About me

My name is Nayyab and I am an accredited CBT Therapist and Europe Accredited EMDR practitioner. I am also CBASP Therapy, Schema Therapy and DBT Skills trained. I have been working for the NHS for over 9 years and I also offer private therapy. 

I have significant experience working with clients who have experienced trauma and who demonstrate symptoms of Post traumatic Stress Disorder. This can be trauma experienced in early childhood or adulthood, even when you can't remember the trauma memory but will have flashbacks or recurring nightmares. 

I am based in the Greater Manchester region of United Kingdom, offering online and telephone therapy which you can access from the comfort of your own home.

I offer a 15 minute consultation absolutely free of charge to discuss symptoms and to answer any questions you may have before deciding to choose me as your therapist.  You can also watch a brief introductory video below on how I can help.
