Psychologist

Life can feel overwhelming when you're carrying anxiety, trauma, grief, relationship stress, or the emotional weight of a chronic health condition. You may be tired of overthinking, feeling stuck, or pretending you're okay when you're not. I work with teens, adults, and couples who are ready for honest conversations, practical solutions, and real progress. You'll get compassion, straightforward feedback, and even a little humor along the way because healing doesn't have to feel heavy all the time.

Aliyyah Nailing-Yamini

Therapist

Virtual • Florida


Life can often feel like a series of overwhelming transitions, leaving you feeling disconnected or unsure of your next step. I provide a dedicated space for adults (22+) to slow down, reflect, and move forward with renewed clarity.

Whether you are navigating the complexities of trauma, managing a mood disorder, or facing significant life changes, my goal is to help you transform "feeling stuck" into a journey of intentional growth.

How We Will Work Together

My approach is relational, honest, and depth-oriented. Rather than just addressing surface-level symptoms, we will explore the unspoken beliefs and past experiences that quietly shape your daily life. By learning to listen to what your emotions are communicating, you can begin to respond to life’s challenges in ways that promote genuine healing and authentic connection.

Specialized Support for Couples

In addition to individual therapy, I specialize in marriage and pre-marital counseling. I help couples at all stages build resilient foundations, repair emotional disconnections, and foster a deeper sense of intimacy and mutual understanding.

**Please note: While I accept insurance for individual therapy, all couples counseling is private-pay only. Insurance does not cover relationship-focused therapy.

Your Journey Starts Here

You deserve a space where you are fully seen, heard, and empowered. No matter where you are in your journey, I am here to support you in creating meaningful, lasting change.

My experience over the past 15 years is working with adults navigating everything from everyday stress to deeper emotional wounds. Life gets complicated sometimes, but you don't have to do it alone!

Find the right couples therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your relationship — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Couples Therapist in Fort Lauderdale

Searching for couples therapists in Fort Lauderdale starts with knowing what you want to work on together. Couples therapy can support communication patterns, recurring conflict, trust after infidelity, major life changes, and parenting disagreements. Not all therapists have specific training in couples work, so look for licensed marriage and family therapists, or therapists who list approaches like the Gottman Method or emotionally focused therapy. A therapist’s profile can also help you understand how they structure sessions and how they work with both partners.

Fort Lauderdale offers local options for couples therapy, with added flexibility through virtual appointments across Florida. The right fit depends on practical details as much as clinical experience. Consider whether you prefer in-person couples therapy near home or work, whether evening or weekend times fit both schedules, and whether the therapist offers a brief consultation before the first session. Reading bios before booking can help both partners compare communication style, specialties, and session expectations.

Couples therapy in Fort Lauderdale can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network coverage is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway makes it easier to find marriage counseling in Fort Lauderdale by showing therapists who are accepting new patients and offer virtual or in-person appointments. You can enter your insurance details on Headway to confirm what coverage is available for your specific plan and see estimated costs before booking. You can review profiles, see estimated costs after entering your insurance details, and book directly when you’re ready.

If you're experiencing or worried about violence, threats, or coercion in your relationship, couples therapy isn't usually the right starting point — individual support is safer. The National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
