About me

As an existentially trained psychotherapist, I want to invite you to a conversation about who you are. My aim is to work with you to make sense of your life story to create more ease into your existence. This means examining through a sociocultural lens. I am particularly interested in people who feel marginalized by society in any shape or form. I come from a Middle Eastern background and am fluent in English and Arabic. I welcome people from all backgrounds. The space I hold for people is one of curiosity, enthusiasm and confidentiality.

Together we will work to explore your values, goals and how you make meaning of your life. In what areas of your life do you feel stuck? What are your dreams? We will work collaboratively towards your mental well-being and create positive change. 

The therapeutic process can help you make important links between the present and the past at a safe and appropriate pace that is tailored to your needs.

I have over 10 years experience working with clients facing anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship problems, gender and sexuality issues among other concerns.

I use an approach that is mainly existential but integrates elements from the CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy) and EFT (Emotionally Focused Therapy) modalities.
