Great to meet you!

Hi, I'm Aishah, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 9 years of experience. I specialize in helping women and teens/tweens overcome anxiety, depression, trauma, and life stress. With training in trauma therapies like EMDR, I focus on healing and empowering my clients. My goal is to help you feel alive, well, and resilient, overcoming obstacles to live a fulfilling, balanced life. Let’s work together to create lasting change and emotional wellness.

My approach to therapy

My therapy approach is collaborative and client-centered. I work with you to set realistic, achievable goals that support your journey. You are in charge, and I’m here to guide and support you. I use an eclectic approach, blending therapies like CBT, mindfulness, DBT, EMDR, play therapy, and solution-focused techniques. Additionally, I offer Christian counseling upon request to integrate faith-based support into your healing process.

What you can expect from me

Typical goals of therapy include reducing anxiety and sadness, while fostering a greater sense of purpose and engagement in enjoyable activities. I take a hands-on approach in sessions, which may involve breathing and meditation exercises, playing a game, or using paper and pen to problem-solve together. These activities are designed to help you actively participate in your healing process and make tangible progress toward your goals.
