About Nagham
Nagham Alaraji is a psychodynamic counsellor who draws on three years of clinical experience. She works with people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse. She speaks English and Arabic which helps when cultural context matters.
Nagham aims to create a calm, non-judgemental space where people can speak freely about painful memories and current worries. Sessions are a place to make sense of feelings and repeated patterns that keep causing distress.
Background and approach
She listens for how early attachments influence present relationships and everyday choices. Her approach mixes longer-term exploration with practical, solution-focused tasks. That means looking at underlying patterns while also agreeing on small steps to try between sessions.
This combination helps when someone wants both understanding and clearer ways to cope day to day. Nagham has worked with people affected by abandonment, adoption and foster care issues, attachment difficulties, and life changes such as ageing or caring for someone. She also has experience supporting people dealing with body image, communication and codependency concerns.
People can expect straightforward language in sessions and an emphasis on mutual respect. Taking the first step can feel hard, and Nagham encourages anyone ready to explore their concerns to reach out and start the matching process.

Therapeutic approaches for online sessions
Psychodynamic therapy focuses on understanding how past experiences shape current feelings and relationship patterns. In online sessions this often involves talking through memories and recurring reactions to help make them clearer and less overwhelming.Attachment-based therapy looks at how early bonds affect trust and closeness in adult relationships. It can help when someone struggles with fear of rejection, clinging, or difficulty depending on others.
Finding the right approach is part of the work and will be a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful, then adapt the way sessions are run to fit the person's needs.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls let people see facial expression and body language, while phone sessions work well if video is difficult or bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging suit shorter check-ins, written reflections, or when someone prefers not to speak in real time. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving, or other commitments and to keep continuity when life is busy.
