My focus as a therapist is to assist you in personal healing and discovering your wholeness. Therapy is a process that allows us to reflect, discover, and grow. Often feelings of depression and anxiety, self-esteem and relationship issues, addiction and trauma can block us from feeling "ok", and fully integrated into the life we want. My training in EMDR, as well as IFS informed EMDR, TF-CBT, blended with a utilization of mindfulness principles and "parts work" serve to assist my clients in healing and growth. I am also certified in SSP, a non-invasive application of Polyvagal Theory,

I am a licensed psychologist and director of Person to Person Resources, Inc., a counseling practice employing 12 well-trained therapists. I have three decades of experience working with individuals and families navigating a host of difficulties. I have worked extensively in the area of domestic violence, offering local and national presentations, as well as having written a book chapter on the topic. I continue to offer consultations to medical and dental practices, as well as church staff on conflict resolution.

We have the capacity to heal, change, and grow. One of my favorite quotes is, "Although the world is full of suffering, it is full also of the overcoming of it." (Helen Keller) I strive to create strong therapeutic relationships in a supportive, empathetic, and confidential space where positive change is promoted. With a deep respect for the unique stories, strengths and needs of each person I see, I tailor my approach to the individual. Our work together is collaborative.

As a therapist, I am driven by the desire to help individuals become happy, confident advocates to attain needs and goals within their lives, overcoming barriers of systemic, chronic, and/or situational adversities that continue to hold them back.

I am passionate about meeting people where they are physically, emotionally, and spiritually. I believe that each and every person already holds the keys to their own healing, and that I am here to help empower others to identify and utilize the assets that already exist within themselves and their lives. I have striven in my own life, both professionally and personally, to understand how trauma impacts one’s mental health and wellbeing, and have worked to identify what tools and resources exist to heal these traumas.

Mental health is just as important as physical health. If you are tired of struggling with anxiety, depression, or hopelessness and want to find joy in life again, I am here to help. Working with a therapist can help improve your relationships, thinking, job performance, and overall well-being. I also work with people struggling from the aftermath of traumatic events. Having frequent nightmares, feeling on edge, and avoiding things you enjoy can all be normal after trauma. I enjoy helping people find peace and hope after these life changing events.

“Healing may not be so much about getting better, as about letting go of everything that isn’t you- all of the expectations, all of the beliefs- and becoming who you are.” -Rachel Naomi Remen. While life is often full of beauty, it also comes with uncertainties, challenges and at times, suffering. Aisha believes therapy is an empowering tool for anyone who may be struggling to navigate through life’s challenges, adjusting to present adversity or processing unhealed trauma. Regardless of the struggle you may be facing, Aisha seeks to promote a non-judgemental and relatable approach to assisting others in establishing autonomy.

I truly believe that seeking help is a sign of courage and strength. It is this inherent strength displayed by those struggling that inspires me to do what I love; help my clients turn that strength and courage into inner peace. I enjoy working with people, helping them discover the things within themselves and their lives causing their distress and guiding them on a journey to reshape their perceptions, emotions, and reactions to achieve that inner peace. It is my sincere belief that learning how to manage your mental health is a life altering experience, improving your quality of life and promoting harmony.

Our therapeutic approach is holistic, and client centered. We work with clients of all ages. We work together with clients to improve many areas of their lives, and to improve their overall mental health and wellness. We are an open-minded practice that treats all genders, religions, orientations, races, and cultures. Our goal is to provide a comfortable, judgement-free space.

I work with clients who have issues of grief, depression, various kinds of trauma, including trauma which may be from past lives, sexual abuse trauma, life transitions, aging, near-death experiences, spirituality, spiritual wounding, and spiritual emergency. Although I can help the individual heal and/or cope better with the symptoms or issues they might be experiencing, if the individual is willing to do the deeper soul work, I also want to help that person find the meaning of those symptoms and issues, and in finding that meaning, begin to experience spiritual transformation and growth - new life.

Part of being human is that we all experience challenges, suffering, and brokenness in our lives. Taking the first step can feel daunting, but please accept my warm invitation into a relationship based on trust and the inherent belief in your goodness. It is my ongoing commitment to bring acceptance, understanding, open-mindedness, empathy, empowerment, and respect to the therapeutic relationship. I view the road to transformation and healing to be a collaborative process in which your personal knowledge and strengths will be used in conjunction with my clinical approach to discover a future filled with hope and possibilities.
