I believe therapy is a container for self-expression where you can show up exactly as you are. As a person with lived experience of being queer, Arab, Non-binary, and Muslim, I have seen first hand how difficult it is to find someone whose values align around the importance of community and is committed to a trauma-informed framework. Growing up in a world that constantly feeds us narratives such as “healing happens alone” and “we are solely responsible for the state of our own wellbeing” can be deeply challenging and frustrating. Together, we will dismantle the notion of isolation as a symbol of strength.

Finding a therapist can feel dark, and you are looking for some light at the end of the tunnel. My name is Sunshine and I am the therapist that brings personality, vibrance, and radical genuineness to all my sessions. Typically, I help those who have experienced long-standing trauma, those who numbed their pain through substances or self-harm, or people who have experienced racial trauma. Instead of feeling misunderstood, you need a place to be seen authentically. I am the therapist who will hold space for your emotions and motivate you to believe things will improve.

When life feels out of control we search for things to calm us down and feel in control again. Yet, too often our problems remain unresolved and we end up feeling empty. Maybe you've been in a cycle of failed relationships and are wondering why. Perhaps your emotions are getting the best of you and life is a little messy as a result.

I am passionate about providing evidence-based, culturally-sensitive interventions for a variety of mental health concerns, including depression, anxiety, post-traumatic stress disorder, and borderline personality disorder. I approach treatment from an ecological and family systems lens to consider ways in which individuals influence and are influenced by other people, systems, and settings. In my work, treatment plans are collaboratively developed with clients and are often broadly focused on goals around regulating intense emotions and/or healing from traumatic experiences.
