About Me
I’m an Arabic Muslim Egyptian woman, my motive in therapy and healing process is a phrase in Quran (And whoever saves one - it is as if he had saved mankind entirely)
Education & Experience
For +15 years, I have been working with different kinds of clients in governmental, private, and NGOs sectors but since 2015, my work has become more focused on humans who were exposed to trauma and adversities. I have been passionate about learning different modalities to be able to provide help for my clients. My clients are adolescents, children, adults mostly with trauma history either developmental, domestic/sexual violence, torture, and war survivors.
I’ve been working online only since 2020.
Over the past years, I had many trauma focused training (EMDR for children &adolescent level 1, Flash technique, GTEP, GREP, PRECI, ASSYST, ai-EMDR), IFS up to ACC, and SEP. I have also provided many training and consultations (individual/peer) for trauma therapists in the private and government sectors.
