Hello!

I'm happy we've connected! 

My name is Nafisa Sekandari and I'm a licensed clinical psychologist, award winning author, and online trainer. 

The picture on the right is basically my current professional status in a nutshell. 

I've been passionate about empowering every individual I work with about living their best life. 

One of my passions is helping those suffering from anxiety to take back control of their lives.  

I realized my passion comes from my own personal and familial history with anxiety.  It's taken me many years to figure out the most effective and natural way to manage my anxiety. 

I've been using this strategy with my own patients over the past 10 years with great success.  In addition to empowering my patients to get control of anxiety, this strategy has also helped address other mental issues such as improved attention and concentration, better sleep, and less stress.

In addition to my passion of empowering my patients and students suffering from anxiety, I'm also passionate about helping non-Muslim medical and mental health professionals provide culturally competent services to the Muslim community. 

As a Muslim mental health professional I realize there is a huge shortage of Muslim service providers to meet the needs of the Muslim community.  I also understand that due to this shortage, many Muslims will seek the help and support of non-Muslim providers who don't feel comfortable or lack the training to effectively work with the Muslim community. 

For this reason, I'm on a mission to empower non-Muslim providers to feel confident in their service delivery with the Muslim community.

I'm excited to be connected with you via linkedin.  Hope our paths cross in person one day.  In the meantime, please let me know if you have any questions or need anything.  Let's stay in touch.
