I believe therapy is a journey of healing, growth, learning, and unlearning. Throughout our journey together, I take a compassionate and personalized approach, using a mix of techniques including Person-Centered Therapy (PCT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Psychodynamic Therapy, and Internal Family Systems (IFS). My goal is to create a safe, open space where you feel heard, supported, and empowered to make positive changes at your own pace.
My experience includes working with children, adolescents, and adults—both individually and in couples and family settings—helping them navigate challenges like anxiety, depression, self-esteem concerns, relationship issues, and family dynamics. Informed by my multicultural background as a Pakistani woman, I’m also deeply passionate about supporting South Asian communities and addressing the unique cultural and identity concerns faced by immigrant groups.
