I love what I do! It's more than a job it's a passion. It's about feeling privileged to being a part of your dreams, your fears, and the getting to know all of you, the good the bad, and all those hidden parts that you may not like. I welcome the whole of you, flaws and all. I will be here to cheer for your successes or be compassionately present for those dark moments.

Things have a way of not working out the way they we thought they would. The stories of our lives begin in the families we are given with all of their foibles and experiences. Pages that become chapters of pain, trauma or loss can engulf the one that feels trapped in the narrative. After a plot twist of epic proportions, I left a 16-year career in the intelligence community and began a new chapter. I’ve had to confront the sources, rewrite the narrative, consult the author and find myself in the pages. The refinement process can be a horrific one but in the truth, freedom is found. Together, we can find healing.

Have you experienced trauma? Do you worry excessively? Are you depressed? Has a loved one died and the loss is too much to handle? Do you avoid people & places because you're afraid? Are you dealing with issues around your sexuality & gender? Do you sense that something's "just not right" with your world, but you cannot put your finger on it? *If you answered "yes" to any of these questions, maybe it's time to try therapy?

I enjoy working with children, adolescents, and families. Most of my experience has been with Anxiety, Bipolar Disorder, Depression & Stress. I believe it is important for me to have a collaborative professional relationship with each client so that we can collectively meet the client's needs.

I help people break cycles and patterns that no longer serve them so that they can live a life that aligns with their values.

I use a trauma informed systems approach to help you unpack, unlearn, and heal. I have additional expertise treating adults with ADHD.

Hi there, I'm Myra, Life takes turns we don't expect, and sometimes we’re able to get through them. Other times we become stuck.

Society is confusing. You're neurodivergent and/or queer trying to figure out how to exist while a part of a world that pushes for "one size fits all." You're torn between wanting to "get it right" and rejecting the rigid boxes dominant culture wants you in. People's reactions make you question if you did the right thing when placing boundaries or making a request. Or... You're a parent trying to determine what's best for your child. They have big feelings and behaviors. Where do you start? You've learned from "experts" which emotions are correct at certain times which doesn't sit quite right when helping your kid.

Together we can work to help you make meaningful, long-term changes in a safe, confidential, and non-judgemental environment.

"The problem is not the problem. The problem is your attitude about the problem." Are you tired of pretending "everything's fine", when it's not? Real men embrace vulnerability, honesty & courage. It takes guts to ask for help & face struggles head-on. It takes strength to open up & true bravery to take action for lasting change. We often hit a wall in life & reach a turning point – a bridge we need to cross. Are you looking for a therapist who is real and genuine & can guide you across? As we embark on this transformative journey, I will be here to support you every step of the way, empowering you to unlock your true potential.

Do you feel overwhelmed or stuck, like no one truly understands you? If your values and beliefs are making it tough to find the support you need, you're not alone. Your background is an important part of who you, and you need a therapist who gets that. I specialize in understanding the unique challenges that South Asian and American Muslim communities encounter. Together, let's navigate life's obstacles in a safe and nurturing environment, allowing you to both be your authentic self and develop the skills you need to achieve your goals.

It can be difficult to open up and talk about your life stressors to someone you don’t know. Sometimes we can feel unheard or alone and just need someone who can be a helping, nonjudgmental, and listening ear. The hardest part can be finding the words to express ourselves and process what can feel like a jumbled mess and you just need someone to help put the scattered puzzle pieces together to create a beautiful picture. Aristotle said it best, “Knowing yourself is the beginning of all wisdom.” I can help with building coping skills, work on effective communication, self-expression, processing trauma/grief, and mindfulness.
