Services

I work with children, adolescents, and families experiencing emotional, behavioral, or relational challenges. These may include difficulties related to school, peer relationships, life transitions, or family dynamics. At times the focus is on supporting a child or teenager individually, and at other times on strengthening family relationships and communication. Parent support sessions are an integral part of my practice. These sessions provide space for caregivers to reflect, ask questions, and better understand their child’s emotional and developmental needs, while strengthening attunement, boundaries, and relational patterns.

Whether your child is just beginning to find words for big feelings, a teen navigating complex emotions and identity, or you’re simply looking to better understand and support them, therapy can help.

I currently offer virtual sessions for individuals and families internationally, as well as in-person child and family counseling sessions in Beirut, Lebanon.

Working together

At the heart of therapy is relationship. I offer a space that centers connection, creativity, and emotional safety. Using art, play, mindfulness, and relational dialogue, I help individuals make sense of their experiences and reconnect with their inner strengths.

I believe that every young person possesses an innate strength that can be revealed through empathy, creativity, and meaningful connection. My therapeutic approach is rooted in psychodynamic principles, with a focus on empowering clients through strength-based, culturally sensitive interventions. My goal is to create a safe and nurturing environment where my clients feel seen, heard, and supported as they develop the tools to approach life’s challenges with confidence and self-compassion.

Some of the reasons people come to see me include:

Emotional regulation and overwhelm
High levels of stress or shutdown
Anxiety, worry, fear, extreme shyness
Trauma and distressing events
Withdrawal, irritability, or changes in mood
Behavioral challenges at home and/or school
Grief, identity, and life transitions
Peer challenges and relationship stress
ADHD, organization, time management
Changes at home such as relocation, divorce, bereavement
Parent-child dynamics and attachment concerns

I also support parents through consultation sessions that focus on understanding behavior through a developmental lens and building connection and confidence in their role as caregivers.

The therapeutic power of art lies in its ability to convey the complexity of human experience — bridging the gaps between what we feel, what we know, and what we have yet to discover.”
