A practice built on two decades of trust
I am Dr. Mubarak Nawaz, a clinical psychologist, nutritionist, and life coach with a professional journey that began in 1999. My work is rooted in a deep fascination with the human mind, the body's innate capacity for healing, and the extraordinary potential within every individual to grow, transform, and become their highest version.
My doctoral research explored the mind–body connection, particularly how the mind influences the body in the context of weight. This inquiry continues to shape my work and reinforces my belief that lasting physical transformation often requires us to look beyond the physical body and understand the thoughts, emotions, beliefs, and behavioural patterns that influence it.
My academic foundation includes a PhD in the psychology of weight management and three master's degrees in Nutrition, Counselling Psychology, and Clinical Psychology. This multidisciplinary background enables me to approach human wellbeing through an integrated understanding of psychological processes, nutritional science, and behavioural change.
I have also been associated with St. Francis College, Mehdipatnam, Hyderabad, where I taught and designed and facilitated the Postgraduate Diploma in Psychological Counselling Skills. This experience strengthened my commitment to psychological education, professional development, and the transformative power of counselling.
My clinical experience includes associations with Femina Hospital, Banjara Hills; Oxygen Centre for Rehabilitation, Banjara Hills, associated with Dr. Zia Nadeem; and SPINE, Jubilee Hills. These experiences have enriched my understanding of the complex relationship between physical health, psychological wellbeing, and the healing process.
For over 26 years, I have also maintained my independent clinical practice, working closely with individuals through deeply personal journeys of psychological healing, lifestyle transformation, and self-discovery.
“I do not believe you need to become someone else. I believe you need the opportunity to uncover the best of who you already are.”— Dr. Mubarak Nawaz
The Path to Here
Her own journey
The mighty oak was once a little acorn.
Welcome aboard, Hi! I'm Mubarak your holistic coach. Ever since I was young, I knew I wanted to get into a career that would make a difference in people's lives. This interest led me to pursue psychological science. Later I ventured into multiple transformative modules like; Law of Attraction, Heal Your Life, NLP, and Art therapy. Eventually, I created a functional model that translated to transformation every single time.
With an extensive experience of 2 decades in teaching, research, hypnosis, and private consultation, I'm pleased to share my documented success rate of 95% reversal of lifestyle disorders in patients. My confidence stems from my first-hand experience with patients and my Ph.D. in lifestyle disorders and triple Masters in psychology, psychotherapy, and nutrition backing my elective approach.
Over the years, my passion for understanding people has evolved into a commitment to working with the mind, body, and soul as interconnected dimensions of the human experience.
At LIGHT ALCHEMY, I follow a holistic, integrative approach that recognises that no individual can be understood through a single dimension alone. Our physical health, emotional experiences, thought patterns, beliefs, relationships, habits, and inner world are deeply interconnected.
Whether the goal is weight management, emotional healing, healthier relationships, freedom from self-sabotaging patterns, or a deeper sense of purpose, I seek to understand the person beneath the presenting concern.
My work is not simply about addressing symptoms or changing behaviours. It is about exploring what may be inhibiting growth, bringing awareness to patterns that no longer serve us, and creating the conditions in which meaningful, sustainable change can emerge.
I believe that every human being is organically designed to grow, evolve, and move towards their highest potential.
Sometimes, this natural process is obscured by limiting beliefs, unresolved emotional experiences, conditioned responses, stress, or patterns that we have carried for years without fully understanding them.
I see my role not as someone who changes people, but as someone who facilitates the process of uncovering what stands in the way of their growth.
Through awareness, psychological insight, nutritional guidance, behavioural transformation, and deeper inner work, I help individuals reconnect with their inherent capacity to heal, make conscious choices, and create lasting change.
The transformation, ultimately, belongs to them.
I love what I do. Passionately.
There is something profoundly meaningful about witnessing a person move from confusion to clarity, from self-criticism to self-acceptance, from feeling stuck to recognising their own possibilities.
For me, this work goes beyond professional practice. It is a commitment to helping people experience a more peaceful relationship with themselves, their bodies, their relationships, and their lives.
My deepest wish is for every soul to experience the peace, freedom, and fulfilment they deserve.
