Individual Therapy
Amidst the unfolding events at both collective and personal levels, you may find yourself grappling with overwhelming emotions such as grief, guilt, despair, and loneliness. Sometimes, it can feel challenging to articulate what weighs heavily on your heart. You might yearn to confide in someone and to explore what may be holding you back.
My focus lies in working with women and men who come from or who live in the Middle East and Africa. Sensitivity to diverse cultures, religions, and values helps to jump start the therapeutic relationship, as a common language and understanding underlies the relationship. Having lived across Africa, the Middle East, Europe, and the US, I understand the intricacies that accompany the immigrant, refugee and diaspora experience and understand the psychological toll inflicted by war and its repercussions on those who endure its hardships directly and indirectly.
Therapy will provide a safe non-judgemental space to share and explore your life. Together, we can delve into your childhood, family dynamics, and the cultural tapestry that has woven through your life, exploring how these experiences have shaped your journey to the present moment.
TOGETHER WE CAN EXPLORE
Holding the tension between family or tradition and birthing a new version of you
Working with feelings of overwhelm such as anxiety, fear and uncertainty
Tender and suppressed emotions including feelings of grief, anger, and resentment
Parts of you that feel less accessible and which you would like to approach gently and with kindness
Patterns of detachment, solitude, and loneliness, along with the potential for connection and a sense of belonging
Navigating and befriending aspects of your identity. This can include the exploration of LGBTQI identities
My background, rooted in Sudanese heritage yet also partly Lebanese, provides a dual perspective as both an insider and an outsider. This unique vantage point creates a safe space for exploring topics that may otherwise be considered taboo or shameful.
