Michelle Ahmed

I am a Bangladeshi American Woman, a daughter of immigrants, older sister, cat-mom, an artist, a singer, a registered yoga teacher, a writer, an activist, and a trauma psychotherapist who inspires healing through the arts.

For so long I have felt the larger systems try and silence or outcast my colorful and intersecting identities even today as a Private practice owner. Thus, empowering other BIPOC and marginalized folks to fight these systems and make space for our healing joy is crucial for me.

I integrate a systemic and intersectional, holistic, mindful, trauma-informed and evidence based approach for the following areas of focus:

• Healing from Childhood, Sexual, Relational, Racial, Cultural, or Intergenerational Trauma
• Exploring & Reclaiming Multicultural/Intersectional Identities
• Empowering folx with Chronic Medical Conditions
• Reconciling Family of Conflict
• Transitioning into Blended Families
• Transitioning into adolescents or young adults (ages 8 to 18)
• Therapy for the Therapist

I strive to help the children within you speak your untold truths so that you can connect with others and begin to feed your hearts. Feeding your heart means finding what brings your life PURE and UNFILTERED joy, purpose, peace, and rest—nourishing yourself with ALL of that. Feeding ourselves with acts of joy are a personal and communal healing movement. I hope you leave this therapy space feeling more empowered, informed, understanding of yourself and your communities, and more connected.
