I believe in the power of my clients to make positive changes in their lives once they gain the necessary insight and skills in our sessions. As a therapist, I seek to empower clients as they explore, express and honor their truth. I draw from humanistic and multicultural frameworks to gain a better understanding of clients’ experiences. To respect the diversity in my clients’ needs, the interventions I use follow an integrative approach, including: interpersonal, cognitive-behavioral, and mindfulness-based methods. I have several years clinical experience working in university mental health settings, and thus have a strong skill-set in supporting the concerns of undergraduate, graduate students and young professionals. I specialize in the treatment of anxiety, mood, relationship concerns, identity development, and life transitions. I also have expertise in addressing concerns related to international and immigrant identities (especially Arab, Middle Eastern, and North African individuals).

I have a PhD in Counseling Psychology from Boston College and prior to working in private practice, I worked almost exclusively in university counseling centers for several years. The centerpiece of my work is building a therapeutic relationship in which you can explore and better understand yourself without fear of judgment, essentially "rewiring" your brain so that confidence and self-acceptance come to feel more like second nature to you. In the meantime, we can also build skills to better cope with anxiety, depression, and other symptoms.
