I believe in our innate power to heal and grow from difficult life experiences. Whether you've experienced a trauma recently or many years ago, these experiences may continue to impact you in the present: physically, emotionally, psychologically and relationally. I offer a gentle, collaborative and affirming space to access and work through past events, however they show up, as well as for self-exploration and personal growth. I pay attention to the ways in which issues of identity (race, class, gender, sexual orientation, nationality, ability, size, etc.) may impact your experience. I am licensed in DC, CT, SC, DE.

Teletherapy in DC, SC, CT, DE. I'm trained in brain-body techniques such as EMDR and trauma sensitive yoga that help us to access trauma stored in the body and calm the nervous system. I am LGBTQ+ and poly-friendly, have experience in anti-trafficking and cross-cultural work and conducted research on discrimination among Arab- and Muslim-Americans in the US
Each person is an expert on their own life, so I work with each of my clients to create a safe, non-judgmental, and customized experience that will suit their needs. I know it takes courage to reach out for help, and just reading this is the first step. Feel free to reach out for more information or to schedule a session. I look forward to hearing from you.
