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!

Sometimes life may weigh us down with overwhelm, and things may start to feel confusing, lonely, hopeless, or exhausting to the point where you feel trapped or on edge. Often it can feel worse when it's difficult to find someone who understands and can help you through it, making the stress continue to weigh you down and placing you in cycle that feels all too much. Maybe you're not even sure what you're feeling, but you know it's not what you want. Whether it is a relationship issue, life transition, identity crisis, or mental health concern, I aim to work with you to develop strategies for well-being and healing.

Life can be challenging and confusing to navigate; it's okay to ask for help & you don't have to handle it on your own. Regardless of the circumstances that have led you to seek therapy, you have the right to be treated with respect, dignity, and without judgment while exploring and working through where you are now and where you want to be. I am a licensed independent social worker and I have experience working with adolescents, young adults, college students, and adults experiencing a variety of issues. Issues that specialize include substance use/addiction, anxiety, depression, trauma, stress management, life transitions.

Muslim Therapists
Why is it important for a therapist to be culturally sensitive?
A culturally sensitive therapist will be respectful of faith, race, sexual orientation, gender, age, disabilities, or anything that is relevant to an individual’s reasons for seeking therapy. This mental health practitioner will therefore be able to recognize the role of faith in a client’s life, and they can appreciate the cultural values and beliefs of others. Cultural sensitivity on the part of the therapist may enhance the possibility of a strong therapeutic bond, even if the clinician does not have an extensive understanding of a client’s background before therapy begins.
How might I inquire about a therapist's experience with Muslim clients?
It is best to ask directly whether a therapist has worked with Muslim clients, and if so, the extent to which cultural or religious principles factored into their work together. You can also ask whether a therapist who is familiar with Islamic practices, values, and beliefs incorporates them into their professional work, and if so, how. If the therapist does not have a sufficient knowledge base, they may well know and can refer you to someone who has such experience.
What if the therapist does not have my exact background?
It is not necessary for a therapist to share one’s exact religious background for therapy to be successful. A qualified and culturally sensitive therapist will appreciate diversity within the Muslim community as well as diversity overall, and will have a sense of how religious and cultural issues can contribute to mental health. In addition, a good therapist would be willing to learn from their clients.
How do I recognize an effective Muslim therapist?
Like all therapists, a Muslim therapist who is effective will have the requisite training and expertise in evidence-based techniques, as well as the ability to connect with you on a personal level. An effective Muslim therapist may also demonstrate a clear understanding of your cultural background and faith. A therapist with such cultural sensitivity will set the stage for a strong therapeutic alliance.
Who is included in Psychology Today's directory of the Muslim faith?
The directory of Muslim therapists includes mental health providers who have shared their cultural background in their profiles. Psychology Today uses this information to assist clients in finding a therapist with a similar background. However, not all therapists choose to disclose this information, and they may not appear in search results for this reason. When the number of therapists identified as Muslim is limited, the directory will also show therapists with extensive experience working with clients from relevant backgrounds.
