I’m a PhD licensed clinical psychologist dedicated to helping adults navigate life’s challenges with greater clarity, confidence, and emotional well-being. In therapy, I strive to create a safe and supportive environment where you can feel understood, heard, and empowered to move forward at your own pace. My goal is to help you not only manage symptoms, but also build together the foundation for lasting emotional well-being. I often integrate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and mindfulness-based interventions, while maintaining a warm, nonjudgmental space for personal growth. My focus is on helping clients develop insight, strengthen coping strategies, and foster meaningful, lasting change.

Hello, my name is Thamreen, and welcome to Tufts and Tulips Therapy! I’m so glad you’ve taken this important first step toward exploring therapy. I understand how overwhelming it can feel, but I want you to know that you don’t have to navigate it alone. With over ten years of experience as a clinical social worker, I’ve had the honor of supporting people who, like you, were unsure or nervous about starting therapy—and together, from tufts to tulips, we’ve created real and lasting change.

Throughout my career, I’ve worked in hospitals, EAPs, crisis lines, and community mental health settings, offering care to veterans, people experiencing homelessness, refugees, company executives, youth, the elderly, and everyone in between. Whether you’re an individual, couple, or family, I welcome clients of all genders, ethnicities, sexual orientations, and backgrounds, ages 17 and up. Kindness, empathy, and respect are the foundation of my work, and I strive to make sure you feel seen, heard, and valued from day one.
