Great to meet you!

Hello! Im Arifa (pronounced ar-fuh) and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I am passionate about de-stigmatizing Mental Health and providing individuals with the proper therapeutic interventions they deserve! I have a wide range of experience from children, adults and seniors and have worked with individuals, and families.

A bit about my approach to therapy

I believe in an empowerment approach that is solution focused. I believe that every individual deserves to know their own self-worth and be treated accordingly. I love to empower clients to work towards a solution that will make them happy and that fits with their personal goals..

What you can expect from our first session

I believe clients have a right to make their own goals and work towards them. You can expect to walk away from therapy feeling like your goals are attainable and take steps to attaining them.

Arifa's style is

Empowering

Energetic
