You may be feeling stuck in a relationship pattern that keeps repeating, navigating parenting or family challenges, or trying to make sense of anxiety, intrusive thoughts, or emotional reactivity that feels hard to manage. I work with couples, children, and adults who want greater clarity, connection, and flexibility, whether that means improving a relationship, supporting a child, or responding differently to anxiety and stressors within the context of real life and family systems.

Therapy isn’t about fixing who you are; it’s about understanding yourself more deeply and creating space for the life you want to live. You may find yourself overthinking, feeling emotionally exhausted, making sense of a previous or existing diagnosis, experiencing new or unfamiliar symptoms, navigating a season of change, or sensing that something in your life no longer feels right. Therapy offers a space to slow down, explore what’s beneath the surface, and gain clarity about yourself and the patterns shaping your life. Together, we’ll work toward meaningful change with greater confidence, intention, and self-understanding.

Chicago, IL 60614
As Gabor Maté says, “Healing begins when we stop asking what’s wrong with us and start asking what happened to us.” I believe mental health is deeply connected to our ability to feel all the complexities of being human- the joy, grief, anger, fear, and everything in between. Our suffering often arises not from the emotions themselves, but from the ways we suppress or disconnect from them. As someone who comes from a Middle Eastern background and has lived the experience of immigration, I also understand how identity, culture, displacement, and belonging can shape our emotional world in profound ways.
