Hi / Salaam, I'm Maryam — a therapy intern who believes we don't have to be confined to a single story about who we are. Maybe you're navigating the quiet weight of cultural expectations, or trying to understand why the same patterns keep showing up in your relationships. Maybe you're questioning who you are beneath the roles you've played for everyone else. Whatever brings you here, you don't have to make sense of it alone.
I grew up in a bicultural immigrant family, I bring lived understanding of how culture, identity, and intergenerational dynamics shape us. My approach is culturally responsive and anti-oppressive, drawing from narrative, dialogic, and solution-focused therapy. Together, we'll slow down, notice patterns, and reconnect with what feels meaningful to you.
I work with individuals, couples, and families across the lifespan, and I welcome clients from diverse backgrounds and experiences.Clients often describe me as calm, grounded, and easy to talk to. I value authenticity and humour, and I create a space that feels both safe and real. Sessions available in English and Farsi. I'd be honoured to hear your story.
