Therapist

I'm a Palestinian/Iraqi immigrant woman that grew up Muslim in America. I provide culturally responsive therapy for immigrant women or children of immigrants, but I also have a variety of clients from all walks of life.

I am a licensed independent clinical social worker and I received my Masters Degree in Social Work from Boston College. (My first Master's Degree was in Education from Rutgers University - which means I also do a lot of psychoeducation in my sessions!) I've worked with students with disabilities, in college counseling centers, in group practices, and now I have my own private practice.

Prior to being a therapist, I worked in higher education with college students for thirteen years.

Happy patient looking away

Find an expert who truly understands maternal mental health

Headway helps you find expert-guided support for every stage of motherhood — from finding the right therapist or psychiatrist, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Postpartum Therapist in Boston

Finding postpartum therapists in Boston starts with knowing what kind of support fits your needs. Postpartum concerns can include postpartum depression, postpartum anxiety, birth-related stress, identity shifts, and relationship strain. Some people also search for a prenatal depression therapist or perinatal therapists who work with mental health concerns during pregnancy and after birth. As you compare options, look for a therapist whose listed specialties match what you want to address. A PMH-C credential can also signal specialized training in perinatal mental health.

Boston has many therapists across neighborhoods like Back Bay, Beacon Hill, Dorchester, and Jamaica Plain, which can make the search feel broad even when options are nearby. For new parents, practical details matter: appointment times, virtual availability, location, and whether the therapist is accepting new clients. Virtual care can make it easier to meet from home around infant care, physical recovery, and changing schedules. Reading therapist bios can help you understand their experience with postpartum depression, postpartum anxiety, pregnancy-related concerns, and the way they structure sessions before you book.

Therapy in Boston can be a significant cost without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps you find postpartum therapists, review real-time availability, and book care directly. You can enter your insurance details to confirm what coverage is available for your specific plan. You can enter your insurance details to see estimated out-of-pocket costs, review therapist profiles, and book a free phone consultation when you’re ready.

1 Cost may vary based on your location, age, and insurance coverage.
