- Nadia Saghafi
Nadia Saghafi is an Associate Marriage and Family Therapist who brings over two decades of international psychiatric experience to her work with insightful, driven individuals and couples ready to understand themselves on a deeper level.
With specialized expertise in anxiety, relationship dynamics, and trauma recovery, she creates safe therapeutic spaces where clients can process past experiences, understand their relational patterns, and build a stronger, more secure sense of self. Nadia is particularly drawn to reflective clients who are motivated for change and willing to engage in the meaningful work of healing and growth, supporting them as they discover their authentic way forward with clarity, strength, and self-compassion.
Her therapeutic approach is trauma-informed and attachment-based, integrating Narrative Therapy and Emotionally Focused techniques within a collaborative, individualized framework. Nadia helps clients understand how past experiences and relational patterns shape their present struggles while creating compassionate spaces to process emotions and build healthier ways of relating. Her methodology emphasizes emotional awareness, nervous system regulation, and meaningful healing rather than quick fixes. She pays close attention to the patterns that develop in early relationships and how they show up in present-day connections, helping clients build more secure, authentic, and fulfilling relationships.
With a Master's degree in Marriage and Family Therapy and specialized training in trauma-informed, attachment-based, and Narrative approaches, Nadia brings comprehensive clinical expertise enriched by her extensive background practicing psychiatry internationally. This unique combination provides her with deep understanding of complex emotional and relational dynamics, allowing her to address both psychological symptoms and underlying patterns with nuance and sophistication. Her clinical experience includes working with individuals and couples navigating persistent anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, major life transitions, grief, boundary-setting difficulties, self-esteem struggles, and the overwhelm of juggling personal and professional responsibilities.
Outside the therapy room, Nadia finds peace and renewal in nature, often seeking natural settings to recharge and reconnect with herself. Music and cinema serve as two of her favorite ways to connect with emotion and storytelling, reflecting her deep appreciation for narrative and the human experience. She values depth in conversations, art, and life itself, bringing this same appreciation for meaningful exploration to her therapeutic work with clients.
