I am a second generation Syrian-American and Arabic speaking, Licensed Mental Health Counselor based in Brooklyn, New York. I lead with curiosity. My approach is holistic, eclectic, client-centered, and collaborative. I integrate trauma and somatic informed modalities, mindfulness-based practices, and Internal Family Systems (IFS) or parts-work to support individuals with noticing patterns and making choices to live more liberated lives. I believe that all humans have the capacity to rewire their brains, reframe narratives, heal and connect with their most joyful and authentic selves.

I have worked overseas with refugees and low-income families and am a bilingual Arabic-speaking therapist.
Parenting is hard and children can be complex. Wouldn’t it be nice if on the day that you finally take your baby home from the hospital you were given a booklet on everything you need to know? How to raise your child, how to help children through worry and anxiety, stress, life transitions, and how to handle small and large traumas that may occur along the way? Unfortunately, many families find themselves at a loss, but I am here to help.

I am happy to see you via video sessions (only) during this time. My name is Hebah (pronounced Hib-a), and I am excited you found my profile. Therapy is about discussing your problems, but that’s only the beginning. When you develop a relationship with an empathic, attuned therapist, you will find your inherent strength, heal old emotional wounds, discover new ways to solve problems and change how you live your life. I am a bilingual (English/Arabic) therapist with over ten years of psychotherapy experience. I use a straightforward, gentle, respectful, non-blaming, culturally sensitive approach to counseling.

New York, NY 10012 (Online Only)
I am familiar with Middle Eastern cultures and can offer a hybrid of Arabic and English therapy.
You feel alone, misunderstood and anxious about showing up as your full, authentic self. You feel emotionally disconnected from loved ones because they don’t get you anymore. Or maybe they never did. You find yourself searching for meaning in life while trying to understand who you are and where you belong. You feel lost and terrified. Those around you don’t understand, nor do they see how much you’re struggling. You’ve become good at hiding how you really feel. Sometimes you feel others may be better off without you. You're close to giving up, but you want to make a change. You long to be understood and accepted, and to belong.

Life comes with surprises and challenges, and everyone needs some support along the way. One of the bravest things you can do is seek help to improve your mental health and understand yourself better. Together, we’ll enhance your well-being, making attainable and lasting changes in your life. Born in NYC to an Egyptian-American family, I draw from this dualistic heritage. As a lifelong violinist and oudist, music serves as an emotional bridge and healing power for me. I returned to Columbia University for a clinical MSW to translate the universal language of emotion and connect individuals to their deepest feelings.

As we make our way through life, we are often forced to give up parts of ourselves in order to survive and belong. Many of our defenses, developed early on, may hinder our wholeness as adults while contributing to a sense of “stuckness.” I believe that we are innately wired for healing, and that provided with a safe environment our healing capacity is activated as we listen to, feel, and process our core emotions. Emotions carry our stories, and when not processed properly can lodge themselves in our bodies and manifest in various unhealthy ways.

The home we seek to settle and belong is the inner home, the light we chase to enlighten our life is the inner light, and the journey we yearn to take for expansion and growth is the inner journey, all to meet the “most important person we will ever meet,” our true self. Each person’s inner journey toward healing and growth is unique. My role as a psychotherapist is to stand with you and help you, as you take steps towards a journey of self-healing and growth. A journey which may call for your courage, vulnerability, and discomfort, but it holds treasures of reintegration, expansion, transformation, and liberation.
