Culturally Sensitive Therapists in 98922

Everyone faces challenges in life that are difficult to overcome without help. Counseling provides the opportunity for growth and self-discovery in the context of a safe, supportive, and therapeutic environment. I use a variety of counseling techniques that are determined by your needs. Together, we will assess your strengths, acknowledge challenges and discover strategies that will work for you. In so doing, we will formulate a treatment plan and continually evaluate our work as we progress. Treatment is provided within a community-based model, taking into account your culture, gender, ethnicity, sexual orientation, religion, and personal values.

I am an Arab-American, licensed psychologist serving clients in Ellensburg as well as throughout the State of Washington using telehealth. Together we can come up with your goals for therapy, promoting insight into the issues that brought you here as well as creating lasting change in your life, according to what you value most. My style as a therapist is grounded in empathy, curiosity, and honesty, along with a splash of humor.

Do you feel overwhelmed by persistent worry, stress, or sadness, or hijacked by past trauma? Or maybe you struggle with shame and low self-esteem, feeling stuck in painful relationships and life circumstances. I strive to be a safe, empathic and non-judgmental listener and source of support. I help clients engage in self-exploration, identify their unique patterns and strengths, develop self-compassion and confidence, face their fears, change their reactions, and experience greater freedom and peace. My clients experience healing from trauma, adverse life events, relationship issues and anxiety.

Life can be hard. It can be helpful to have someone to talk to while working through a challenging issue, in order to continue growing and developing as a person or in relationship with another. Together, we can explore new ways to approach your concerns, look deeper for underlying causes and meaning, brainstorm realistic ways to begin making changes, stay motivated, and practice holding on less tightly to those aspects of life that are out of one's control. I offer nearly 20 years of experience helping a diverse variety of people, from under three years old to over 80 years old.

Are you looking for a therapist who will listen with compassion and without judgement, and who will teach you effective practical tools for your problems? An outside, neutral person to help you find a new perspective?
