In my 30 years of practice I've successfully treated men and the unique concerns that bring them into therapy. These include career insecurity, burnout, transitions; relationship problems; and the entire gamut of addictive behaviors (sex, porn,gambling, substances, etc.). Symptoms most often associated with these life problems include depression, anxiety, avoidance, isolation, and sexual dysfunction. Because they aren't comfortable exposing their vulnerabilities men often need encouragement to seek therapy. If this description sounds like you, or someone you know, please contact me for a free 20 minute consultation. I can help!

The experience of finding a qualified therapist who feels like a good match can be exhausting. There are far too many options and the idea of telling a stranger anything about yourself is daunting.

My job is fourfold: to listen to your issues, recognize maladaptive patterns or behaviors, help to connect your emotions to your actions, and teach coping skills that nurture an overall sense of competency and contentment.

I provide a safe space to work collaboratively on any issue, including cultural identity, acculturation, inter-generational conflict, job stress, relationship dissatisfaction.
I am a licensed clinical psychologist currently in private practice in NYC. My own personal background of growing up in NYC and having been raised by immigrant parents influenced my chosen career path in psychology. I wanted a profession to help people. By forging a nontraditional path that confronts the common stigma against mental health, I offer shared experiences in an environment that allow people to voice their thoughts and feelings openly without fear. I am trained in numerous clinical models of care but uphold the importance of using an integrative approach of tailoring treatment interventions based on each client's needs.

Whether the person comes to therapy seeking love, a sense of belonging, finding a fulfilling career, managing family relations, or healing from trauma, I believe my nuanced background and experience help me in creating a safe space that is warm, inviting, and trusting experience.
I specialize providing therapy for women who are Arab/South Asian or people of various backgrounds. I am a first-generation Muslim Arab American, born and raised in NYC. In my early years and adulthood, accessing resources and services that felt inclusive and culturally sensitive was challenging. My own journey in healing has sparked a desire to provide culturally sensitive care to people from all walks of life.

I treat anxiety and depression through examining deep-rooted inner conflicts/shame/guilt/childhood trauma and unconscious cognitive distortions while reshaping repetitive/obsessive coping mechanisms that manifest in perpetuating self esteem, career, and relationship difficulties.
I work with unique individuals who are seemingly successful and happy but deep inside feel lost, alone, even if they are in a relationship, and often feel like they don't belong or struggle to be present in life. With expertise gathered from years of experience across borders, time zones and cultures, I dive alongside men and women into the deep ocean of darkness— including all types of diversity, in-between/intersecting identities, worldwide travelers, high-achieving/performing and creative people. I am Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) certified and was formerly a clinical supervisor and psychologist at Johns Hopkins University.
