Here to Help You Heal 

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with more than seven years of experience helping preteens, teens, and adults create lasting emotional well-being. My specialties include anxiety, depression, stress, relationship difficulties, emotional regulation, cultural adjustment, work burnout, and major life transitions. 

In our work together, I create a safe, compassionate, and nonjudgmental space where you feel heard, understood, and accepted. I look forward to supporting you in building resilience, discovering your inner strengths, and creating meaningful, lasting change. 

My Approach to Care 

I’m passionate about helping patients recognize their strengths by developing practical skills and deeper self-awareness. We achieve this together through therapeutic techniques like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT). My approach is collaborative and tailored to your unique needs, whether you’re seeking relief from emotional distress, wanting to strengthen relationships, or striving for personal growth.  

I believe that improving mental health goes hand in hand with enhancing your overall lifestyle and well-being. Working together, I provide a supportive space where you can better understand yourself, develop healthier coping skills, and work toward the life you want to live, all while identifying what's holding you back in order to move toward greater balance, confidence, and fulfillment. 

A Journey into Exceptional Patient Care 

My path to becoming a therapist has been shaped by both professional achievement and personal transformation. I began my career as a physician in Iran, where I developed a deep appreciation for caring for others during the most vulnerable moments of their lives. After moving to the United States, due to personal circumstances I was unable to complete my residency. Although this was one of the most difficult periods of my life, it also led me through a profound period of self-reflection and growth.  

During this time, I realized that my true calling had always been psychotherapy, and that realization inspired me to pursue counseling, a profession that allows me to connect with people on a deeper emotional level and support lasting change. Today, as a mental health counselor, I combine my medical background with evidence-based approaches such as CBT and DBT to help patients improve their overall wellness. 

Personal Interests 

I enjoy gardening and caring for plants, exploring local coffee shops, going on nature walks, and traveling. I also love trying new healthy recipes, watching sunsets, and spending time outdoors.
