I have 14 years of experience working with multicultural populations, in different countries such as the USA and Lebanon. I offer therapy in both English and Arabic. I can also hold a conversation in French. I support at-risk youth, displaced families, and those facing relationship problems. I work with mood disorders and different types of trauma, created by bullying and domestic violence. I offer a client-centred and multicultural approach in therapy. I emphasise accepting the uniqueness of each individual while also working with the intricate impact of culture on self- awareness, development and overall well-being.
In addition to the wide range of therapeutic techniques I use, I offer Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR). I am also an animal lover and believe in integrating animals into therapy, when appropriate, as this type of therapy can provide soothing, healing and comfort for individual clients.
I view the process of counselling as a delicate and enriching experience, both for my clients as well as for myself as a counsellor.

Our team of qualified psychologists and counsellors are highly skilled and
experienced in treating stress, anxiety, depression, and trauma.
We are different from other practices for two main reasons:
Our work with and support for diversity & inclusion: This encompasses working on
issues relating to gender, ethnicity, LGBTQI+, consumption habits & lifestyles and
other issues facing minority and marginalized groups.
Our evidence-based yet innovative techniques: While we use and are highly
experienced in mainstream approaches such as schema therapy, ACT, DBT and
CBT, we don’t use a cookie cutter approach. Instead, we tailor our therapeutic
approaches to suit different personality types and client needs. Some of our
approaches include Animal-assisted therapy, Art therapy, Music therapy, Somatic
experiencing, Conscious connected breathwork, among others.
Our work also encompasses supporting both human beings as well as companion
animals to help foster a sense of holistic well-being.
