She brings a strong foundation in both academic and clinical practice. Alongside her doctoral studies, Maryam runs a private counselling practice, which enables her to stay closely connected to therapeutic work and bring practical insights into her teaching and supervision.

Her ability to create a safe and supportive space has been central to her approach in both group facilitation and supervision.
