I believe there is great value in a curious and non-judgmental exploration of our feelings, thoughts, actions, and relational patterns, in the presence of another person. I value an interactive and collaborative therapeutic relationship, and using creativity, humor, and authenticity within the therapy process. I strive to help my clients increase empathy for themselves and others, strengthen their capacity for making meaningful change, and cope with challenges that arise throughout life.

Are you facing a challenge that feels insurmountable? Feeling isolated and worried that you can't manage it all? Our SelfWorks team has helped many people thrive after extraordinary challenges. Unlike other relationships, the therapeutic one is solely there for you. You are free to talk about whatever is on your mind and not protect the other from your pain, emotions or fears. Our team uses only evidence-based, effective approaches such as mindfulness, trauma-focused CBT and insight-oriented psychodynamic treatments. If you've experienced "bad therapy" before, come to SelfWorks to feel truly helped and cared for.

Hello, I'm Zaina! As a therapist, I aim to create a space to foster introspection, inner child healing, and self-compassion through the collaborative effort of both the therapist and client. My style of treatment focuses on helping clients find patterns in their emotions, thoughts, and beliefs in order to gain insight into their current self. Our work together aims for you to explore how reactions to present-day circumstances may be influenced by past events. I may also implement trauma focused or behavioral approaches that focus on processing, healing, and developing coping skills.

People come to therapy for a wide variety of reasons. Maybe you're feeling overwhelmed, depressed, or anxious. Perhaps you are coping with trauma, trying to make sense of a complicated relationship in your life, or feeling stuck by a lack of change. Whatever the reason, my goal is to create a warm, collaborative, and non-judgmental environment. I use humor, compassion, and supportive challenge to promote healing and foster change. Our sessions will be geared towards helping you make sense of difficult experiences and identifying patterns that don’t serve you.
