Great to meet you!

Hi! I am a native from New Orleans, Louisiana. I come from a South-Asian Muslim background. I completed my Masters degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from The University of Holy Cross. I am a trauma-based therapist and have 6 years of experience working in this field.

My approach to therapy

Life often throws stressors at us at the most random times. We end up losing sight of ourselves within the stress and chaos. My goal is to assist you through such stressors, and eventually overcome them. Whether, this is going through a life-altering event, overcoming trauma, or just finding ways to manage your life, I am committed to helping you find that happiness at the end. My areas of interest include individuals, children, multi-cultural, depression, anxiety, and trauma-based issues.

What you can expect from me

As your therapist, I will ensure that a safe, non-judgmental space is created so you can be equipped with the tools to live your most fulfilling life. I believe that the client is the expert in their treatment and value the power of therapy to facilitate change. I strive to help my clients find peace, comfort, and self-love that will guide them in life.
