She empowers you to explore your inner strengths, creating a therapy plan based on your individualized needs. She works using a mixed methods approach with Emotion Focused Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Dialectical Behavioural Therapy, Narrative Therapy, and Mindfulness. She integrates mindfulness exercises within sessions, such as breath work and being present at the moment, empowering you while building a coping skills toolkit.

Khadhija strives to create a space where genuineness and authenticity flow freely. With unconditional support, your sessions will be a stepping stone towards healing and personal growth.
