As a therapy-goer myself, I understand how challenging it can be to find the right person to guide you on your healing journey. Before you read any further, take a moment to thank yourself for taking that first step—it’s a big one. As a Somali-Canadian Muslim woman, mother, and child of immigrants, I deeply understand the complexities of navigating intergenerational trauma, such as growing up in a single-parent home, facing poverty, living in social housing, and carrying the weight of self-parenting while reparenting those around you. Your burdens may feel overwhelming, but your past doesn’t have to define your future.
Together, we’ll explore practical tools and strategies to support your healing. My approach is grounded in anti-racist and anti-oppressive principles, always affirming your identity, culture, and spirituality. These intersections are essential for your overall wellness, and we’ll focus on your most pressing concerns and experiences.
I strive to create a warm, non-judgmental space where you can be your true self—a space where you don’t need to over-explain, but where you’ll feel validated and heard. Our conversations may be deep and emotional at times, while other moments will flow and filled with laughter, because joy is crucial to healing too. Contact me via email or phone. Chat soon!
