Dr. Israa Hisham, Specialist Psychiatrist
Dr. Israa holds a Master’s degree in Psychiatry and Addiction from the Faculty of Medicine, Cairo University.

She is a Specialist Psychiatrist who believes that healing begins with being seen and heard.

With over six years of experience working with adolescents and adults, she focuses on creating a space where clients feel understood, supported, and gently challenged to explore their inner world.

Her approach centers on presence, acceptance, active listening, and thoughtful questioning — helping clients develop deeper awareness of their emotions, patterns, and needs.

Rather than offering quick answers, she works collaboratively to uncover what truly lies beneath distress, guiding each person toward clarity and self-compassion.
Dr. Israa currently works with national and international organizations to support mental health in the community, while continuing to see clients privately.

In her practice, she offers a calm, reflective environment that encourages growth, insight, and emotional balance.

She would be honored to walk with you as you begin to understand yourself — not to change who you are, but to help you meet yourself with more awareness and kindness.
