Muslim Therapists in Maineville, OH

Hello, my name is Nour and I'm an intern at Mindfully. I am originally from Egypt and I'm currently completing my masters in mental health counseling from the University of Cincinnati. I am passionate about mental health and fascinated by the power of our mind. I like the paradox that change happens when we accept whatever arises within us at any given moment. I am curious about how you personally experience each moment, what it brings up for you and how you make sense of it.

My journey to becoming your therapist has come with colorful experiences. "Imagine your ideal client. What are their issues, their needs, their goals? What do they want and why?" was the prompt. My ideal client is one that is open to work towards working on their personal goals. Any of their issues, needs, or goals would be of upmost importance. Any issue, diagnoses, or goal will be handled in a fully non-judgmental, culturally competent manner. I began working with vulnerable populations in 2016. Despite receiving my license and master's degree later, I am coming upon eight years of experience in the field. Talk to you soon!

My goal as a Therapist is to provide emotional support while fostering continuous health and wellness in efforts to improve your quality of life. I engage from a place of compassion and care. It is important to me that you feel supported in our work together. I will challenge you to always work toward becoming a better version of yourself.

Life can be overwhelming. We all need some dedicated time to nurture and heal. Why should someone hire a therapist rather than just talk through their problems with a friend or family member? First of all, if you have someone in your life to whom you feel comfortable opening up, that is awesome. Keep doing that. We all need these vital human connections. But a therapist brings something a little different to the table than a best friend.

I received my Master of Education from The Ohio University, specializing in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and Rehabilitation Counseling. I worked at a community mental health center, focusing on behavior modification, anxiety, depression, suicidal ideation, OCD, borderline personality disorder, trauma-related disorders, and dual diagnosis. I’m equally passionate about self-discovery, spiritual exploration, and working with marginalized groups. I emphasize the importance of multicultural competency in my professional and personal life.

I've been practicing for several years. I specialize in helping people overcome tough experiences like trauma, anxiety, and depression, as well as sort through feelings and handle life more smoothly. I've dealt with lots of folks who are juggling multiple issues at once. Our sessions will feel like a friendly conversation aimed at moving you forward! We are open to all, promising a safe and inclusive space! We invite everyone, regardless of their background or abilities, to be their true self. My job is to help you reach your personal healing objectives. We're flexible with schedules and offer both in-person and online sessions.

I am a licensed social worker with over 10 years of experience.

I recently worked in hospice to provide therapeutic intervention to families, individuals, and couples as they work through major life events. I have worked within the hospital systems for oncology, obstetrics, hospice, crisis, and as a case manager providing therapy for a range of complex needs.

I have an undergraduate degree from Charleston Southern University in Sociology and a Masters in Social Work from Wesleyan University.
