Through my own journey of healing, mindfulness has been very instrumental with me taking care of myself holistically. Connecting with others is one of the things I look forward to throughout life. I love intimately connecting with the people that are in my life, hiking, cooking, decorating my home, road tripping and soooo many other cool things. I'm at a place in my life where I'm resting a lot more and making space for all of the things to come.... See you in session soon.

I am a warm, experienced therapist who helps clients heal and navigate life after traumatic experiences and toxic relationships. With extensive experience working alongside students, professionals and veterans, my approach is tailored to meet you where you are. Drawing from CBT, DBT, and EMDR helps you move through pain, regain clarity, and restore hope. If you’ve been carrying pain, shame, or uncertainty for a long time, it’s easy to believe that change is impossible. But I’ve seen over and over again that when someone is given the right environment—one where they feel seen, valued, and supported—they can rebuild, heal, and grow in ways they never imagined. If you’re ready to take that first step, I’m here to walk alongside you. You don’t have to do it perfectly. You don’t have to be “ready” in the way you might think. You just have to be willing to show up, exactly as you are, and let the process unfold.

I specialize in panic disorders, depression, bipolar and disordered eating. Not only do I help treat these disorders, but I help clients completely be rid of them! Believe it or not, panic, anxiety and depression don’t have to be life-sentences, and you don’t just have to just learn “coping skills”. These disorders are symptoms of a root problem that can be undone in therapy! I have helped many people break free of their lifelong anxiety and depressive symptoms in just a few months. Therapy can really work if you have a competent therapist, who does more than just listen to your problems! I love supporting my clients to make mental and practical changes that allow them to finally have the peace they’ve been looking for. Be encouraged – it’s absolutely possible! You are not alone in your struggle, and you don’t have to stay where you are! Let this be the day you take that first step – to become the person you were made to be and fulfill the unique calling in your life.

Hello, my name is Jamal and I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor with seven years of experience collaborating with diverse communities including preteens, adolescents, adults and older adults, and underrepresented groups. Most of my work consists of processing trauma and assessing the relationships we have with others to build more hope for the future. I personally believe that though things may be hard right now, no one is 'crazy' and that in some way, the way we are makes sense due to our past experiences. That means we can understand and create experiences now and in the future that are more adaptive and true to how we want to live. -I currently am not seeing clients under the age of 18 nor couples due to my availability. My apologies in advance for any inconvenience-

Frequently asked questions

Why filter by California rather than a city like LA?

When looking for online therapy, you can see anyone that is credentialed in the state. We want you to find the best fit, therefore, Grow Therapy shows available therapists across California from San Francisco to San Diego! If you’d rather see someone in-person, you can change the filter from virtual and find a therapist near you in California.

Will my therapist take insurance?

When booking you’ll be asked to verify with your Member ID. However, if you don’t have any of the insurances available you can select cash. Our therapists will have their cost of appointment on their profile. Individual session costs will vary.

How does the Specialty Filter work? Can I find a therapist that focuses on a specific issue?

The specialty filter is optional. You don’t need to check any boxes to see a provider. However, fit is very important when selecting an online therapist. If you have knowledge or experience to recognize what specialties you may need.

What are the "Clients say I'm" badges?

Grow Therapy asks patients about their experience with therapists after they have had a certain number of sessions. After enough responses, we add those characteristics to their profiles to help you find the best online therapists for you. We're still working on collecting this information from all our therapists.

Why use Gender, Age, and Identities filters?

Finding a provider with a similar life experience can be beneficial because it can be easier to establish rapport and potentially be understood quicker and clearer.

What to expect during your first session?

Your first therapy session is for you and your therapist to meet each other and to ask any questions that you have about the counseling process. This is where you can expect your therapist to do the same as they will ask questions to gain insight into your specific situation. In this first session the therapist is doing their part to gather as much information so they can better assess if they are able to meet your therapeutic needs.

Depending upon your provider's specialty, you may also discuss the methods the therapist will use. For additional information on therapy methods, please visit the Grow Therapy Help Center. Some people feel nervous before their first appointment, and that is totally normal! Coming prepared with a list of questions for your therapist may help. Remember, you're taking a brave step by seeking therapy, and it is okay to be nervous as you try something new.
