Arab and Middle Eastern Therapists in Atlanta, GA
I am a 2SLGBTQ+ affirming therapist and work closely with BIPOC. My goal is to provide a safe, direct, and compassionate environment that acknowledges the dignity and worth that is inherent in us all. My hope is that by partnering together we may move towards healing past wounds and work towards inner wellbeing even in the face of adversity. I believe the past is present, which is why I will invite you to target the root of the paint point. I am an egalitarian so I value working collaboratively with clients and am committed to meeting my clients exactly where they are on their journey.

Many people come in feeling overwhelmed by stress, emotional reactivity, or the pressure to meet every expectation perfectly. It’s common to feel stuck in patterns of overthinking, people-pleasing, or guilt around boundaries. There’s often a desire to feel more grounded, communicate with clarity, and respond to challenges with confidence instead of frustration or shame. The hope is to understand what’s happening internally and create meaningful, lasting change in daily life. I help you find that clarity, understand yourself better, communicate effectively, and respond to challenges with intention instead of frustration or shame.

You may be someone others rely on, steady and capable on the outside, while internally feeling anxious, overwhelmed, or stuck in patterns that don’t fully make sense. Even when you try to understand or manage it, something doesn’t fully shift..

I work with pediatric and adult patients, along with their families, who are navigating the immense challenges of chronic illness and major medical life transitions. Many come to me while managing complex diagnoses like sickle cell disease or undergoing organ transplants, often feeling overwhelmed by the psychosocial and emotional weight of these conditions. My approach focuses on providing deep emotional support and crisis intervention. I work with families to navigate healthcare systems, identify critical resources, and build the resilience needed to move forward toward a place of stability

I embrace that therapy is not intended to be a life story, but rather a planned and timely experience for growth which allows my clients to gain skills that will help them succeed far after moving on from therapy.

I believe therapy helps us understand the power of the mind. This is especially useful when we feel disconnected, marginalized, or stigmatized. When we feel this way, learning how the mind channels this information through thoughts, feelings, emotions, and perceptions, can influence us to recognize our own cognitive processes and how they impact our life. If we attend to our cognitive processes in a healthy way, it may lead to regulation of mood, clarity, balance and feelings of peace. We start to evolve and accept certain things about ourselves. We begin to feel at peace from within. I help my clients through this process.

Life can be a lot sometimes—and most of us are really just out here doing our best to keep it together. Still, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed, stuck in patterns that don’t feel great, or disconnected from who you are underneath it all. I work with individuals, couples, and families navigating anxiety, depression, burnout, body image and eating concerns, overwhelming emotions, and relationship dynamics that feel tense or exhausting. Together, we slow things down and make sense of what’s going on.

You’ve done everything expected of you. You pursued success, cared for others, and kept your emotions tucked away. On the outside, you seem fine. On the inside, it feels exhausting. Even with your achievements, a genuine sense of belonging still feels out of reach.
I work with bicultural, high-achieving individuals who carry the heavy weight of expectations from family, work, and themselves. If you feel torn between cultures, pressured to always be the strong one, or stuck in a loop of perfectionism and burnout, you are in the right place.

Are you someone who feels deeply but often struggles to make sense of their inner world? Have you felt stuck in your life, trying to pick up the pieces? You may be navigating a transition, grappling with questions of identity, purpose, or belonging, or feeling disconnected from yourself or others. You've grown tired of feeling this way. Often introspective, you seek more than symptom relief—you want to live with meaning, authenticity, and clarity. Your goals often include understanding the "why" behind your struggles and learning how to embody a more grounded and empowered sense of self. I am here to help with that.

Anxiety, Panic Attacks, Feeling Shaky, Haven't been sleeping, avoiding people. Feelings like you had as a child - most of the time, these are signs of trauma.

And Let EMDR be the resource that can help you find your healing.

My ideal client is someone who feels stuck in cycles of anxiety, OCD, and the co-occurring disorders —overthinking, second-guessing, seeking reassurance, or managing intrusive thoughts. On the outside, they may look high-functioning and capable, but internally they feel exhausted from constant worry, mental rituals, or the pressure to “get it right.” They may struggle with generalized anxiety, social anxiety, panic, or obsessive-compulsive patterns that interfere with relationships, work, or daily life. They often tell themselves, “I should be able to handle this,” yet feel frustrated that logic alone doesn’t quiet their mind.
