HI, I’M ALI

Tired of feeling stuck, repeating the same patterns over and over? Ready to finally have the support and security that you have yearned for? Let’s get started.

who are my people?

Many of my clients are intelligent, compassionate, and driven, yet they struggle to feel truly at ease. Despite their successes, anxiety, overwhelm, and self-doubt often take over, making it hard to feel present, connected, or in control. Their emotions can feel like they’re running the show, leading to patterns that no longer serve them. If this resonates with you, you’re in the right place.

MY MYERS BRIGGS
ENFJ all the way.

The doctor is effective only when he himself is affected. Only the wounded physician heals.
— Carl Jung

Why should you choose me as your therapist? Let’s help you make the big leap.

A good therapist can be invaluable on your journey through life, whether you’re recovering from a crisis or working toward a specific goal. You deserve a great therapist, and that’s me.

”Well, what exactly makes you so special, Ali?”

Good question! I love a good cost-benefit analysis.

I am thoroughly educated, trained, and skilled, but what my clients love the most about me is that I am a wounded healer.

What does this mean? A "wounded healer" is a term used to describe a healer who has personally experienced significant emotional or psychological challenges. This concept, introduced by Carl Jung, suggests that those who have undergone their own struggles can offer a unique and profound level of empathy and understanding to their clients.

My personal journey through pain and recovery enhances my ability to connect with and support others facing similar issues. Because of my past, I bring the most genuine forms of authenticity and compassion to my practice, often making me more effective in helping others.

I've dedicated myself to personal growth through my own journey in therapy, discovering a deep passion for it along the way. I believe my purpose in life is to help alleviate your suffering .

The decision to enter therapy can be a challenging one, especially if you've spoken to professionals before and left disappointed. Today, I invite you to reach out for something different. I want to offer you the valuable opportunity to look within yourself and access the strength and tools that will help you create a life of your creation. Let's connect.

  • "Ali is such a warm hearted and skilled therapist that helps her clients find their voice and power. She allows equal space for softness and fierce compassion that inspires her clients to reach their goals and dreams."
