Let's Connect (289) 302-5213

I believe in the power of connection and I view healing as relational. My approach emphasizes community, creativity, and play, fostering curiosity and openness, while my client-led stance adapts to each person’s unique needs. When working with children, I regularly collaborate with parents to strengthen relationships; I also support neurodiverse children, including those on the autism spectrum. As a trained art therapist, I often use art and play to create a safe space for verbal and nonverbal expression. No art experience is needed—art is always optional, and simple materials can bring therapeutic benefits!

I recognize how well-being is shaped by context, environment, history, and systemic factors. As an Arab woman, my cultural identity informs my trauma-informed, anti-oppressive approach. Using art, somatic, and breath work, I co-create a safe space that empowers you to reframe challenges and explore new paths to wellness, honouring your unique experiences.

I understand that reaching out for help and deciding who to turn to can be difficult, but I'm happy to answer any questions or curiosities you may have. I warmly invite you to book a session or free 15-min phone consultation on my webpage, to explore whether we’re a good fit. If not, I’m still committed to helping you find the right therapist for your needs.

In our first few sessions, we'll focus on building trust and a safe, supportive relationship. Our co-created sessions will follow a familiar rhythm: First, using a metaphor to check in on where to focus. In the session's heart, we'll explore your goals through discussion, art, or other tools. To close, we'll gently wrap up and ensure boundaries are set, so you leave feeling grounded and secure.
