After graduating from George Mason University with a bachelor's degree, I learnt innovative strategies and tactics from Grand Canyon University to improve my services for my clients and the community. My work before obtaining my master's degree included educating clients about the importance of mental health and self-care, dispelling the stigma associated with mental illnesses, reducing prejudice toward individuals who need counseling or medication, encouraging resilience and self-compassion.
I specialize in integrative mental health therapy, namely psychodynamic psychotherapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, person-centered therapy, brief solution-focused therapy, and motivational interviewing. I also conduct culturally sensitive treatment and speak Somali as a second language fluently. I work with adults, couples, and adolescents.
I believe in working together to identify opportunities for personal development. My goal is to equip you with the understanding and abilities necessary to obtain the resources for living a fulfilling life, which can be utilized in every aspect of your life. I am excited about the prospect of collaborating with you to tackle the challenges of life.

Cognitive behavioral therapy is something I frequently employ in my work. We will discuss your reasons for seeking therapy in your first session and choose the best course of action to move forward with. We'll examine how your beliefs impact your feelings and experiences using cognitive behavioral therapy. I'll teach you strategies to counter negative beliefs throughout treatment.
