About Nelofar
Nelofar Zaheer
Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying)
Nelofar brings a calm, thoughtful presence to her clinical work, one that helps clients feel safe, engaged, and quietly supported. Her approach is grounded in evidence-based practices, including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Schema Therapy, and mindfulness-informed interventions, but it’s her attunement to nuance and emotional depth that gives her work its signature clarity.
With experience in both community and healthcare settings, she supports individuals navigating anxiety, identity questions, self-esteem challenges, and periods of emotional uncertainty. Her sessions offer a steady, reflective space where people can slow down, explore, and reconnect with what matters most.
Clients often describe Nelofar’s style as quietly impactful: a blend of grounded professionalism and relational warmth that stays with them beyond the session. Her presence and clinical approach reflect the high standard of care offered at Another Path Psychotherapy.
