ABOUT

I am a trained counselor and mental health practitioner with a focus on supporting BIPOC and queer clients. I offer individual, couple, online, and collective counseling, creating a space where you can explore your emotions, relationships, and personal growth in a safe, non-judgmental environment.

I specialize in working with topics such as attachment, anxiety, sexuality, compulsivity, LGBTQI* experiences, friendships, and relationships—including communication challenges, conflict resolution, and alternative relationship structures like consensual non-monogamy (CNM) and polyamory. My approach is deeply informed by an awareness of racism, discrimination, and gender identity, ensuring that your lived experiences are understood and respected.

Language: English, Arabic, and German

Before becoming a counselor, I earned a Master of Arts and worked as a multimedia artist for over 15 years. My artistic background deeply informs my counseling approach, allowing me to think beyond rigid frameworks and embrace creative, intuitive, and adaptive ways of working with clients. Just as art encourages exploration and self-expression, I bring this openness into my practice—helping clients find new perspectives, navigate challenges with flexibility, and engage in self-discovery in a way that feels natural and empowering.
