Arabic Therapists in Charlotte, NC
Welcome! I’m glad you’re here. As a Clinical Social Worker and Spiritual Counselor, my mission is to support you in reconnecting with your authentic self by nurturing the whole person: mind, body, spirit, and heart. I believe meaningful, lasting change occurs when healing and growth are approached holistically rather than in fragments. In a world that often encourages constant busyness, disconnection, and pushing through, I offer a different path. Through one-on-one virtual sessions, I provide a safe, compassionate space where you can slow down, reflect deeply, and move forward with clarity, balance, and intention.

I am a psychologist with many years of experience working with teens and adults with emotional difficulties. I believe the key to successful treatment is a good client-therapist match and your motivation to getting help. In terms of therapy style, I use an interactive, collaborative approach - a genuine and warm dialogue between two persons who work together to understand/resolve issues. Also, I view myself as someone who asks questions that motivate you to gain further insight about issues of concern and, when you are ready to make changes, I will give you tools and skills to implement them.

You got the degree, or you're in the middle of earning it. You built the career, or you're grinding toward one. Maybe you made your family proud, or at least that's what it looks like from the outside. But privately? You're exhausted, overwhelmed, angry, griefing, or numb. Too "successful" to complain, too aware to pretend everything's fine. Maybe you're carrying childhood wounds, generational trauma, and work stress all at once, while watching violence hit people who look like you, love like you, pray like you.

Couples and individuals often talk to me when they realize something needs to change. Maybe you’ve been running from overwhelming feelings—grief, fear, anger, shame—and you’re starting to sense they need to be listened to. Maybe you’ve been chasing connection for a long time but only seem to get further from it. Or maybe you’re ready to stop hiding parts of yourself from the people you love, and you want to show up more fully. Whether you come alone or as partners, we can create a space to untangle the painful patterns that keep repeating in your relationships, including the one you have with yourself.

Are you a police officer, chaplain, overseas worker, or youth who has witnessed or experienced traumatic events?
Are you using the gym, sports entertainment, or streaming services to manage stress but know you’re not okay? I can help!
Separation, loss, trauma, or injury due to military service, displacement, or war can impact our relationships and sense of identity. Experiences we can’t make sense of can lead us to feeling isolated and turning to unhealthy coping mechanisms and thought patterns that cause further disconnection. Being from a different or minority culture can exacerbate feelings of loneliness.
