Hello! My name is Nafisa, however I go by ‘Fisa’ as well, I’m a registered psychotherapist and counsellor with the Psychotherapy and Counselling Federation of Australia (PACFA). During my bachelors of psychological Science, I realised the importance of lived experience and being able to hold space for a client more so than just treating symptoms of mental disorders. I changed my aim from psychology to a masters of psychotherapy and counselling; which was the best decision for me.

After completing my masters I had the opportunity to work as a project officer, creating mental health content for couples in marriages. Working ground up provided me with an insight into the community’s struggles as not only individuals but also how it effects relationships, and consequently families and the youth.
