welcome to arise therapies

Christian counselling in East London and Online for women navigating shame, body image, and faith struggles.

I’m Kadri

I’m a Christian psychotherapist with a heart for walking alongside those navigating trauma, overwhelm, or emotional disconnection. Through Arise Therapies, I offer a compassionate, relational space where healing can begin.

Rooted in my faith, I believe in a God who meets us in our pain and lovingly invites us toward restoration. Whether or not faith is part of your journey, you are welcome here.

Maybe you’re feeling…

  • Like you’ve tried everything – praying, journaling, forgiving but you’re still carrying the weight of what happened.
  • Worn out from always being ‘the strong one’ while quietly struggling inside.
  • Disconnected from God, even though you long to feel close to Him again.
  • Unsure how to set boundaries without feeling guilty or ‘un-Christian.’
  • Like your pain is too much or too messy for church spaces.
  • Torn between trusting your instincts and honouring what you’ve been taught.
  • Haunted by childhood experiences you thought you’d already moved past.
  • Like you’re finally ready to heal but want someone who gets both your faith and your trauma.

What people
are saying

  • Kadri has really helped me understand myself and my anxiety better, with lots of practical advice and strategies mixed with unpacking feelings and behaviours and trying to look for the root causes. Mainly she created a trusted and safe environment in which I could speak my mind. Thank you!

  • I worked with Kadri for a little over 18 months, and the progress I made during that time has been truly life-changing. Each week, I looked forward to our sessions (a rarity for therapy, in my opinion) and felt that our time together allowed me to process complex feelings in a safe and supportive space, something that continued even when our sessions became virtual. Knowing that returning to therapy with Kadri if I need to has helped give me the confidence to try life without therapy for a while, which is something that didn’t feel possible a few years ago.
