Find Your Calm: Embrace Healing, Experience Growth
Outwardly, things appear to be going well, but inwardly you are struggling.
You appear to be holding things together, but inside you know that it’s time to make changes. You feel isolated, or alone. You feel weighed down by stress or overwhelmed by difficult emotions. You experience pressure to keep going and keep everything running smoothly for everyone around you.

Hi, I’m Sakina.
I believe you have the power to create safety within yourself.
I help women and teen girls (15+) overcome anxiety and heal their past to uncover their authentic story and move forward with clarity and confidence. Whether you struggle with anxious thoughts, self-doubt or -criticism, relationship dynamics, grief, or are simply navigating a challenging life experience or transition, I can support you with compassion, wisdom and growth-oriented guidance.
How I Can Help
When one woman heals, a generation can heal.
Perhaps your story began before you, and you can see the generational patterns that have shaped you. You realize you can’t change the past or anyone else, and you want to be the one to change.
You may be raising children, or serving other people. Regardless, your well-being impacts the people around you, and your journey has the potential to impact generations after you.
Understanding the patterns that have shaped you, your family of origin, and perhaps cultural or religious dynamics that have played a role are a starting point for self-awareness and growth.
Therapy can help support you to identify these patterns, shift internalized negative beliefs, and develop positive ways of meeting your own emotional needs, even if the weren’t met growing up. The path isn’t always easy, but I promise to hold a steady light by your side as you walk towards your own healing and growth.
Whether you are new to therapy, or have been to therapy before, I invite you to begin your journey of self-discover and healing. It’s worth the investment.

Begin your journey.
We will meet for an introductory assessment to help me understand your history and for us to create goals for our collaboration. Prior to this session, you will receive intake paperwork to complete via the Client Portal, a HIPPA-compliant platform for communication. We will then schedule individual sessions in my private office or virtually.

Experience relief.
Our time together will be adapted to your changing needs, Many clients find that they are able to begin achieving their goals in the first few months, while others continue to work through more complex challenges over a longer period of time.
