I'm a clinical psychologist and psychotherapist based in Cyprus, licensed both in both Lebanon and Cyprus. I offer online and hybrid therapy and counseling sessions in Arabic, English, and French.

Grounded in psychodynamic psychotherapy, my approach provides a supportive space to explore the deeper layers of your emotional life, unconscious patterns, past experiences, internal conflicts, and unspoken needs that shape how you relate to yourself and others.

Drawing from a broader integrative psychotherapy lens, I tailor our work to your unique history, goals, and lived experience. This approach supports deeper self-understanding, lasting emotional change, and an authentic sense of mental wellbeing.

Experience

My clinical background includes working in psychiatric hospitals, on national programs like the Lebanese National Mental Health Programme (NMHP), and with international NGOs in humanitarian emergency contexts. This experience has strengthened my commitment to offering psychotherapy that is both culturally sensitive and emotionally attuned, whether you're facing long-term emotional struggles or navigating a short-term life challenge.

For individuals, we’ll explore what’s beneath the surface—helping you understand yourself more deeply and improve your mental health and wellbeing. For couples, we’ll work together to support stronger communication, emotional safety, and connection.

Together, we can explore:
• Stress. anxiety, and burnout
• Low mood and emotional struggles
• Grief & loss
• Identity & sexuality
• Relationship and couples issues
• Past trauma and unresolved experiences
• Attachment and abandonment wounds
