Book a consultation with me now by clicking the "Email me" button on the right! - As a Pakistani-American Muslim woman, my overlapping identities enable me to work with a variety of clients. I approach therapy with a culturally aware, faith-based, anti-oppressive and strengths-based lens, allowing clients to reach deep within themselves to explore their hidden potential and build upon healthy coping skills and resources to break self-destructive patterns. I aim for humility and open-mindedness; clients will find me equally supportive while gently challenging and redirecting them where necessary.
I aspire toward a model called "decolonial therapy", which sits at the crossroads of the psychological, political, ancestral, and collective, and is accessible while offering a path to liberation and healing. If you have financial barriers to therapy, let's chat! My commitment is to work with you despite those barriers and find a way forward for us both.
I am proud to work with many students, young professionals, and young adults, especially those who are trying therapy out for the first time, or are switching over from a therapist they may not have connected well with. Click the "E-mail me" button on the right to schedule a free 15-minute phone consultation within 48 hours to see if we are a good fit!
