HOW I CAN HELP YOU
I am a bilingual (Arabic/English) licensed psychologist based in Dubai.

My previous roles at global organisations equipped me with a deep understanding of workplace stress and burnout, especially in the UAE.

I am particularly interested in supporting individuals navigating challenges related to:
•⁠ ⁠stress
•⁠ ⁠anxiety
•⁠ ⁠burnout
•⁠ ⁠depression
•⁠ ⁠identity issues
•⁠ ⁠self-esteem
WHAT I SAY TO PEOPLE WHO FEEL NERVOUS OR HAVE CONCERNS ABOUT THERAPY/ASSESSMENT
I always like to be upfront with clients, especially those who are new to therapy, that feeling nervous, awkward, or even embarrassed about coming to therapy is completely normal. You’re not doing it wrong. You’re not broken for feeling that way. In fact, those feelings often signal that you’re about to do something meaningful and unfamiliar, and that takes courage.

I see therapy as a collaborative, human space. It’s not about someone “fixing” you. It’s about us exploring together (with curiosity, not judgement) what’s going on in your inner world. You don’t need to show up with all the answers, and you’re not expected to be polished or perfect. Sometimes, just showing up is the work.

I would love to connect with you!
