Her Story
Scherezade was rasied by a psychologist and her own struggles with depression as a teenager set her off on a journey to understand the inner sanctuaries of human experiences, emotions and encounters. Her therapeutic practice is rooted in existential psychology, psychodynamic approaches and humanistic methods. She is averse to pathologising mental health and prefers to look at experiences without limiting them to being a sum of our parts. She is also a well-published writer who has written for The Quint, HuffPost, Vice, London Magazine, Berfrois, Kohl Press among others. Her work has been translated into French, Arabic, Mandarin among other languages. She created and facilitated "Poetry as a Therapy Aid" for The London School, UK. She has conducted workshops, guided rituals, arts immersion experiences in the US, UK, Hong Kong and across India. Her latest book "That Beautiful Elsewhere: Journeys in Mental Health" (Harper Collins) is available here.
