Nafsiyat is a registered charity (No. 287819) and has been providing high quality, low cost, community based 'intercultural' psychodynamic psychotherapy in North London since 1983. It provides psychotherapy for patients from diverse cultural backgrounds and therapists not only work with patients from cultures and ethnicities different from their own but also the therapists themselves come from a wide range of ethnic and cultural backgrounds
Our main work covers providing psychotherapy and counselling services to members of cultural minority groups. Staff at Nafsiyat includes analytically trained psychotherapists and counsellors. The number of therapy (paid staff, students and volunteers) and administration staff is fifteen and the current languages available are Arabic, Bengali, Turkish, Greek, Farsi and Japanese. However these languages fluctuate with changes in staff.
