Hello! I am a therapist here at We Rise Therapy and Wellness. I received both my bachelors degree and Master of Social Work degree from Rutgers University.
In my work, I have always strived to help others. Being a therapist and helping people through counseling has truly become my passion. As a first-generation Muslim-Pakistani, I have found hope and healing for my clients and for myself, through therapy.
I firmly believe that with the support of a therapist, you can break cycles and create new patterns. My job is to provide a warm, compassionate space where you can explore your emotions without judgment. I use a strengths-based approach with all my clients, and relationships are at the center of my work.
Most of my experience and expertise is with adults and teens navigating anxiety, depression, life transitions, and self-esteem challenges. I also have a particular interest in supporting women, pregnant individuals, and those experiencing postpartum depression.

My style
My style is rooted in warmth, collaboration, and cultural responsiveness. I hold space for you to explore your identities, relationships, and experiences in a way that feels grounding and supportive. I integrate CBT, strengths-based work, and relational approaches to help you process what feels heavy while reconnecting with your strengths and inner resilience. Because I believe healing is not one-size-fits-all, I shape each session around what feels most meaningful and needed for you. I also weave in mind–body and emotion-focused practices to help you strengthen your connection to your emotions and embodied experience. Above all, you are welcome to arrive exactly as you are—fully human and never judged.
