Supervisor: Emily Brems, LMFT

As the daughter of Afghan refugees and immigrants, I bring a deep appreciation for the ways culture, family, faith, migration, and intergenerational experiences shape identity, relationships, and mental health. These experiences strengthened my commitment to providing inclusive, culturally responsive care while approaching each client with curiosity, respect, and humility.

I enjoy working with individuals, couples, and families navigating anxiety, trauma, grief and loss that is often rooted in relationship concerns, family conflict, identity development, and life transitions.

My perspective is rooted in the belief that individuals cannot be fully understood outside the context of their relationships, culture, family, community, and lived experiences. I strive to provide culturally responsive care that honors your unique identity, values, strengths, and personal story.

I’m particularly interested in understanding how development, trauma, and life experiences shape the way we think, feel, and relate to others. I support this with a holistic view that considers the influence of family, culture, and relationships on overall well-being.

I offer a warm, collaborative environment where you can feel seen, heard and respected. I believe meaningful change occurs when we can explore our experiences in a space that values strengths, relationships, and cultural identities.
