What is my background & philosophy?
Since my childhood, I’ve been fascinated by how memory, culture, and landscapes shape who we are. I’ve learned how to navigate different identities, as a child of Lebanese immigrants; how to build (& rebuild) community through major life transitions; how to leave the corporate world for something different; and how to heal burnout, while establishing myself in multiple careers. Knowing that everyone’s journey is unique, I’m not here to tell you what to think, or how to feel - I’m here to help you find the wisdom that is waiting within you.
Services Offered
Therapy Offerings
50-Minute Sessions (virtual/in San Diego, CA):
> Individual therapy (adults only): $200/session
> Partner/Family therapy (adults only): $250/session
Other services (virtual/in San Diego):

Superbilling:
Some insurance plans partially reimburse out-of-network care. If your plan has these benefits, I can submit invoices (Superbills) on your behalf, and you will get some money back for session fees.
Focused Intensives
In addition to weekly therapy, I offer therapy intensives—a deeper, more focused way to do meaningful work in a shorter period of time.
Intensives are designed for people who often feel that single therapy sessions are too brief; people who want sustained momentum, or people who are drawn to a more retreat-like, immersive therapy experience. Intensives can be especially helpful when working through a specific theme or life transition, if you’re ready to go deeper than the pace of traditional therapy allows.
Intensives may focus on topics such as core values, identity and culture, burnout, imposter syndrome, inner critic work, or nervous system regulation, and I also offer EMDR intensives for more concentrated trauma processing.
Pricing varies depending on the structure and length of the intensive. While intensives are not covered by insurance, I aim to keep the process relational and collaborative, and I’m open to conversations about fees when possible.
If you’re interested in an individual or small-group intensive, please reach out to learn more!
Workshops/Events
Aside from 1:1 services, I also run workshops & group events.
Not only do these events help with skill-building, but they also foster community, addressing the loneliness and isolation that is so common in our adult lives.
Each workshop focuses on specific themes (such as core values, imposter syndrome, inner critic work, etc.), while encouraging learning in community with others. Depending on the event & effort involved, workshops are priced independently. While workshops are not covered by insurance, I try to keep my business practices relational by pricing workshops fairly, and collaborating with participants on pricing.
If you’d like me to run a workshop for your event or company, please reach out!
I have extensive experience in events that range from intimate conversations to larger group audiences. Topics for workshops can include identity, emotional intelligence, stress management, active listening, & more.
