In our first session together, here's what you can expect

Whether you want to start off slow or get right to it, I will meet you wherever you're at and without any judgement. Our first session will be an opportunity for me to get to know you and your goals for treatment. I am a firm believer that trust is the most important component of any therapeutic relationship and I hope that overtime, you feel safe enough to show up to sessions (and ultimately your life) as your most authentic self.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

My greatest strength is my adaptability. For the past 6 years, I have trained in various clinical settings where I treated teens, young adults, and older adults with anxiety, depression, relationship issues, complex trauma, substance use, and psychosis. I rely on both my clinical experience - and my lived experiences as a gay, biracial, first-generation Muslim from the East Coast - to connect with you and better understand where you're coming from. Prior to becoming a social worker and therapist, I spent 8 years working for different international non-profits.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

I love working with people who are big dreamers that want to live a fulfilling life, but who do not take themselves too seriously. Our circumstances, stressors, and emotions are REAL. They can leave us feeling stuck, small and paralyzed. If we keep coasting through life to "just get by," then we may miss out on the little gems that life has to offer. If you're ready to expand the quality of your life but not sure how to go about it, then I'd love to work with you.
