Being a Muslim American and a daughter of Lebanese immigrants, I am very passionate about serving the community and making mental health services more accessible and catered towards diverse cultural backgrounds. The way I view mental health struggles is via relationships: our relationships with ourselves, our families, our social circles, our cultural worlds, and our contexts. All these relationships have an impact on the stories we tell about ourselves and the identities we create from them, all of which impact our well-being.

Anxiety can present itself in several different ways. To some, it can come off as a feeling of absolute overwhelm whereas others may experience it as a restless never-ending panic. In fact, some have found that making that first call to begin therapy can be a source of anxiety in of itself! Together, we can collaborate to uncover the sources of anxiety by exploring childhood experiences, memories that have shaped us and current day to day stressors. My goal is to provide you with tangible mindfulness skills such as breathing and grounding exercises to support you when feeling overwhelmed or triggered by life events.

Working with a therapist is about compassion, vulnerability, and processing trauma; it can also be about pushing yourself towards growth, creating change, and evolving into who you want to be. I would love to work with you to identify areas of potential and develop a path to success. Were you ever told “you ask a lot of questions” as a child? I definitely was! This childhood curiosity matured into a desire to understand others. I would love to hear your story. How we speak about ourselves, our lives, that forms our reality. Let’s work together to create the reality you would like to have.

Hello, I'm a licensed clinical psychologist working with adults in individual and couple's therapy. If you struggle with adjusting to a new phase of life, a new career or living in Southern California, you are not alone. Sometimes people can feel anxious or empty inside even though on the outside, their lives are looking fine. You've tried to hide those sad and lonely feelings from your friends and family, but feeling disconnected from those that you want to be close with is painful. You've noticed doing all kinds of things to not feel out of control.

How can I find a therapist in Cortez Hill, San Diego?

Search for nearby therapists or counselors by inputting your city, town, or suburb; or zip code; or a provider’s name into the search bar.

To navigate between locations within the same country, enter a new city or zip code into the search bar.

Learn more about how to find a therapist.

Is online therapy a good option?

Therapy conducted online or over the phone can be just as effective as in-person therapy, as long as there is a strong alliance between the client and the therapist. To find a therapist who provides telehealth services to clients in your area, click “Online Therapy” on the directory homepage and search by your city or town or your zip code.

What’s the difference between a psychologist, a therapist, and a counselor?

Therapists, psychologists, and counselors are all licensed mental health professionals. In the United States, psychologists have earned a doctoral degree. The terms “therapist” and “counselor” are used somewhat interchangeably, but generally therapists offer longer-term, mental health care, while counselors offer shorter-term care that may focus on one domain, such as marriage, career, or academic challenges.

What type of therapist is right for me?

Clients should consider factors such as insurance coverage and their primary reason(s) for seeking therapy to determine the type of professional best suited to their needs. Someone struggling with mental health challenges such as depression or anxiety, for example, may wish to seek out a clinical psychologist, psychologist or therapist, while someone navigating career obstacles or marital upheaval may benefit from seeing a counselor who can offer short-term, targeted support.

Is everyone in the Psychology Today Therapy Directory a licensed therapist?

The Psychology Today directory lists providers who offer legitimate mental health services to the public, including psychologists, psychiatrists, social workers, and counselors. Many have been licensed by the country or state where they practice; providers whose license or primary credential has been verified by Psychology Today are signified by a “Verified” symbol. Some clinicians or organizations provide services for which their state or country does not offer licenses, such as pastoral counseling. They may be selectively included without the “Verified” seal.

What type of therapy is right for me?

The type of therapy best suited to a particular individual depends on several factors, including their primary reason for seeking therapy, their preferred timeline (some therapy types last for a set number of sessions, while others are open-ended), and their personality and preferences—some may prefer a more structured approach. For many individuals, multiple types of therapy could provide a good fit.

Is online therapy cheaper than in-person therapy?

Many therapists charge the same amount for online therapy as they do for in-person therapy—though clients may still find this cost-effective if it cuts down on their transportation costs. Health insurance plans often offer equivalent coverage for online and in-person therapy; indeed, in many places, they are legally required to do so. Text-based or on-demand therapy apps may be cheaper than traditional one-on-one psychotherapy; however, the practice may be less effective and is not likely to be covered by insurance.
