“Our work together will help you make sense of earlier experiences, address current concerns, and provide you with tools for making real and lasting change.”

What was your path to becoming a therapist?

After undergrad, I spent three years working in humanitarian/refugee organizations in the Middle East. A year of that time was spent doing refugee work during the Syrian war. I was greatly affected by this experience, mainly from witnessing the suffering and trauma of the displaced Syrian refugees and their lack of mental health services. This experience motivated me to pursue psychology and gave me a passion to assist individuals who are impaired or struggling to create movement in their lives.

What should someone know about working with you?

Our work together will help you make sense of earlier experiences, address current concerns, and provide you with tools for making real and lasting change. I will use my knowledge and experience, as well as effective therapeutic techniques, to help guide and empower you so that you can work your way out of your challenges. I provide a positive space and warm therapeutic relationship and I welcome those who are new to therapy.

How do your own core values shape your approach to therapy?

I find it imperative in my practice to make every client — regardless of background, race, sexual orientation, or ethnicity — feel welcome and supported. My international experience and time overseas has given me a deeper understanding of the importance of diversity and inclusion. I believe every individual is unique and my care is centered specifically around you and the best life you can lead.
