About My Clients
I work primarily with Queer and BI/POC folks to navigate feelings such as anxiety, grief, loneliness, guilt or shame. I also support clients in processing attachment and trauma experiences and uncovering persistent patterns rooted in childhood. If you find yourself in constant anxiety spirals or struggling with vulnerability in relationships, you are not alone. In our space, all parts of you - the anxious part, the perfectionist part, the inner child - are welcomed as they are.
My Background and Approach
Hi, I'm Bushra. In my work, I borrow from various modalities to collaborate with my clients to cultivate the judgment-free, compassion-focused, and connective care that they deserve. Our work together will center your identities, emotions, lived experiences, and goals. I specialize in working with anxiety and depression as well as religious and attached-based trauma stemming from familial history. I believe that therapy can be one of many ways to heal and disrupt generational patterns of harm and would be honored to support you as you move through life.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
My approach to therapy is anti-oppressive, holistic, and intersectional. I firmly believe that all clients deserve compassionate and culturally affirming care and center my therapeutic approach beyond the boundaries of a Eurocentric lens. I know that when you reach out for support, your main focus is receiving the help that you need. That is why I strive to provide a space where you can feel understood without having to over-explain your identity, your culture, or other parts of what make you, you. I'm glad you are on the journey toward better mental health and would be honored to embark on that journey with you.
