A Little About Me

Hi, I’m Khadijah! I’m a mental health counselor with over 15 years of experience in the field, working in mental health treatment centers and dual diagnosis treatment settings. I earned my Master’s degree in Counseling from Northwestern University in 2022, where I also completed my clinical internship. My passion is helping people navigate life’s challenges and uncover their authentic selves in a safe, supportive space.

My Approach to Therapy

• Person-Centered & Collaborative – Therapy should be a partnership, where you feel heard, supported, and in control of your own healing journey.

• A Safe, Non-Judgmental Space – I strive to create an environment where you can work through challenges at your own pace, free from stigma or judgment.

• Empowerment & Self-Discovery – I believe that you have the power to define who you are—beyond past pain, negative experiences, or labels imposed by others.

Who I Work With

I support adults facing a variety of challenges, including:

• Anxiety & Depression – Managing overwhelming thoughts and emotions.

• Life Transitions – Adjusting to major life changes with confidence.

• Trauma & Grief – Healing from painful past experiences and losses.

• Addiction & Recovery – Navigating the journey toward healing and self-empowerment.

• Relationship Challenges – Strengthening self-worth and improving personal connections.

How We’ll Work Together

I use a blend of evidence-based techniques tailored to your unique needs, including:

• Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) – Restructuring negative thought patterns to promote positive change.

• Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) – Learning to accept emotions while committing to meaningful action.

• Mindfulness – Cultivating self-awareness and presence to manage stress and emotions.

• Motivational Interviewing – Empowering you to make meaningful changes in your life.

Your Healing Journey

I believe healing is a process of self-discovery and transformation. My role is to support and guide you as you break free from past pain and step into a life that feels more authentic, fulfilling, and aligned with who you truly are.

If you’re ready to start your healing journey, I’m here to walk alongside you. Whether you’re navigating life’s transitions, working through trauma, or simply looking for support, you don’t have to do it alone. Let’s take the first step together.
