Nadiya Aamer holds a Level 5 Training in Integrative and Psychodynamic Therapy from CPCAB, UK. Her work focuses on the client’s present concerns and what has brought them to therapy. Nadiya’s work is experiential and she pays attention to the somatic experience of the individual in their present life and in their past experiences. This is a resource for the client; the more they know about how the body feels or has felt in the past, the closer the individual gets to being comfortable in all of the areas that are causing the issues they may have come into therapy for.
Nadiya also uses Gestalt Therapy alongside all aspects available of Psychodynamic and Integrative Therapy . She uses breath work and some yoga in her sessions if and when required. Being connected to one’s body is a resource that can be abundant and help in self-awareness and that aids the individuals quest for a comfortable feeling of being where they are in life. She sees the individual as a human being who wants to reach a certain level of comfort and an understanding how their body is in relation to both the internal and external worlds they belong to.
Nadiya’s area of work includes PTSD, anxiety, depression, issues around shame, grief, self-image, anger. Alongside Psychodynamic Counseling she is an accredited EMDR Practitioner, affiliated with EMDR Asia and Ireland. EMDR is an effective intervention tool for PTSD, OCD and Intrusive thoughts, anxiety, depression and addictions. Her training includes attending ongoing training across the globe with the International EMDR foundation.
She is IFS informed and works with families and couples. Couples Therapy is also part of her training and supervison work with M.S Counseling to which she is affiliated alongside her independent practice.
