About My Clients
I specialize in treating OCD and alleviating obsessive thoughts. I have successfully supported people in their healing from shame, abuse/neglect, and toxic relationships, including with food and body image. I have experience working with BIPOC individuals, Muslim people, ace/aro, sexually and gender diverse people, poly/CNM, BDSM/kink, and sex workers.
My Background and Approach
I am not direct in my approach. I do a lot of hypotheticals with my clients, and explore the different thought patterns and feelings that come up in various scenarios. It can get pretty dramatic. I also love using movie and TV references in session if you feel there is a character that you relate to or identify with.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
Growing up, I felt suffocated and frustrated by the labels that society placed on me as a Muslim and Middle Eastern woman. I was heartbroken when I witnessed similar conflicts among friends in their own communities who chose to conform in an attempt to fit in. I’m closely familiar with feeling like we have to put a mask on, perform, and be something else so that we would be accepted, included, and loved. My personal experiences taught me that healing and inner peace is achieved when we feel connected, and therapy is a unique option for deep connection. My passion is to create a personalized and emotionally intimate space - where you can feel liberated to explore who you truly are without any masks and be loved for your authentic voice and self.
