You might feel caught between worlds—tired of explaining yourself, of fragmenting who you are to make others comfortable. I work with young adults, children of immigrants, and people navigating queer/religious identity. My clients often feel the weight of being a "model minority", and the loneliness of living between cultures in a place that often erases and devalues BIPOC identity. They might deal with anxiety, depression, PTSD, or relationship/familial/community challenges rooted in these complex intersections. I offer a space built on shared understanding, where no part of your identity feels like a contradiction.
I provide therapy through an intersectional feminist lens, first building a trusting relationship with clients to create a solid foundation for the deeper work. At times I use art as a jumping-off point for conversation. I was raised in Arab Muslim community, and use this experience to create space where context is understood without exhausting explanations.
It takes courage to seek a witness to your story. I believe healing happens in relationship, and you already hold the answers you need. If you're looking for a therapist who honors all parts of your identity while helping you slow down and reconnect with your inner wisdom, I would be happy to work with you.
