
Hi, my name is Nav (she/her) and I am a therapist who offers culturally sensitive psychotherapy for South Asian, Global Majority and LGBTQIA+ clients navigating shame, identity, belonging and relationships.
My clients often come to therapy feeling anxious, depressed, or struggling with their identity and self-esteem. Over time, I have developed a specialism in supporting individuals with layered intersectional identities and the unique challenges this can bring when navigating the world, which can often feel isolating and lonely. Together, we can work towards building a clearer sense of self, deeper and more meaningful relationships, and greater emotional wellbeing.
What you can expect from Therapy
I offer a confidential, empathetic, and non-judgemental space where we can build a therapeutic relationship grounded in honesty, trust, and understanding. Therapy can help bring awareness to patterns and blind spots, allowing us to explore the deeper roots of the challenges you may be facing.
Together, we can gently explore difficult emotions, painful memories, and experiences that may feel hard to carry alone. Through this process, therapy can support healing, self-understanding, and meaningful change.
I offer weekly, open-ended therapy sessions, allowing space for the work to unfold at a pace that feels right for you. Sessions are available in person from my office in King’s Cross, as well as online via Zoom.
If you are struggling, please feel free to get in touch. We can arrange an initial call to see whether we feel like a good fit, and you are welcome to ask any questions you may have about me or the therapy process.
What to expect in our first session
Our first session is an opportunity for us to get to know one another and explore whether working together feels like the right fit. During this initial assessment, I will aim to build an understanding of your current experiences and what has brought you to therapy, while also giving you the space to ask any questions you may have about the therapeutic process. If we decide to continue, we can then arrange a regular day and time for our weekly sessions.

Member organisations
BACP is one of the UK’s leading professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy with around 60,000 members. The Association has several different categories of membership, including Student Member, Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP, Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Accred) and Senior Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Snr Acccred). Registered and accredited members are listed on the BACP Register, which shows that they have demonstrated BACP’s recommended standards for training, proficiency and ethical practice. The BACP Register was the first register of psychological therapists to be accredited by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA). Accredited and senior accredited membership are voluntary categories for members who choose to undertake a rigorous application and assessment process to demonstrate additional standards around practice, training and supervision. Individual members will have completed an appropriate counselling or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but they won’t appear on the BACP Register until they've demonstrated that they meet the standards for registration. Student members are still in the process of completing their training. All members are bound by the BACP Ethical Framework and a Professional Conduct Procedure.
Accredited register membership
The Accredited Register Scheme was set up in 2013 by the Department of Health (DoH) as a way to recognise organisations that hold voluntary registers which meet certain standards. These standards are set by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).
This therapist has indicated that they belong to an Accredited Register.
