Alaa Abuali

Psychotherapist
Professional Experience

Alaa Abuali is a psychotherapist with over 14 years of international experience supporting individuals, couples, and families through complex emotional challenges.

She trained intensively in New Jersey, USA, before going on to work in both inpatient and outpatient mental health settings across Dubai, where she provided psychological support to patients and their families in trauma, psychiatric, and emergency care units.

Now based in London, Alaa leads her own private practice while also consulting with several specialist clinics. Her therapeutic approach is trauma-focused, collaborative, and integrative; blending expressive arts with body-centred techniques to help clients explore how trauma is held in the body and foster deeper healing.

Alaa supports adults facing a wide spectrum of challenges including depression, anxiety, grief, chronic illness, identity concerns, and relational difficulties. Her work is rooted in the belief that every individual has the capacity for transformation, and that healing begins within the safety of a trusted therapeutic relationship.

Alaa offers a secure space for clients to process, reflect, and move toward lasting change.
