I take a holistic approach to therapy, I support healing by exploring all aspects of the self—physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual. I believe therapy is a means of supporting yourself, a safe place to process emotions, a way to gain clarity, a way to feel supported and a way to feel understood.

I am a licensed psychotherapist in private practice, in California. My therapeutic approach is grounded in commonsense, honest dialogue, reflective listening, and mindfulness-based cognitive therapy. I incorporate breath work, journaling, dream exploration, and present-moment awareness to support deeper self-understanding. Our personal stories—full of both gratitude and regret—offer insight into the choices we make. In therapy, we explore those patterns, discover new options, and move forward with courage and compassion. Clients leave with practical tools, greater self-awareness, and a foundation of personal responsibility that supports lasting freedom. ( NOTE: I do have a no show, late show and late cancel policy (see "Practice Details") which includes all clients including those who have insurers who do not cover Grow Therapy for those instances. In the case of a LATE show client will be responsible for pro-rated amount note covered by their insurer. 36hr advance notice is required to cancel or reschedule.)

We are all faced with challenges. These challenges can create limitations that interfere with gaining a sense of self, forming healthy relationships, and pursuing our goals. I believe we should not allow these obstacles to dictate how we respond to the environment around us. Learning healthy coping skills, challenging negative self talk, and setting effective boundaries can facilitate desired outcomes in our daily life. Given the opportunity, I would enjoy working with you right where you are. Let’s get to work!

In addition, I helped support U.S. service members and their families while working as a military family life counselor at Naval Medical Center-San Diego in Pediatrics. I also volunteered at San Diego Unified School District and coached little league. I love being a father to my two awesome sons and I enjoy athletics and cooking in my free time. I am practical and eclectic therapist combining elements from theoretical orientations such as cognitive behavioral therapy and solution focused therapy to help clients of all ages. The vast majority of my clients report that they had a good experience working with me and describe me as experienced, professional, friendly, kind, helpful and effective.

Hi there! I am a therapist that has worked and lived on the east coast and the west coast utilizing my Florida and California license. I have worked with an array of different populations prior to becoming a therapist as I was actively involved with community health organizations, psychiatric hospitals, foster care facilities, domestic violence group homes, adult day care facilities, and crisis and text lines. Through this array of different experiences, I was given the opportunity to explore a wide array of populations and mental health disorders. I personally lost my Mother and brother to suicide and this has given me further insight into the reality of mental health situations and survival.

You may be here because you’re facing emotional challenges such as depression, anxiety, unresolved grief, trauma, or major life transitions. Experiences like moving homes, changing careers, or navigating the foster care system can leave you feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected from yourself and your relationships. With a strong background in supporting clients through depression, anxiety, grief, trauma, and life transitions, I help individuals identify and work through the barriers impacting their emotional well-being. As an Arabic-speaking therapist, I understand the importance of language, culture, and feeling truly understood in the healing process. I am committed to creating a safe, compassionate, and culturally responsive space where clients feel genuinely heard and supported. My work is grounded in a person-centered approach, and each session is thoughtfully tailored to your unique experiences, needs, and goals. Together, we will build a nonjudgmental space where you can feel seen, understood, and empowered. Whether you are navigating emotional pain, unresolved loss, or a significant transition, I am here to walk alongside you. If you’re ready to take the next step, I invite you to reach out so we can begin a conversation about how I can support you.
