Zunash Raza

Meet Zunash Raza, a compassionate and dedicated Associate Clinical Psychologist from Pakistan who helps people work through emotional challenges, understand themselves more deeply and move towards meaningful personal growth.

Zunash holds a Master of Science in Clinical Psychology from the National University of Sciences and Technology (NUST), Islamabad, and a Bachelor's degree in Psychology from the University of Peshawar. She has also completed a Trauma-Informed Certificate and specialised training in Problem Management Plus (PM+), a low-intensity psychological intervention.

Her clinical experience spans hospital and tele-mental health settings. She completed an internship in the Psychiatry Department of PAEC General Hospital, Islamabad. As a Trainee Psychologist with Taskeen Health Initiative, she provided telephonic counselling to clients across Pakistan, under the supervision of qualified clinical psychologists. She has also run community and one-to-one sessions through a mental health initiative of NUST and the Akhter Hameed Khan Foundation.

Zunash supports individuals experiencing anxiety, low mood, trauma, prolonged grief and loss, and personality-related concerns, particularly Borderline Personality Disorder. She also works with family conflicts and relationship difficulties. She understands how personal experiences, family dynamics and cultural background shape mental well-being, and believes every person deserves a space where they feel heard, valued and understood without judgement.

In her work, Zunash primarily uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and mindfulness-based techniques, along with strategies from Rational Emotive Behaviour Therapy (REBT) and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT). She also draws on a psychodynamic perspective to explore how past experiences may influence present thoughts, emotions and behaviours. Her practice is trauma-informed, with a strong focus on emotional safety, trust and respect.

Zunash sees therapy as a collaborative journey of healing and growth. She works alongside you, at your own pace, to develop healthier coping skills, build self-confidence, make sense of your emotions and create lasting positive change in your life.
