MA Mental Health Counseling, Boston College  Fulbright Scholar

Therapy for deeper
healing and
lasting change.

Supporting individuals, couples, and families through trauma, anxiety, relationship challenges, and life's difficult transitions.

Together, we'll understand the patterns keeping you stuck and help you build healthier relationships with yourself and others.

About me

I believe therapy is about creating a space where people feel safe enough to understand themselves more deeply, reconnect with their strengths, and move toward meaningful, lasting change.

My approach is trauma-informed, integrative, and relational, drawing from psychodynamic, humanistic, Internal Family Systems (IFS), mindfulness, and expressive approaches. Together, we'll work toward greater self-awareness, healthier relationships, emotional resilience, and a life that feels more authentic and fulfilling.

I earned my M.A. in Mental Health Counseling from Boston College as a Fulbright Scholar and have practiced in both Pakistan and the United States. My experience spans individual, couples, family, and group therapy, adoption-informed mental health, intimate partner abuse education, and private practice.

Working across cultures, particularly within South Asian communities, has deepened my understanding of how family, identity, and cultural values shape mental health, relationships, and healing.
