Holistic Practices
“Hi! My name is Afsha. I am a multilingual therapist. I use a holistic, anti-oppressive framework to help clients reach their goals.”
“ I help clients who are ready to explore longstanding patterns that are no longer serving them, process unresolved trauma, or clients who want to find ways to change their stress/anxiety responses. I use DBT, TF-CBT, and mindfulness/movement to support clients.
I find it important to incorporate varied healing practices and strategies to create a unique and individualized therapeutic experience for clients.
I have extensive experience working with the Latinx population. I am authentic, relatable, and when appropriate use laughter to promote healing. Therapy shouldn't be cold or clinical - that's not my style. If you are tired of feeling stuck and want to move towards a sense of wellbeing, please reach out for a free 15 minute consultation. I am here to support you.”
Client Testimonials
“My therapist supports me and helps me be secure in and at peace with my queer, bipoc, and neurodivergent identities. I have seen drastic improvements in my codependence since I began working with her only a few months ago.”
