“Aïcha is an amazing provider! She’s warm, attentive, and truly cares about her clients. She creates a trusting environment that makes me feel safe to share what’s troubling me. Her calming nature is really grounding and inviting. Her somatic approach in therapy helps me get out of my mind and tune into bodily sensations, making it easier to identify complex emotions. Shes extremely accommodating and understanding. Aïcha has helped me in ways that I never thought were possible :) ”

“I felt understood from the very first session. I never felt judged or made to feel like something was wrong with me. I was met with genuine compassion and support during one of my most difficult times. They were also thoughtful and responsive in helping me navigate an important time-sensitive need, which made a big difference. Our work together helped me regain a sense of hope and better understand and articulate what I was going through. I truly felt cared for and supported and would highly recommend this provider.”

Getting to know Aïcha Nadifi

****I DO NOT ACCEPT MEDICAID**** I draw from trauma-informed, somatic, and attachment-based approaches—including IFS, Somatic Experiencing, CBT, and ACT—to meet you where you are and tailor our work to your unique needs. Therapy with me is collaborative, compassionate, and focused on helping you feel heard, understood, and more confident navigating life with greater clarity, self-awareness, and self-trust. As soon as you book an appointment, someone from Remote Therapy New York will reach out to you. You will also receive a welcome email from Headway within 24 hours to complete your intake paperwork and insurance verification.

What should a new client know about working with you?

🚨 **PLEASE NOTE: I DO NOT ACCEPT MEDICAID.** 🚨 You do not need to have everything figured out before starting therapy. Therapy is a space where you can show up exactly as you are, without judgment, and begin exploring the challenges that are weighing on you. Together, we will work to better understand what you're experiencing, identify patterns that may be keeping you stuck, and develop practical tools to help you feel more grounded, confident, and supported in your daily life. My approach is warm, collaborative, and tailored to your unique needs. I draw from trauma-informed, somatic, attachment-based, and evidence-based approaches, including IFS, Somatic Experiencing, CBT, and ACT. Whether you're struggling with anxiety, relationship difficulties, self-esteem concerns, life transitions, or feeling overwhelmed, my goal is to help you feel heard, understood, and empowered to create meaningful change. I hope that through our work together, you leave each session with greater clarity, self-awareness, emotional resilience, and trust in yourself. Once you schedule an appointment, a member of the Remote Therapy New York team will contact you. You will also receive a welcome email from Headway within 24 hours with instructions to complete your intake paperwork and insurance verification.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

🚨 **PLEASE NOTE: I DO NOT ACCEPT MEDICAID.** 🚨 Starting therapy can feel intimidating, especially if you're not quite sure where to begin. You don't need to have all the answers before reaching out. Our work together will start with understanding what brought you to therapy, what challenges you're facing, and what you hope will feel different in your life. My approach is warm, collaborative, and tailored to your individual needs. Together, we will explore patterns that may be contributing to emotional distress, strengthen your understanding of yourself, and identify practical steps toward creating the changes you want to see. Therapy is a space where you can move at your own pace, feel supported, and be met with compassion rather than judgment. Depending on your goals, I may integrate CBT, ACT, psychodynamic, trauma-informed, attachment-based, and somatic approaches to help you better understand your experiences, develop effective coping skills, and build a stronger sense of confidence and self-trust. My hope is that you leave each session feeling heard, supported, and equipped with both insight and practical tools that help you navigate life with greater clarity, balance, and emotional well-being.
