Today
My work is guided by a belief that healing is not just clinical—it is relational. It lives in how we listen, how we hold each other, and how we regulate within ourselves. Whether I’m working with patients, practitioners, or organisations, the thread running through it all is simple: regulation allows us to reconnect—to ourselves, to one another, and to what matters most.
I began my career inside the systems that shaped me—NHS hospitals, multidisciplinary teams, and fast-paced clinical environments. I trained as a psychiatrist, qualified as a Cognitive Analytic Therapist and an EMDR Practitioner, and worked across general adult psychiatry, liaison, perinatal, and child and adolescent mental health. Alongside this, I built Cognitions for CASC—a national programme to support doctors preparing for psychiatric exams with depth and compassion.
Over time, my focus expanded. I became increasingly curious about what sits beneath diagnosis—about the nervous system as the foundation of safety, meaning, and change. Today, my work bridges the clinical and the systemic. I lead pilots, develop peer-led models, facilitate workshops, and contribute to trauma-informed innovation. And at the centre of all of it is a quiet commitment: to build the kind of healing I believe is possible.

About
I’m Dr. Abrar Hussain—psychiatrist, therapist, teacher, and guide in the work of nervous system-informed healing. My clinical roots run deep, but the real work lives in the space between: where science meets story, and regulation becomes the foundation for relational change.
Tomorrow
I believe the future of healing lies in how we understand and support the nervous system—across disciplines, settings, and roles. The science is clear, but the application requires care: not just new tools, but new ways of relating, leading, and listening. My work is focused on building those pathways—bridging the gap between insight and integration, so that healing becomes something we practise, not just pursue.
Through Healing Across Barriers (HAB), I’m developing a framework that supports transformation from the inside out—starting with clinicians, extending to therapeutic spaces, and evolving into community and organisational systems. Whether through education, facilitation, or collaboration, I’m committed to helping shape a future where regulation is recognised not as an intervention—but as the infrastructure for connection, resilience, and change.
