For people who have experienced anxiety, persistent stress or trauma— one of the greatest fears is feeling helpless to a pattern that keeps repeating itself over and over. In our painful search for relief, we might feel lonely and disconnected from friends/family. In the process, we might wear a “mask” to please others. The moments of self-doubt can leave us uncertain about our authentic voice and question whether we can truly trust ourselves. You deserve to feel acceptance and security within yourself. I believe our work together can help you move towards a life of meaningful healing and growth.
In therapy, I prioritize building a strong, collaborative relationship with you. I want to learn about how your cultural background influences your thoughts/behaviors. By asking exploratory questions, we can gain insight into the underlying patterns that may be causing distress. Then, we can develop strategies to help create and sustain healthier habits.
Choosing the right therapist for you is a crucial part of your healing journey. I invite you to contact me to discuss if we are a good fit. I am also honored to provide support to the Arab-American community. Please note, I am fluent in Moroccan dialect only. Together, we can assess whether I can provide effective therapeutic services to support your needs.

My practice primarily focuses on issues that stem from having an intersectional identity. For many people, complex family/relationship dynamics have lead to trauma, anxiety, depression, and low self-esteem. After a thorough assessment, we create a safe and empowering space to engage in self-exploration and learn therapeutic skills to help you achieve your healing goals.
