Hi! Thank you for taking time to read my profile. My name is Nahid Aghili and I am a qualified counsellor with Postgraduate Diploma in Transactional Analysis (TA) studies from Middlesex University in London and I am a member of the British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy, Registered Member (107538).
I am of Persian background and lived in Florence for many years before moving to London in the 1980's. Both English and Farsi are my first languages but I am also fluent in Italian.
My primary therapy orientation is person-cantered as well as Transactional Analysis Therapy. I strongly believe that a strong therapeutic relationship is paramount for client growth. I maintain that therapy should be an authentic experience, and the client’s need to be heard, valued, and understood is primary.
I see my role as both a leader and a follower in treatment to promote client change, and thus I practice a balance of basic empathy and unconditional positive regard combined with reality checking and problem solving in therapy.
I believe in treating others with respect and dignity. I will meet you where you are and move along at your pace. I don't believe in stigmatizing labels.
I acknowledge the courage it takes to seek a more fulfilling and happier life and commend you for your choice in reaching for that goal. I look forward to working together.

Nahid is so understanding and caring, she has really helped me to recognise unhelpful patterns of behaviour and gave me some great advice. It’s truly life changing. I can’t wait to continue working with her. Thank you so much Nahid

Nahid is lovely to speak with. She is knowledgeable and supportive and allows you to lead yourself where you need to go, without being told what to do, but while still offering advise and guidance along the way.

Nahid is truly one of a kind.
Her unending compassion makes me feel heard and seen and her extensive experience makes me feel understood. In only a few sessions I felt so much progress was made and it has only increased since. I am so grateful for the loving self reflection she provides. Like the other review said, she is a true healer.

Nahid Aghili was my therapist for 2 months. I worked with her in a moment where I felt lost and very vulnerable, and she supported me with her kind, delightful and understanding approach. Thanks to her, I got a deeper insight on some aspects regarding relationships, my background, anxiety and more. I would definitely recommend her for the way she put me at ease in such a loving and considerate way.

I was a bit nervous to start therapy but my first session with Nahid put me completely at ease. She is so warm and caring and made me feel so comfortable from the first moment we spoke. In our sessions, I've been given very helpful perspectives on the issues that I'm facing. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a therapist. Thank you Nahid

Dr Nahid is easy to speak to , she makes you feel comfortable, listens and understand you with no judgements. It’s not easy to find a therapist that understand Middle Eastern households so I was lucky to have found her. Totally recommend working with her !
