Introduction

I am an Associate Marriage and Family Therapist, dedicated to supporting individuals, families, and couples in navigating life's challenges. With a deep commitment to culturally responsive and trauma-informed care, I specialize in helping clients manage stress, anxiety, depression, PTSD, grief, and the unique experiences of immigrants and refugees. I also work with military families, providing a safe space to address the complexities of their experiences. With specialized training in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), couples therapy, and grief counseling, I am equipped to guide clients through transformative healing processes. My approach integrates evidence-based therapeutic techniques with a strong emphasis on empathy, understanding, and respect for each individual's background and experiences. I offer services in both English and Farsi, ensuring that clients from diverse linguistic and cultural backgrounds feel heard and supported. Whether you're dealing with the weight of past trauma, adjusting to new life transitions, or navigating the challenges of daily stress, I am here to help you find clarity, resilience, and peace.
