MultiPlan Therapists in Orange County, CA

My drive stems from wanting to be able to provide support to those who may need just that extra bit of support or guidance navigating through the ups and downs of life. I have a very laidback client centered approach. I try my best to help empower my clients to guide the therapeutic process so that they are able to get what they need from the whole therapeutic process. I love working with Muslim communities, specially women and adolescents. There is a large need and desire for mental health services but until recently this community has severely lacked beneficial services provided by qualified professionals.

Struggling with addiction and feel rehab isn’t an option? Leaving your family, job, school and responsibilities for an extended period of time is not always needed to get yourself healthy and on track. If you or a loved one are struggling with addiction, I know the challenges of this lifestyle. Being caught in the cycle of addiction is hard-feelings of fear, failure, guilt, and shame. You may have tried stopping on your own, only to find yourself engaging in the same unhelpful behavior. Breaking this cycle alone is tough! Counseling may be more effective for you than rehab. I specialize in moderation & abstinence based approaches.

As a Therapy practice we love to help everyone! no matter what the situation is, our purpose is to help anyone struggling during these times!

I believe that our past experiences have dictated the way we react as a child, a teen, and an adult, a family or as couple with our current situation. Having a better understanding about why we do these things can create a lasting change on our perspective of life. Viewing your emotional pain as who you are continues to increase any and all symptoms. Guilt and shame start to set in and the struggle to get through life becomes unmanageable. Perhaps it's addiction, anxiety, bad relationships, or another mental health diagnosis. Perhaps you lost what you once believed you were living for.
