From an early age, Clinical Psychologist Dr Saliha Afridi knew that she wanted to change the world. What began as a desire to heal evolved into helping people to help themselves and today Dr Saliha leads The Lighthouse: a community mental health clinic based in Dubai.
I was so thrilled to sit with Dr Saliha in the beautiful space she’s created in the heart of Dubai. We talked about everything from therapy to work to parenting and religion.
She revealed that she’s deleted Instagram from her phone and how she stayed connected to love through divorce. Our chat was full of energy and joy and laughter. Absolutely loved it.
