My primary goal is to support and empower my clients as they grow into the strongest versions of themselves. Rather than limiting counseling to the idea of “fixing a problem”, I take a more holistic approach. Our identity and worldview are a culmination of our life’s experiences. Understanding how we operate can allow us to identify and overcome obstacles that stand in the way of becoming our most authentic selves.
I am the expert on counseling, but you are the expert on your life. My job is to guide and support you as you work towards becoming the version of yourself that you want to be!
I am a first generation Pakistani Muslim American, so I have an intimate understanding of what it's like to navigate conflicting cultures and identities, which come with unique family dynamics and cultural expectations. I am passionate about providing counseling for all first generation Americans, but teens, young adults, and women are my specialty.
I believe that every single person has the capacity for growth - the thing that will set you apart is the willingness and resources to do the work. I am committed to providing a safe and compassionate environment where my clients feel both accepted and challenged. I will always meet you where you’re at so we can cultivate trust and work together.
