I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts with over two decades of clinical experience supporting individuals and couples through life’s challenges. I earned my Master of Education in Mental Health Counseling and Marriage & Family Therapy from Cambridge College in 2002, and since then have worked across a wide range of clinical and academic settings. My professional background includes private practice, where I provide individual and couples counseling, as well as crisis work in hospital Emergency Departments. I have also served as an adjunct faculty member at both community colleges and four-year institutions in the Greater Boston area, teaching undergraduate courses in Psychology and Human Services, including Crisis Intervention, Counseling Practice and Policy, Research Methods, and Personality Psychology. I approach therapy with genuine care, curiosity, and respect. I tend to become deeply invested in my clients’ emotional well-being and believe that meaningful change happens within a safe, collaborative, and trusting therapeutic relationship. My style is primarily solution-focused and practical, while still allowing space to explore deeper emotional patterns at a pace that feels right for you. I understand that discussing sensitive topics—such as intimacy, sexuality, identity, or personal struggles—can feel vulnerable. I strive to create a nonjudgmental, affirming environment where clients feel comfortable being open and honest, knowing they will be met with understanding and professionalism. I enjoy working with adults from diverse backgrounds and life experiences, including those navigating men’s health concerns, relationship and intimacy issues, LGBTQ+ identity and sexuality, compulsive behaviors (including pornography use), immigration-related stressors, and the emotional impact of cancer and serious illness. My goal is to support you in feeling empowered, grounded, and better equipped to move forward with clarity and confidence. In addition to English, I am fluent in Arabic (Lebanese dialect), which allows me to provide culturally responsive care to clients who prefer therapy in their native language.

Is life harder than it should be for you? Are you feeling crippled with worries, anger, and/or depressive feelings? Are you doing the same things repeatedly expecting different results? end up feeling worse about yourself, your life, and dissatisfied with your relationships? Knowing that there is a better way to be living and getting to that place may seem like a daunting task, but it does not have to be done alone. I am a licensed psychotherapist who provides a safe and nonjudgmental space to explore distressing thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, together. Through this process, we can find ways for you to live the way you want to live your life. As a therapist I draw upon proven techniques from Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, psychodynamic therapy, and Emotionally Focused Therapy. There is no problem that is too big or too small that can’t be helped by psychotherapy. By connecting with another person to start a discussion, you have already started the process of changing your life for yourself and those around you.

Hello! I often tell people that when choosing a new therapist, pick one that has had lots of therapy themself. I have! It's important to be aware of one's own issues in order to be effective in helping others, and to know what it's like to be in 'the other chair'. Through my own work I have also become aware of many pertinent resources that I enjoy sharing with my clients: books, groups, techniques, movies, and other providers that may be of help. I am very knowledgeable of addiction, trauma, sleep issues, relationship struggles, depression, and anxiety. My relationship with each client is different; some are playful and humorous, others very serious. I am good at both!

Whether you’re dealing with anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, stress, or major life changes, working with a qualified mental health professional can offer meaningful support.
