As a First Generation, South Asian Muslim Therapist, I'm curious about exploring the unique journeys we each embark on to create a home within ourselves and with others. Especially in ecosystems that have not been designed to support our identities and safety, as yet.

I believe we as humans all have the capacity to achieve our goals and transform into our best version of ourselves, and therapy can be the first step to achieving these goals!
