Professional Background

Welcome. I’m Dr. Esraa Elsehamy, a Licensed Clinical Psychotherapist with a PhD in Clinical Psychology from Cairo University and more than 16 years of clinical experience.

I am licensed by both the Egyptian Ministry of Health and the Saudi Commission for Health Specialties, and I specialize in individual psychotherapy, couples therapy, relationship counseling, and sexual therapy.

Throughout my clinical work, I have supported individuals and couples experiencing a wide range of psychological and relational concerns, including anxiety, depression, trauma, OCD, personality disorders, relationship difficulties, and sexual dysfunction.

My Approach

I believe that every person has a unique psychological journey. There is no single therapeutic approach that works for everyone. For this reason, I work from an integrative, evidence-based approach, drawing on therapeutic modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), based on each client’s needs, personality, and therapeutic goals.

My Philosophy

I don’t believe therapy is about changing who you are.
I believe it is about understanding yourself deeply enough to become who you want to be.
