About me
Hello, I’m Raisa, the Clinical Director of Nirvana Circle Therapy, a small team of highly trained, trauma-informed clinicians in London. We offer culturally attuned care to individuals, couples, and families - especially those from diverse ethnic backgrounds - looking to actively break intergenerational and relational patterns. Our work together will be grounded, relational, and depth-oriented. We also provide psychological assessments, including ADHD evaluations, and offer extended-format therapy for more focused support.
At Nirvana Circle Therapy, we approach healing with cultural humility, clinical depth, and a strong respect for the complexity of your lived experience. Our work together may focus on:
- Understanding and shifting generational or relational patterns
- Healing from attachment trauma or family dysfunction
- Exploring identity, belonging, and cultural narratives
- Increasing emotional resilience and self-awareness
- Making sense of ADHD or other neurodiverse experiences
- Strengthening relationship dynamics (as an individual or couple).
We also offer psychological assessments, including ADHD evaluations, to help you gain deeper clarity about emotional and behavioural challenges. These are offered in a thoughtful, affirming, and non-pathologizing way—especially for those who may have been overlooked or misdiagnosed.
If you identify as a ‘cycle-breaker,’ are in a life transition, or feel ready for deeper, focused therapeutic work, I welcome the opportunity to support you.
