About

As a certified psychotherapist with a medical background and over 15 years of experience, my work spans frontline care, crisis intervention, and clinical supervision. I offer a warm and supportive space where clients can feel heard, understood, and comfortable being themselves.

My approach integrates Islamic principles with evidence-based Western psychological frameworks, allowing me to provide care that is both culturally responsive and grounded in each client’s unique needs.

I support individuals navigating life transitions such as immigration, relationship changes, and single parenthood, as well as concerns related to anxiety, mood, stress, adjustment, and changing roles and responsibilities. I also work with those who may feel disconnected from their sense of purpose or spirituality and are seeking greater emotional and psychological well-being.

Together, we can work toward greater clarity, resilience, and balance. I welcome you to take the first step in your therapy journey with me.

What’s a Rich Text element?

What’s a Rich Text element?

The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.
