Khansa Healing, a Liberation Oriented Home for Growth.

The spirit of my practice is informed by a radical belief in the capacity for change in both my clients and the world around us. My practice is informed by a desire for social justice, decolonization, and helping my clients achieve their fullest sense of self. I have a deep sense of solidarity with those who suffer, and a relentless fascination of the mystery and magic at the heart of everyday life.

My Approach

Hi! I’m Nadia Khansa, I’m a licensed therapist in Washington DC. This is a liberation-focussed space to build your relationship with yourself. I help clients gain a deeper understanding of your emotions, and heal from past wounds. Whether it is long term difficulties with relationships, abuse, or attachment trauma, processing illness, grief, or navigating the impact of systemic oppression from racial or gender trauma—the things that have happened to you do not have to be in control of you. I help my clients find empowerment in building the future you want and finding a healthy relationship with your past and overcome oppression and injustice.

Advice from past clients:

  • “Try to enjoy the present moment. Big and small joys can run alongside tragedies."

  • “It’s okay to change the plan. It’s okay to let go of the ideas you have for yourself and take the time to figure out what’s right for you.”

  • “You don’t need to treat yourself the way other people have treated you. You deserve grace, kindness, and patience. Patience is a form of mercy.”

  • “Things don’t always happen how you expect them to, be flexible with your needs, and always remember to be kind to yourself.”

  • “You can’t force other people to get better, you can only help yourself and try to build a mutually supportive space along the way.”

  • “This is an investment in understanding yourself better that will open doors in every area of your life.”

  • "Just let it hurt. Don't ignore your pain, let yourself feel what you need to."

  • "You don't have to make your problems seem smaller. The problem can be big, and you can still handle it."
