بالکل جیسے جسمانی صحت کا علاج ضروری ہے، نفسیاتی و ذہنی صحت بھی اتنی ہی ضروری ہے۔ میں اپنی تہذیب و معاشرتی رجحانات کے لحاظ سے جانتا ہوں کہ کتنا مشکل ہے کسی ماہر نفسیات یا کاونسلر سے بات کرنا۔ لیکن آپ جان لیں مجھ سے مل کر آپ کا خوف دور ہو جائے گااور صرف آپ کی صحت یابی پر توجہ کی جائے گی۔

As an EMDR-trained clinician, I work with individuals who have experienced trauma.
If there is a sense of hopelessness surrounding you about what has passed amidst the fear of what is yet to be; if you find yourself stuck as these challenges show up in your relationships, lingering grief, or a sense of powerlessness - know that you don't have to go through this alone. In this space, we can meet. My training has prepared me to provide tailored counseling to individuals, couples, and children navigate challenges of marriage, divorce, and illness or loss of loved ones. Along with private practice, I have worked at behavioral hospitals helping clients struggling with challenges of depression, anxiety, and trauma.

My intentional use of humanistic talk therapy and EMDR can reduce the intensity of memories related to trauma, anxiety, or ADHD.
Whether you were diagnosed as a child, as an adult, or self-diagnosed based on Tiktok, neurodivergence comes with challenges. Together, we will prioritize your needs (rest, eating, and more) and identify tools that work for you. Turn your executive functioning challenges into healthy boundaries and balanced relationships (with yourself and others!), and allow yourself to live with confidence and joy. If you’re a parent on top of that, you have even more need to reflect on your childhood and practice the care you want to teach your kids! In our work together, we will sift through old patterns and discover the parent you want to be.

I am a trauma and multiculturally-informed counselor.
You might be hoping to improve your relationship with food, or to heal from the societal messages you've absorbed about your body, or to simply understand yourself better. I believe that revitalizing our relationship with our bodies and with food is not just a deeply personal and individual journey, but it is also a matter of societal reclamation and community-inspired advocacy. Messages we hear from our families, communities, and media can make us feel disconnected from our physical experience, and in therapy you can work towards regenerating that bond in a way that is empowering and life-changing.

Self-doubt has been embedded in you through past experiences, maybe even trauma or neglect in your family growing up - it makes you believe that you are somehow defective beyond repair.
Your emotions feel like they could take up an entire ocean, a burden that feels too heavy to carry. On paper you are compassionate and high achieving, but underneath you feel self-critical, anxious, lonely, or broken. It is hard to trust people and show up as your true self, and your relationships feel overwhelming. Like you’ll make a mistake and lose it all or get too close for people to see the real you. Anxiety prevails in your day to day life, telling you that you have to do things perfectly or else people will find out that you don't actually have it all together.

Trauma and PTSD Therapists

When should I seek treatment for trauma?

Not everyone who undergoes trauma needs therapy to heal, but many do. If, after experiencing a traumatic event, you find yourself struggling with symptoms such as nightmares, dissociation, irritability, or emotional numbness—especially if these symptoms last more than a month and are severe enough to interfere with your daily functioning—you may benefit from seeking out therapy with a trauma-informed provider.

How long does trauma therapy take?

Different types of therapy for trauma unfold on different timelines. Prolonged exposure therapy and cognitive processing therapy, for example, each take about three months, while trauma-informed CBT may last anywhere from 8 to 25 sessions. Other approaches, especially those that are less structured or that incorporate elements from multiple modalities, may be more open-ended, though many patients report feeling better within the first few months of treatment.

What happens if trauma is left untreated?

Unaddressed trauma can have serious—even devastating—effects on relationships, career, and day-to-day functioning. Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) can lead people to distrust or lash out at others, making it difficult to maintain intimate relationships; it can also trigger symptoms such as flashbacks or hyperreactivity that can interfere with a person’s ability to function effectively, personally and/or professionally. Some sufferers turn to drugs to find relief. Symptoms may lessen on their own with time, but there is no guarantee that PTSD will resolve on its own.

Can PTSD come back after treatment?

It is possible for PTSD symptoms to recur months or years after successful treatment. This is because, like most mental health disorders, it is not possible to “cure” PTSD, and stressful life events may cause symptoms to recur in even the most resilient individuals. There is no shame in re-experiencing PTSD symptoms nor in returning to therapy when such relapses occur; indeed, many forms of trauma therapy explicitly encourage periodic “maintenance sessions” to reinforce coping skills and ensure that symptoms stay manageable.
