Healing is a journey we can take together, at a pace that feels safe and sustainable for you. With a background in Public Health and Social Work, I value your life experiences and understand that various factors can impact our wellbeing. This allows me to approach our work together from a holistic lens that is rooted in social justice and culturally sensitive care.
My therapeutic approach is collaborative and solution-focused, culturally sensitive, and client-centered. As a second-generation immigrant of South Asian-American and Islamic upbringing, I understand how to navigate diverse backgrounds and perspectives. My professional training includes anxiety, depression, grief and loss, trauma, and healthcare. I work with adolescents and adults navigating life’s unique moments. My experience includes supporting individuals and families through end-of-life care and various medical settings, and those in tech industries, healthcare, and the creative arts.Through diverse interventions, such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing (MI), and the Trauma Resiliency Model (TRM), I offer compassion and empathetic listening alongside skill building to help clients towards their goals of care. I am hopeful that throughout our work together, you will feel seen, heard, and supported.
