Great to meet you!

*I only service women and Muslimahs. If this is not how you identify, I may not be the best therapist for you.

Hi! My name is Shakirah and I specialize in women’s issues, life transitions & healthy relationships. Whether you’re struggling with anxiety, depression or transitioning to a new phase in life, I can help you gain the tools to thrive and support you along your journey. I also have certificates in Perinatal Mental Health, Spiritual Competency Training and Mental Health & Nutrition.

A bit about my approach to therapy

Cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy and behavior activation are modalities I use with a holistic approach believing that the mind, body and soul are connected.

What you can expect from our first session

In therapy, my goal is to meet the client where they are by individualizing treatment based on the needs of the client. No matter what your struggle is, we will work towards increasing your optimism and challenge unhelpful thoughts. I strive to provide a non-judgmental safe space by being empathetic and supportive.

Shakirah's style is

Empowering
Holistic
Solution-oriented
