Therapists in Downtown, Boston, MA

First and foremost, I like to stay curious. I want to learn about you and your obsessions and compulsions. We will start slow. There isn't any pressure to get things right the first time; we can take things as slow as you're willing to push yourself. I want to help others and am fascinated by the way the human brain works. I love being able to support someone going through a difficult time and enjoy watching them overcome their challenges. At NOCD, my team and I specialize in providing evidence-based treatment for OCD. Our deep understanding of the nuances and intricacies of OCD enables us to properly diagnose and treat it.

Under the pressures of today’s world, achieving life satisfaction and a sense of wellbeing can feel more difficult than ever. My goal is to help clients flourish in the face of life’s challenges. I am skilled in helping clients work through stress, anxiety, life adjustment issues, relationship challenges, and self-esteem concerns. I am especially interested in helping with issues related to sexual orientation, identity exploration, sex and sexual functioning, and coping with stigma (e.g., racism, heterosexism, sexism, classism). Working with LGBTQ+ clients, college students, and young professionals is especially rewarding to me.

We live in a high-paced world, pulling us in all directions, leading us to feel burnt out and disconnected from other people. You might have become tired of the nagging stress, the strong emotions, the complexity of navigating relationships, or the feeling that something is holding you back from reaching your full potential. Despite all of this, a part of you wants to feel better and move forward. After all, that is why you are taking this major step of seeking help at this moment in your life.

We all encounter difficult stressors, setbacks and experiences that sometimes cause us pain. We may be challenged by our relationships, previous trauma, difficult transitions, depression or anxiety. We can make the choice to work through these events and grow even when things are hard and confusing. My goal as a therapist is to provide a safe place for you to explore your struggles, and give you objective feedback and guidance to help you improve your life. Whether you'd like to improve your mood, strengthen relationships or need support coping with a difficult circumstance I can help.

I am committed to helping individuals on their journey to wellness and self-discovery, utilizing a holistic and client-centered approach.

Taking a step toward healing, growth, or change can be frightening, and is also an act of courage and self-care. I identify as an Asian American, Pakistani, second-generation immigrant Muslim woman and a social justice-oriented therapist. I offer a warm, compassionate space while presenting my authentic self, hoping to foster your capacity to do the same. I am committed to cultural sensitivity and I attend to issues of identity, power, privilege and culture. I utilize an integrative approach that draws from multicultural/feminist, relational, mind-body based, and cognitive-behavioral therapy to meet your goals and needs.

Whether you are an individual, couple, or family, I encourage reflection, curiosity, and learning to understand yourself and others with compassion, creativity, and calm. I welcome diverse ages, abilities, and sexual and gender identities and invite the complexities of culture, ethnicity, and race.

I recognize and have a deep respect for the positive impact counseling can have on one's life. Having an impartial third party provide support and help one cope with any number of life's challenges can be invaluable. I believe the best therapists listen without judging and never dismiss or minimize rational or irrational fears as issues that adults "shouldn't" worry about. I practice an eclectic mix of theoretical approaches to empathically help individuals develop personal strengths and improve their self-awareness. My approach is collaborative, supportive, practical, and focuses on personal effectiveness.

Buongiorno & Good Morning! Sometimes it is difficult to make sense of feelings, learning how to manage them, and being able to find healthy ways to express your inner self. Therapy is a safe space and confidential process that through time, consistency and work together will allow you to identify and develop a healthy voice to express difficult feelings. Connection and Bonding in therapy promote resiliency, stimulating and feeding the mind. Feeling heard, being seeing, feeling that we have a purpose in life is a vital, indispensable healing and nurturing process of psychotherapy.
