As a queer Black Arab immigrant, I recognize the importance of how social identities can have a great impact on someone's mental health. Even navigating the mental health system can be exhausting and at times disappointing.

I assist people in the healing of their trauma and processing difficult experiences as they navigate living in a society that is in itself in need of healing. I am passionate about my work and love being present with my clients through their journey of healing and self-discovery.

Are you feeling stuck in old patterns of behavior that you know aren’t working for you? Perhaps you find that the way you’ve been showing up in your workplace, with your family, or with your friends hasn’t been effective or rewarding. A nagging insecurity keeps you from taking risks and being vulnerable with those you love. Or a need for control paralyzes your openness to growth and change. We all have blind spots that get in our own way - beliefs we have about ourselves, others, and the world that become self-fulfilling prophesies for our lives.

The decision to seek help is the first step in creating the life you have always envisioned.
