Nagham Alaraji, BACP

Nagham Alaraji is a psychodynamic counsellor who draws on relational approaches to help people facing stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and grief. She is a BACP counsellor and has three years of professional experience. She speaks English and Arabic and practices from the United Kingdom.

She focuses on creating a calm, non-judgemental space where people can talk about painful feelings. Sessions are intended to let thoughts and emotions be heard and understood. The aim is to reduce overwhelm and find clearer ways to cope with everyday pressures.

Nagham uses psychodynamic ideas to look at patterns that repeat in relationships and in personal reactions. She also uses attachment-based perspectives to consider how early relationships affect trust and closeness now. Solution-focused techniques are used alongside these approaches to identify small, practical steps that can make daily life easier.

Her work includes support for people grieving a loss, coping after trauma or abuse, and navigating trust, commitment or communication problems. She also offers help with long-term struggles such as depression, anger around abandonment, body image concerns and caregiver stress.

Sessions are offered in English and Arabic and are aimed at adults. If you are ready to start, the usual first step is to complete a short matching questionnaire and then arrange a time to meet the counsellor.

How her approaches suit online therapy

Psychodynamic therapy invites people to talk about patterns in their relationships and feelings so they become easier to notice and change. It can help with recurring anxiety, relationship struggles and depressive periods by making sense of how past experiences shape present reactions.

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early bonds affect trust and closeness now. This approach is useful for people wrestling with commitment issues, fear of abandonment or difficulty forming stable connections with others.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The counsellor will discuss goals and preferences and then try methods that fit the person's needs. Decisions about pace and focus are made collaboratively so sessions feel relevant and manageable.

Please confirm what session formats are currently offered before booking, as the biography does not list specific delivery methods. Online work can make sessions easier to fit around daily life, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also make it simpler to see a counsellor who speaks English or Arabic across different locations.
