BOOK ME
Hi, I'm Dr. Nafisa Sekandari and I'm a licensed clinical psychologist specializing in anxiety based disorders. I know first hand how stress, anxiety, feeling overwhelmed can make us feel defeated in life and rob us of opportunities. Before I figured out how anxiety and fear created limitations in my life, I allowed anxiety and stress to negatively impact my life in every area from finances to relationships and overall health and well being. Anxiety is currently the number one disorder in the world and expected to get worse. We've seen the negative impact in all aspects of society but no where worse than the work force. Organizations lose millions of dollars a year due to inefficiency, sick leave, and job walk outs due to burn out and overwhelm. Empowering employees to regain control of their lives from anxiety and create an empowered mindset can save companies financially and improve efficiency as well as overall productivity. For individuals who don't have time for therapy, or are too shamed to admit anxiety is negatively impacting their overall work performance, employee trainings are the perfect way to normalize seeking and asking for help. I teach and inspire audiences to embrace and utilize proven strategies to access their level of success, because I believe we are always one step away from unleashing the unlimited potential within
