Licensed Clinical Psychologists

“I'm a licensed clinical psychologist and DBT therapist. I am intensiverly trained in Dialectical Behavioral Therapy from DBT Mena in affliation with B-Tech institute. I work with people diagnosed with borderline personality disorder/ substance-drug abuse/ chronic sense of emptiness, and many other related disorders”

About Me

If you're navigating overwhelming emotions, relationship struggles, or a chronic sense of emptiness, I can help. As a licensed clinical psychologist, I specialise in Dialectical Behavioural Therapy (DBT). My intensive training means we'll build practical skills together for stability. This approach offers a structured, compassionate space, ideal for those managing emotional dysregulation, substance use, or Borderline Personality Disorder.

Approach

When strong emotions or a chronic inner emptiness start to steer your days, therapy centers on teaching concrete DBT skills while holding space for your experience. Sessions in Beirut or online, in Arabic or English, move between focused skills practice, gentle mindfulness exercises, and careful assessment of patterns that fuel self-harm or substance use. Between meetings you’ll try short, realistic exercises and report back so we can tweak what works. People facing emotional dysregulation, trauma, or personality struggles often find this steady, practical rhythm helpful.
