Hikma: n. Arabic word for understanding, knowledge, discernment & conciousness
At the heart of my work is the belief that each person holds hikma, an inner wisdom and resilience that can be accessed through reflection and support. I believe that holding space with compassion and respectful curiosity are essential tools for healing. Therapy offers a safe space to explore your emotions, challenge unhelpful patterns, and build the tools you need to navigate life with clarity and confidence.
Healing is not one-size-fits-all. Sometimes, we simply require a safe, supportive space to explore our deepest selves. Finding someone who sees you for you and validates your experience is something every soul deserves. This is your story.
Therapeutic Approach
Welcome to
Individual Therapy
I specialize in working with school-aged children, college-aged young adults, and mothers of young children. These sessions are private and personalized to meet each client’s unique needs.
I draw from a variety of evidence-based practices such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness, strength based interventions, and person-centered therapy to meet you where you are. I integrate empathy, cultural humility, and an understanding of how religion and intergenerational experiences shape our lives and emotional health.
Community Groups
Support groups create meaningful connections among people navigating similar life experiences. These groups provide a safe, judgment free space to share, learn, and grow together. Whether you're a parent adjusting to new demands, a student facing academic pressures, or someone seeking community while working through emotional challenges, group sessions foster mutual support, validation, and encouragement. Each group is guided by a structured yet flexible format that includes psycho-education, practical coping tools, and opportunities for open dialogue.
Our Purpose
everyone deserves healing
Mission Statement
At Hikma & Wellness, therapy is a valuable investment in your emotional health, growth, and self-discovery.

We work towards being mindful about the systemic barriers that individuals and families face and intentionally work towards cognitive justice for all.
Future Vision
At Hikma & Wellness, our vision is rooted in growth, connection, and access.
