How I can support you and what you can expect!
“Struggling with your mental health, confidence, stress levels and/or overall life direction? - Take a journey with me! Let me guide you through the chapters of your thoughts, emotions, and behaviours. Then, we go even deeper into the realms of your self-esteem, self-identity, and attachment style.”
“Wanting to get married, strengthen your marriage or repair after infidelity? - Take steps in the right direction. If you two are committed to making it work, to moving forward, to healing together, then there is a way! We can work together in counselling and educational sessions or you can join one of my therapy programs.”
“Are you pregnant, lost a baby, or planning to have children? Are you struggling with parenting realities or child-parent dynamics? - I can work with you to unpack the depression, grief, stress, and worries you may be sitting with. In my individual or couple counselling sessions, I will use my expertise in perinatal mental health and pull on my years of experience in children’s mental health and school social work to support you!”
“Living with unresolved intergenerational and/or racial trauma? As a BIPOC religious minority, I myself am going through my own healing journey. Let us come together and hold space for each other! I have developed strategies and programs to treat these forms of trauma that are both evidence-based and lived experience informed! I can support you in individual or group therapy.”

Vision
Ummah is the Arabic term for community. It was very important for me to have that reflected in my work because I firmly believe that your relationship with yourself and the relationships you foster with others is the glue that holds our community as whole together. We need each other, rely on each other, and the world relies on us all! It is my honour as a mental health therapist to work with individuals and groups to improve their health whole-istically. Whole-istically means that whether we meet as individuals, as a couple, or a group, we can work together to explore all the parts of the self: mental-emotional, physical, spiritual, and social in order to better the individual and collective whole.
