Aisha Paez-Benguigui

Aisha Rachel Paez-Benguigui is a psychotherapist, counsellor, and EMDR therapist who brings an integrative and humanistic approach to her work at Nightingale Hospital. She provides individual and couples therapy, supporting patients through a wide range of emotional, relational, and psychological difficulties, including anxiety, depression, postnatal challenges, stress, burnout, eating disorders, and trauma.

With more than 2,500 supervised clinical hours and over 15 years of international corporate experience, Aisha draws from both clinical expertise and real-world insight into the pressures of fast-paced, multicultural environments. Her background allows her to offer a unique perspective when working with clients navigating work-life balance, leadership stress, identity issues, and significant life transitions.

At the core of Aisha’s practice is an integrative approach tailored to each individual. She combines elements of person-centred therapy, cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), dialectical behaviour therapy (DBT), Gestalt, Jungian, and Psychosynthesis principles, alongside Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR) and mindfulness-based techniques. This flexible approach helps patients develop a deeper connection to themselves, fostering resilience, clarity, and emotional wellbeing.

Aisha offers therapy in English and Spanish and is a qualified psychotherapist and psychological counsellor with an MA in Psychology and Psychotherapy. She is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (MBACP), the UK Council for Psychotherapy (MUKCP), and EMDR UK.
