Arabic Therapists in Staten Island, NY

I am happy to see you via video sessions (only) during this time. My name is Hebah (pronounced Hib-a), and I am excited you found my profile. Therapy is about discussing your problems, but that’s only the beginning.

Please note that at this time I am currently only accepting requests for supervision for clinicians looking to attain clinical licensure or interested in private supervision. My approach to therapy - A relationship built on trust and empathy is key to healing. I believe in providing a person-centered and non-judgmental therapeutic atmosphere that starts with building rapport. Many parts of our identity contribute to our perceptions and we’ll work together to identify those so you can have a personalized treatment. I believe in a culturally sensitive approach to both assessment and treatment is important.

You are willing to be challenged in the process of growth and prepared to explore unconscious patterns, strengthen connections to self and others, set boundaries, and overcome emotional difficulties.

People often seek therapy because of the people in their lives that refuse it; this is what drove me to become a therapist. My passion for therapy stemmed from growing up with unhealthy family relationships due to negative communication patterns. I witnessed how people who love one another can subtly damage their relationship and turn a good-intentioned bond into a toxic chain. Mainly, my desire to become a therapist emanated from others’ refusal to receive therapy - as if it were a platform of judgement and subjectivity. This also influenced the areas that I chose to specialize in and my approach in therapy.

It is my passion to normalize mental health treatment and improve accessibility to mental health care for all, by listening to the individual’s needs and wants, assisting them to reach their unique goals. Every person experiences the world in a different way depending on their history and intersectionality. I believe it's important to go into your world as much as possible and work with you on the things you face and see them from your perspective.

It can feel daunting to begin therapy. You may know you are struggling with your relationships, work, or personal fulfillment yet it can feel difficult to seek help. In my practice, I will work with you in a safe space to explore and address the difficulties the prevent you from living a fulfilling life. I utilize eclectic approaches including psychodynamic, relational, existential, and attachment-based theories. You can learn more about my practice at www.hattabtherapy.com
