I believe that building a solid relationship is a key component of a positive therapy experience. I use a person-centered approach to create a safe, inclusive, and welcoming environment for each person to share their unique story. I work regularly with the LGBTQAI community and feel strongly about keeping this a safe space for all.

I have a passion for working with college students/young adults, helping you to work through life transitions, and am constantly working towards destigmatizing sex and the like topics. People universally want to feel heard, understood, and seen, and I aim to provide this for each person.

My goal is to provide a safe, comfortable and non-judgmental environment that allows people to heal, grow and make positive change in their lives. I strongly believe in the healing power of therapy. I can help you identify the barriers that are getting in your way and provide the tools needed to overcome them.

I specialize in improving the lives of teens, young adults, adults and families. I have experience with depression, anxiety, eating disorders, body image, trauma, self-esteem, relationships, parenting, and social skills development.

You’re driven, capable, and often seen as “doing fine”—even when you feel overwhelmed inside. Maybe anxiety is showing up before tests, games, or social situations. Maybe you’re questioning who you are outside of school, your sport, or others' expectations. I work with preteens, teens, and young adults to slow down, manage anxiety, build confidence, and reconnect with what matters. You don’t have to do it all alone—and you don’t have to have it all figured out.

My approach is warm, direct, and strengths-based. I lead with empathy while also holding space for accountability. We’ll build on what’s working, explore what’s getting in the way, and take practical steps toward change so you can move forward with more clarity, confidence, and self-trust.

I just elected a membership with Association for Social Work in Sport (ASWIS). This is a Professional Member of the Association for Social Work in Sport (ASWIS), a national organization dedicated to advancing mental health care for athletes.

Thank you for advocating for yourself and/or your relationship—it's a brave and vulnerable step. Sometimes life gets in the way of our growth. Sometimes our past casts long shadows into the present. And sometimes, it's the fear of the future that keeps us stuck. My experience includes working with children, individuals, couples, and families. I offer a non-judgmental and supportive space to talk through what’s been on your mind, what’s been worrying you, or what you’d like to change. I’m a person of color, fluent in Arabic and English, and committed to creating a welcoming space for people from all walks of life.

I take a person-centered, experiential approach—meaning our time together is focused on you. I believe each person is unique: I’m interested in your values, early experiences, cultural background, and how all of these influence your relationships and decisions today.

Whether you're feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or simply trying to understand yourself better, I'm here to support you. I’m especially attuned to the unique challenges that can come with navigating multiple cultural identities, inter-generational expectations, or the pressure to appear strong while feeling stuck inside.

Many folks seek therapy due to a disconnection: from themselves, others, or community. During therapy, I support your identification of relationship patterns, offer feedback on your relationship style, and hold space for you to practice different relational approaches. I can also incorporate interventions that are cognitive (focus on thoughts), behavioral (action-based), or emotional (name, express, and be with feelings), depending on your personal needs.

Therapy is about change, and change can be scary. With humor, compassion, understanding, and belief in your capacity, I can help you explore what types of change might help you most.

I am passionate about helping individuals and couples navigate the complexities of relationships and attachment. Utilizing attachment theory, relational dynamics, and some CBT, I will guide you in understanding how your past influences your present connections. My approach is rooted in empathy and collaboration, creating a safe space for you to explore your feelings, patterns, and behaviors. I believe that healing begins with awareness and that building strong, secure relationships is essential for our mental well-being. Together, we will work to identify attachment styles, challenge thought patterns, and foster deeper connections.

My areas of interest include anxiety, depression, relationship issues, self-esteem, and trauma. I enjoy working with young adults, adults, and couples. For couples interested in pre-marital/pre-commitment work, I am certified as a Prepare/Enrich facilitator and can provide an assessment and feedback sessions.

I believe that the foundation of growth begins within the relationship between individual and therapist. The desire to feel seen, heard, and understood is universal and is an essential part of our overall well-being. I celebrate the courage of individuals who take steps into healing by engaging in the therapeutic process to manifest the life they desire. I am passionate about working together to ensure that you become an expert on yourself and believe in your own insight, strength, and self awareness. I believe that humor and laughter bring out our authentic selves and utilize this philosophy in my work.

For the past 20+ years I've had the opportunity to work with individuals from diverse backgrounds. I have a special interest in women's issues, PTSD and trauma, and healthy relationships. Other specialty areas include depression, anxiety, ADHD, and social anxiety. Asking for help does not always come easy, and I am willing and able to meet you where you are.

I take a warm, curious approach to understanding you and the roots of your suffering. Together, we’ll explore not only what you’re experiencing, but why, so you can better understand yourself and navigate your life with more clarity and confidence. I’m a natural “dot connector”—almost forensic in how I help piece together the ways your history, relationships, beliefs, and experiences intersect and shape the present.

I work extensively with trauma (both recent and historical), relationship challenges, and substance use concerns. My goal is to help you feel truly seen, understood, and supported as we build a healing path that is both informed and deeply personal to you. Wherever you’re starting from, we’ll walk the path of understanding and healing together.

My pronouns are they/them. I have extensive experience supporting clients within the LGBTQIA+ community as well as those outside of it, and I strive to offer an affirming, knowledgeable environment for people of all identities and backgrounds.

I am dual-licensed to address both mental health and substance abuse. My approach uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, EMDR, mindfulness techniques and person-centered approaches that have been shown to be highly effective for treating a multitude of concerns. I believe that by increasing conscious awareness, clients can be empowered to change their lives. I enjoy working with adults, adolescents, and families.

Some areas that I focus on include trauma and post-traumatic stress, depression, anxiety, panic, boundary and relationship issues, chemical dependency and relapse prevention, behavioral addictions, mood disorders, ADHD and anger management.

I have a true passion for helping people of all ages build on their inner strengths and break free from negative thought and behavior patterns that get in the way of living a healthy balanced life. I use an integrative framework, drawing from EMDR, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and other treatment approaches, tailored to meet each person where they are in their own unique journey towards growth and healing.

I work with ages 18 and up, and have a special interest in anxiety disorders, grief, and trauma treatment. My top priority is to ensure effective therapeutic treatment, while providing a compassionate, trusting, and non-judgmental environment for everyone.
