Muslim Therapists in League City, TX

Are you feeling like life could be more fulfilling, but fear, worry, and sadness seem to be holding you back? You've been on a journey, trying to find peace and happiness independently, and you've carried the weight of your emotions in silence for far too long. You're an empathetic person, deeply connected to your relationships, but sometimes, the emotional toll can feel overwhelming. You've considered seeking professional help, but doubts have held you back. Will your therapist truly understand your unique experiences, your culture, your background, and your upbringing?

Depressive and anxious thoughts do not have to take over your days and keep you from having a peaceful life. From my personal experience as well as research, I can assure you that people do get better and they are able to live a more satisfying and fulfilling life using some basic cognitive and behavioral tools. I had patients tell me: "this is the most peaceful I've ever been", and "I've always known myself as a depressed person, but now it only feels like a bad ankle that I can ignore and live a fulfilling life with". Basic tools of CBT and ACT have helped thousands of people, you can be one too.

As a Muslim woman, I know how difficult it is to find help that both centers my identity and provides quality care. You shouldn't have to compromise being understood in order to get the care you need. My experiences training in and working with the Muslim community has helped me understand and attune to the specific needs of the Muslim American experience. I know the challenges that come with seeking to feel seen and heard and aim to provide a space that is committed to openness and authenticity.

My name is Imane Boulares, and I am a Muslim Arab American. I was raised in California, where I was exposed to various cultures and backgrounds. I am very thankful to that exposure as it taught me how to be accepting and understanding of others from an early age. It has also made me very curious to learn more about other cultures and how it effects day-to-day life and family systems. Furthermore, I received my psychology BA from UT-Austin and my M.Ed. from Lamar University. Working at the different settings has provided me with a diverse experience on different mental health issues with various intensities.

As a first-generation immigrant Muslim woman, I am grateful to offer representation to those who are seeking to improve their mental health. I was raised as the eldest daughter in an immigrant family dynamic and have an extensive understanding of these family systems and how they affect individuals of different birth orders. I have worked with clients of a variety of age ranges, sexual orientations, and cultural backgrounds and pride myself on multicultural awareness and consideration. I hope to help you make steps towards your ideal self by assisting you in building a functional toolbox with tools you can reach for along the way.

It can be scary & frustrating when you don’t feel like yourself & don’t know why you feel this. You’ve tried everything to help with your mood changes, overwhelming feelings of nervousness, guilt and not feeling good enough, but nothing seems to work. It can be scary reaching out to a therapist because you want to find someone who really connects with you. I began my training in 2011 and completed it at The Menninger Clinic. I believe in creating an alliance with my clients. My warm & compassionate demeanor allows me to empathize with my clients, put them at ease & help them open up.

Have you thought about therapy before, but were worried that you'd be misunderstood or judged? Did you grow up in an environment where asking for help was seen as a sign of "weakness"? Do you find yourself not wanting to share your thoughts, feelings, and needs in your relationship because you're worried about "saying the wrong thing" and how your partner will react? Whether you're facing challenges with anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship issues, family dysfunction, addictions, racism, or other obstacles, my goal is to help you discover your strengths, deepen your relationships, and live closer to your most authentic self.

Hello! Congratulations on taking your first step toward self-discovery, healing, and growth! This is a safe space to unmask and simply be human. Seeking support isn't a sign of weakness, it's in fact an act of strength. I welcome your strength to this space and so proud of you for taking care of yourself. As a compassionate multicultural clinician, therapy with me won't just be a response to crisis, I am also here for the laughs, to celebrate milestones, and/or to be just be a listening ear. I provide comprehensive mental health services including counseling and coaching for individuals and groups as well as workplace well-being.

Your emotions feel like they could take up an entire ocean, a burden that feels too heavy to carry. On paper you are compassionate and high achieving, but underneath you feel self-critical, anxious, lonely, or broken. It is hard to trust people and show up as your true self, and your relationships feel overwhelming. Like you’ll make a mistake and lose it all or get too close for people to see the real you. Anxiety prevails in your day to day life, telling you that you have to do things perfectly or else people will find out that you don't actually have it all together.
