Is your inner spark fading away these days? Have you survived abuse of any kind? Are you struggling to escape a painful past? Do relationship strains affect you dearly? "Trauma is a fact of life. It does not, however, have to be a life sentence." - Peter Levine. Identifying as a person of color and an immigrant who has experienced my own share of mental health and trauma struggles, I value the importance of a non-judgmental, safe space in order to identify that you are more than your past traumatic experiences. I have a deeper commitment towards the person as a whole, rather than just addressing the symptoms.

Therapy is a space for you to explore the events and issues that are affecting you. To build hope and reinforce your desire for change and growth.

We will work together to address your current struggles— whether it be anxiety, depression, grief, loss, issues related to identity, self-worth, relationships, intimacy, boundaries, and navigating difficult life transitions.

At different points in our lives, we can feel like we're drowning. Anxiety and depression can leave us feeling helpless. We can experience hurt and anger from our relationships that cause us to withdraw. I know what it’s like to experience debilitating sadness, hopelessness, anxiety, relational conflict, grief and trauma and I can help. I have found from evidence based treatments, that how we behave and think, often reflects the story we've chosen to believe for ourselves and others. When we gain a greater awareness of ourselves and the deep meanings we attach to our stories, there is no solution that is out of reach.

TELETHERAPY only at this time. Sometimes life serves up more pain than we can bear. Sometimes we're just ready for change. Anger, anxiety, sadness, resentment, shame, loneliness, and guilt are just a few feelings that can weigh us down and rob us of the life we want. We all do the best we can to survive, but we don't have to do it alone. I will be actively engaged with guidance and support as you work through what troubles you. I won't have all the answers, but I do have the tools, experience, and commitment to help you find your own.

Are you Muslim, or other ethnic minority who is being treated unfairly because of your race, religion, or sexuality? Has poor treatment led you to feel frustrated, angry, anxious, lonely, or isolated? Perhaps you have been self-medicating to calm your nerves or help you sleep. If so, that is understandable. You might not speak up for fear of being misunderstood, appearing hostile, losing friendships, or your job. This can take a toll on your health and emotions. I understand this struggle and will help empower you both in your personal and professional life.

"How can therapy help me? What can you tell me that I don’t already know?”- these are ideas that are fairly common for many people considering therapy. After all, society tells us that “emotions are yucky” and can be difficult to face- so what can therapy do for you that will actually benefit you? I believe that therapy is not about the therapist “telling you” about yourself, but is instead to explore what is holding you back from reaching your full potential.

Has a major transition or trauma triggered your nervous system, caused anxiety, depression, and emotional dyregulation, or negatively impacted the relationships you care about the most?

I truly believe that help begins by reaching out, and I'm glad you're here! I invite you to call or text me for a free consultation.

Sometimes we struggle with loneliness, insecurity, and building relationships. The desire to connect is there but because of anxiety about being too vulnerable with people, it becomes too risky; it feels like your safety and comfort is at stake. The cycle of wanting more connection, yet being uncomfortable with deeper connection can take it's toll on you. Symptoms like depression, irritability, isolation, and low self-esteem can creep in and negatively affect your productivity, sleep, and physical health.

Do you feel that your life hasn't started yet? Are you living in the past or for the future? You've been working hard to get where you are, however, do you still feel something missing in your life?
