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.

Sometimes life unfolds in ways we never expected. The losses, stressors, and suffering we face can leave us feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or unsure of how to move forward. At times, we may not fully understand what we are carrying or grieving but we can feel its weight. Therapy offers an opportunity to make sense of these experiences and reconnect with yourself, others, and what matters most. I work with individuals navigating grief, anxiety, trauma, depression, life transitions, relationship challenges, emotional overwhelm, oppression, and questions of identity and purpose.

I am currently accepting new clients in North Carolina, South Carolina, and Pennsylvania. You may be someone others see as strong, successful, and composed. Internally, you feel overwhelmed, anxious, disconnected, or emotionally exhausted, carrying the weight of your career, relationships, and family while still showing up for everyone else. High-functioning doesn't mean you're not hurting. Often the people who seem the most capable are the ones who've learned to survive without asking for help.

I help individuals who look capable on the outside but feel anxious, self-critical, or stuck underneath. You may overthink decisions, replay conversations, put pressure on yourself to get things right, or notice the same relationship patterns repeating: people-pleasing, pulling away, fear of disappointing others, or difficulty feeling secure. I work especially well with people who are thoughtful and self-aware, but find that insight alone hasn't created the change they want.

You’ve worked hard to build the career and life you have today. To others you look accomplished, capable, and dependable, but on the inside you feel drained, emotionally and physically tired from life’s demands. The pressure to always perform has left you stuck in cycles of over-functioning, perfectionism, and people-pleasing. Everyone counts on you, but you feel more disconnected from yourself, unsure of who you are outside of responsibilities, and the never-ending daily grind. You’re tired of just pushing through and surviving. You want to get back in touch with what you want and need from life.

FAQ - About Muslim Counseling
What can a Muslim therapist help with?
Muslim therapists can help you with the same range of mental health concerns that any qualified therapist can, including anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, life transitions, relationship challenges, and family conflict. They can support you in developing coping skills, communication strategies, and improving self-esteem. If you are Muslim, seeing a therapist who personally identifies as Muslim may be especially helpful when your mental health concerns intersect with your faith, culture, or identity. Topics that may be especially relevant to discuss with a therapist who shares your background include navigating discrimination, family expectations, gender norms, marriage expectations, religious questioning, or feeling disconnected from your faith or community.
Why might faith context matter in therapy for Muslim clients?
A therapist who understands Islamic beliefs may be better able to recognize how spirituality and religious observance affect your life. In some cases, a therapist may directly incorporate faith into therapy, which may be described as Islamic counseling, and is used alongside other types of mental health support. A shared faith context may also strengthen the therapeutic alliance since you may find more trust with a therapist who understands your background. At the same time, you and your therapist do not need to share the same faith or cultural background to work together effectively. Many therapists who are not Muslim can still provide culturally responsive care if they approach your beliefs, practices, and experiences with respect and humility, rather than making assumptions or dismissing the role of faith or culture.
How can a Muslim therapist support couples counseling or family therapy?
A Muslim therapist can support couples counseling, family therapy, and marriage counseling for concerns such as communication challenges, conflict, parenting, intimacy, life transitions, and extended family stress. For example, Muslim marriage counseling may help a couple navigate disagreements about religious practices or managing expectations from extended family. For Muslim couples or families, therapy may include discussion of how Islamic values or community norms shape relationships. Therapy may be especially helpful when partners or family members have different expectations around marriage, gender roles, parenting, caregiving, or religious practice. Depending on your preferences, a Muslim therapist may incorporate faith-informed discussion alongside traditional therapy approaches, such as communication skills, emotional regulation strategies, and conflict-resolution techniques.
How might I inquire about a therapist's experience working with Muslim clients?
If faith or cultural background is important to you in therapy, it can be helpful to ask a prospective therapist whether they have experience working with Muslim clients. In initial conversations with potential therapists, you might ask questions such as, “Have you worked with Muslim clients before?” or “How do you approach conversations about faith in therapy?” If a specific branch or tradition of Islam is important to you, you may also ask whether they have experience with your specific community, such as Sunni, Shia, or another Muslim community. As sessions begin, it can be helpful to notice how the therapist responds to your concerns. A good therapist should respond with respect, curiosity, and cultural humility. If you feel dismissed, misunderstood, or find yourself having to explain your beliefs or cultural context constantly, it may be worth considering another therapist.
Who is included in Psychology Today's directory of Muslim therapists?
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.
