Uzma has experience working with adolescents, adults, immigrants, international students, and individuals from diverse backgrounds. Her areas of work include but are not limited to substance use disorders, anxiety, depression, self-esteem issues, trauma, life transitions and relationship issues, work and daily stressors. Using an eclectic approach, Uzma draws from various modalities such as dialectical behavioral therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, psychodynamic framework, narrative therapy and client-centered therapy, approaching therapy through mindfulness, a culturally sensitive, queer-affirmative and a trauma informed lens.
Uzma's therapeutic philosophy mirrors a lantern (diya), symbolizing the gradual nature of healing and change. She believes that true transformation unfolds over time, with finding inner strength and resilience. In collaboration with her clients, Uzma delves into the underlying concerns, guiding clients towards understanding and processing their experiences.
Uzma embodies "grow through what you go through.” With creativity and adaptability, she crafts engaging and effective therapy sessions, fostering curiosity and innovation. Her goal is to guide clients back to their authentic selves, drawing inspiration from the warmth of sunshine and fluidity of water to create a nurturing and transformative environment.
