About
NOTE: Providing TeleHealth/video sessions ONLY.
As a therapist, I strive to create a safe, compassionate environment, where you can open up and share more vulnerable parts of yourself. I believe we are here to move through life experiences growing towards our full potential. However, many times our past lingers in us and shapes our beliefs and perceptions in ways that creates suffering, preventing us from living here and now with full presence. Psychotherapy offers a possibility to shed the light of awareness into our inner world, processing the past and adopting healthier ways of thinking, perceiving, feeling and behaving.
I have worked in various settings offering therapy to adults, children, adolescents and their families. My therapy work is informed by my studies in Integrative psychology and my own experiences in life, therapy and spirituality. I am also fluent in Farsi.
Certifications and Expertise
My approach in therapy is eclectic drawing from different traditions such as psychodynamic, mindfulness, emotionally-focused, Cognitive – behavioral therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Play Therapy, sand play, EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing therapy) which is very helpful for processing traumatic experiences, SEP somatic experiencing and transpersonal psychology.

I specialize in treating mood disorders, anxiety disorders, depression, anxiety, grief, loss, transitions, stress management, trauma, PTSD, childhood abuse, relationship issues, women issues, conflicts, cross- cultural issues, spiritual inquiry, self-empowerment.
