Great to meet you!

I am a Queer Palestinian Immigrant therapist (she/her) with a focus on centering QTBIPOC. I approach my practice from an anti-capitalist, and anti-imperialist lens. I aim to foster an affirming and empowering space for all parts of your intersectional identities. I specialize in working with adolescents, young adults, and adult individuals.

My approach to therapy

My approach to therapy is to create a safe and nonjudgmental space, shared power dynamic and strength-based. I believe you are the expert in your own life and I hope to honor your experience by walking alongside you.

What you can expect from me

You can expect therapy with me to be open, warm, and curious. That means providing space for all of your thoughts, feelings and experiences without shame. I am also a believer that none of us exist in isolation from the many systems we live within.
