About Nazanin
Welcome!
I am an Intern Therapist here at Flourish Psychotherapy Kingston offering a client-centred approach that honours your unique story, strengths, and aspirations. Grounded in cultural anthropology, gender studies, and sociology, I weave together diverse perspectives to help you feel seen, heard, and understood on a deeper level.
With professional experience in human rights advocacy, I bring practical insight into systemic challenges and power dynamics, empowering you to navigate life’s complexities with clarity and confidence. Whether you’re wrestling with identity, relationships, or life transitions, we’ll work together to uncover the patterns that hold you back and tap into the strengths you already possess.
As a mother and lifelong learner, I approach every session with warmth and empathy. I create a safe, non-judgmental space where vulnerability is met with respect and where growth unfolds at your pace. Your goals become our roadmap; from building practical coping skills to fostering lasting self-compassion and resilience, every step is tailored to what matters most to you.

Therapeutic Approach
I approach therapy with a holistic lens that honors both cultural context and lived experience, drawing from evidence-informed tools from client-centred, attachment-based, narrative, CBT, and mindfulness-based practices tailored to support your unique journey. Through collaborative goal-setting aligned with your personal values and vision, we chart a path that feels authentic to you. In a supportive environment, challenges and setbacks become opportunities for learning, empowering you to cultivate resilience and embrace meaningful growth.
Who Do I Work With?
In my sessions, I work with individuals 14 years of age and older who want to get more out of life than what they are experiencing day-to-day.
