I work to build a trusting, long-lasting relationship with you. I have extensive training and experience working with a variety of populations, including mild to severe mental illness, as well as diverse groups, including children, youth, adults, and families. I specialize in treating individuals with various diagnoses, including depression, anxiety, trauma/PTSD, sleep disorders, and chronic pain.
I work with a variety of modalities including individual therapy, couples and family therapy, and group counseling. I also utilize cognitive, behavioral, systemic, and relational approaches. I specialize in psychodiagnostic and personality assessments and I can provide services in both the Arabic and English Languages.
In the first session, clients can expect a supportive, structured, and collaborative conversation focused on understanding what brings them to therapy and what they hope to gain from the process. I will ask questions about current concerns, relevant history, strengths, and goals, while also ensuring there is space for the client to share at their own pace. We will review confidentiality and answer any questions about how therapy works. My goal in the first session is to create a safe, nonjudgmental environment where clients feel heard, understood, and clear about next steps moving forward.
