I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, certified in Spiritual Guidance and Expressive Art, with a multi-cultural background. I bring a warm, person-centered approach to my practice. I have a passion for working with older adults, especially those navigating life transitions, and I offer therapy in Farsi, Turkish, and English. My focus is on creating a safe, supportive environment where clients feel heard and understood.
My approach to therapy is person-centered, meaning I prioritize creating a safe, non-judgmental space where you are fully heard. I integrate mindful CBT, humanistic therapy, spiritual guidance, and solution-focused strategies to help you explore your strengths and goals. I also encourage mindfulness and self-discovery, so you can better understand yourself and your journey.
In the first session, we’ll focus on getting to know what brings you to therapy and what your goals are. I’ll introduce my approach, ask about your history and current challenges, and together we’ll start to shape a plan for how we can work towards the changes you want. This initial intake sets the foundation for our work together.
