Therapists for college students near 30303

Hello, I'm an LCSW specializing in trauma therapy. I help people who have had issues in the past and are ready to move forward with their lives. I help my clients do this by facing the issue head-on so healing can begin. I serve as a guide through the healing process asy clients are the expert of their own stories.

Are you struggling with racing thoughts of worry and stress, feeling like you’re about to crawl out of your own skin? Or perhaps you’re an athlete overwhelmed by the constant pressure to perform at 100%, with no room for an off-day, fearing that losing a part of your identity feels like the end of the world? These feelings can be overwhelming and difficult to navigate alone. That’s why I’m here—to offer a helping hand tailored to your unique needs, supporting you every step of the way!

I specialize in working with queer and neurodivergent clients, including those with no formal diagnosis, particularly autistic people, individuals with ADHD, and couples with mixed neurotypes. I am interested in exploring embodiment, somatic interventions, expressive arts, and pleasure activism with clients. I work with a variety of needs, such as navigating non-traditional relationship structures, anxiety, depression, self-actualization, low desire, identity development, and dysphoria, and the way grief can interplay with these needs. I facilitate these explorations through a humanistic, feminist, and systems-oriented lens. My area of focus is trauma-informed sex therapy. I hope to support clients as they defang shame and center joy and pleasure in their lives. I have four years of experience working with survivors of sexual trauma and a lifetime of working with queer people; in addition, I am kink-aware, polyamory-positive and -informed, pro-sex work, and organizer-friendly.

I am able to build rapport quickly with people and clients in general. I am willing to work with people who are ready to receive the help they need. I am easy to talk to, try to be a good listener, honest, up front, and aware of issues related to immigrants as I am originally from Pakistan and a practicing Muslim. I love working with students specially as they are in the process of transitioning in life and often times need more help with coping.

Can we be real for a minute? You are here because you're just not happy anymore. Something has GOT to change. Maybe it feels like no matter how hard you try, nothing you do is ever good enough. You're spread so thin between school, family, and life- only to find that you are left empty and unfulfilled. You've done everything you were supposed to, isn't life supposed to be happy now? Instead you're filled with anxiety, feel disconnected from those around you, and no one is harder on you than yourself. You want to believe there is more to life than this, you want your cup filled too, but could you ever really believe you deserve it? That's where I come in. I specialize in helping women reject the unreasonable expectations the world has put on us, release pain from your past that holds you back, and reclaim your happiness! Imagine being able to radiate confidence and have a love for yourself you always longed for. Together we can work to create a life free of anxiety and self-criticism. If you are ready to begin rewriting your story, contact me today for a free phone consultation! In all honesty- I’m a lot like you! I’m a wife, a bonus mom, I love my fur babies, and I live in the same world that had me feeling stuck in that cycle. I know what it takes to get to a place of healing and happiness, and I would be honored to work with you.
