Great to meet you!

I am a queer Muslim woman of color dedicated to creating a safe, affirming space for self-reflection and growth. I specialize in working with LGBTQ+ individuals, people of color, and those at the intersections of these identities. My experience includes addressing systemic inequities, identity exploration, and trauma. I approach therapy with cultural humility, compassion, and a focus on honoring your unique story and lived experiences.

My approach to therapy

I take a collaborative, client-centered approach grounded in systems and relational perspectives. Together, we’ll explore how relationships, systemic dynamics, and personal experiences shape your life. Therapy is a partnership where we define your goals and progress together. My approach prioritizes compassion, curiosity, and cultural humility to create a space where you feel seen, heard, and supported.

What you can expect from me

Clients can expect to leave sessions with greater self-awareness, clarity about their needs, and a deeper understanding of how their experiences and relationships influence their well-being. Together, we’ll uncover strengths, explore patterns, and develop tools to navigate challenges. My goal is to support you in creating meaningful connections, fostering resilience, and defining what growth looks like for you.
