LMFT, 5 years of experience
My personal, professional, and cultural background is vast and varied. I have lived in 3 different countries and speak 3 languages (Dari, Farsi, English) and am familiar with 2 more (Urdu/Hindi and Spanish). I am passionate about education and psychology. Being of service to others is my life purpose. My approach to therapy is holistic and client-centered. I truly believe in the strength of the individual to heal and grow. When I'm not in session with clients, I usually spend time in nature, or with family and friends. I enjoy activities such as hiking, archery, billiards, comedy, music, reading for knowledge, and traveling to new destinations.
Clients can expect to have a clear understanding of my approach to therapy, how we can establish a collaborative relationship in accomplishing their goals in therapy, and the benefits, risks, and limitations of psychotherapy.
Some of my greatest strengths are that I am passionate, experienced and knowledgeable about my work as a Psychotherapist. What makes me unique in delivering excellent psychotherapy services is my varied life experiences, familiarity with many cultures, and my ability to balance objectivity and compassion in my practice.
I enjoy working with adults (18-70 years of age) who are motivated to improve their lives, gain understanding, and learn tools to accomplish their therapeutic goals. I enjoy working with individuals primarily. * NOTE: At this time, I am not able to accept couples or families as clients.
A holistic approach has been my treatment method, along with CBT, EMDR, and mindfulness, depending on the client's issues and preferences.
Gestalt therapy emphasizes the whole individual, including their relationships, values, and goals. My therapeutic approach aligns with this modality in recognizing each person as unique, capable of reaching their full potential and exercising their free will.
I am trained in Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR) and have utilized this treatment method when working with severe trauma and PTSD. *** Please note EMDR Therapy sessions are Cash only.
