About Dr. Azi Khatiri
I started working with trainee doctors by word of mouth, and through associate work that brought referrals from deaneries. The more doctors I worked with, the more I recognised how acute their problems were, and how much difference the right kind of support could make.
There's a real gap between the level of need and what's actually available to make a tangible difference, not just a space to talk about the problem, but something that actually shifts it.
That's why I now work with medics specifically. I know this population, I know the specific pressures they're under, and I know what this work can do for them.
My own background as a scientist means I understand how doctors think: highly analytical, evidence-led, sceptical. I think the same way, which is exactly why I enjoy working with them.

The approach I use is called Clean Language, a questioning method developed by psychotherapist David Grove to help people explore their inner experience without adding any ideas, assumptions or suggestions from the coach.
This is a person-centred, holistic approach that fully respects the client and their unique experience. The questions direct attention to aspects of your experience so that new insight and understanding can emerge and change can happen.
