Hi there, I'm Farooq!

I provide a holistic, culturally sensitive space for healing, with expertise in addressing childhood trauma and family of origin issues. I support clients navigating challenges in their roles as professionals, siblings, parents, friends, or partners while coping with the impacts of oppressive systems.

My focus

My clients are those who need assistance navigating the challenges of their lives as professionals, siblings, parents, friends, or partners impacted by various oppressive systems. They are seeking support to address their anxiety, depression, and relationship issues.

My approach

My approach draws heavily from Liberation-Based Psychology, anti-oppression, and social justice. I have an intersectional lens as well as strong awareness and sensitivity to an individual's various identities and how they are perceived in the world.
