My website
I am an EMDR and Neurofeedback-trained Licensed Professional Counselor. I have experience working with individuals, families, teens, and adolescents. I am bilingual in English and Arabic. My approach in therapy is existential and person-centered oriented. I like to take my time to listen and challenge a client’s thoughts so that we can expand on self-awareness. I am also a board-approved supervisor for therapists working towards independent licensure.
I have worked with eating disorders, anxiety, depression, and trauma. I like to focus on the challenges an individual faces and on finding appropriate coping skills to support emotional regulation.
I believe that the relationship built in therapy is important to the healing process. My goal is to help guide you in a collaborative and supportive relationship towards recovery and self-discovery.

I work with clients who may be struggling with depression or trauma related to their relationships or family. During our initial sessions, we will delve deeply into the issues at hand, and collaborate to create a plan for addressing them in a way that helps you get your life back. Most of my clients see a gradual lifting of symptoms within the first month and sustained improvement thereafter.
