Meet Dr Millia
I am a UK-trained Consultant Psychiatrist with over 20 years’ experience working in the NHS in the UK, both in the inpatient and community settings. I am licensed by the Dubai Health Authority (UAE), registered with the General Medical Council (UK), a member of the Royal College of Psychiatrists (UK) and endorsed in General Adult Psychiatry (MRCPsych).
I welcome individuals over the age of 16 and will provide a precise, clear, non-jargoned understanding of the root of their problems using a trauma-informed approach. As a psychiatrist, I am skilled with diagnosis and medication but understands that many of these problems can stem from early adverse life experiences. My goal is to offer effective treatments whilst minimizing medication/dosages wherever possible. I offer phone support to clients in between consultations including any medication-related concerns or anxieties.
I am a trauma therapist with extensive experience in early childhood attachment disruptions and inter-generational trauma. I am experienced in Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapy, a renowned trauma therapy that allows me to work on personal burdens and the cultural, legacy and spiritual burdens of my clients. I have 18 years of experience as a senior EMDR therapist, supervisor and EMDR training facilitator.
