About

Afirah Azmi is a psychotherapist at Nightingale Hospital in London, with extensive experience in mental health care across private hospitals and treatment centres. She provides both one-to-one therapy and group sessions, supporting individuals facing a range of psychological challenges, including anxiety, depression, personality disorders, addiction, and obsessive-compulsive disorder. Alongside her work at Nightingale Hospital, she is also an associate consultant psychotherapist within a private organisation.
She works with individuals aged 17 and above, helping them navigate complex life experiences such as trauma, addiction, eating disorders, toxic relationships, anxiety, work-related stress, and obsessive-compulsive behaviours. She also offers support to those struggling with self-esteem and relationship difficulties. Afirah has a particular interest in working with survivors of narcissistic abuse and has published an article titled Recovering from a Relationship with a Narcissist. Additionally, she is dedicated to helping clients manage culturally challenging family dynamics.
Her therapeutic approach focuses on establishing a strong relationship with her clients, offering both long and short-term therapy based on their individual needs. She integrates various evidence-based techniques, including cognitive behavioural therapy, counselling, family therapy, and interpersonal therapy, tailoring each treatment plan to the specific concerns of her clients. She is fluent in English, Hindi, and Urdu, allowing her to provide therapy in multiple languages.
Afirah is a BACP-accredited psychotherapist with an Advanced BACP Accredited Diploma in Integrative Psychotherapy. She holds a BSc in Addictions Counselling and has completed specialised training in Sensorimotor Psychotherapy for Trauma.
