all about Ali

Ali is an associate therapist passionate about helping people make sense of who they are and what they want from life. Her work centers on gently guiding clients to explore the stories they’ve inherited and internalized, whether from family, culture, or past experiences,and empowering them to rewrite those narratives in alignment with who they truly are.

 

Guided by a deep commitment to client-centered care, Ali supports individuals navigating symptoms of anxiety, life transitions, trauma, and healing in every aspect of their lives. She works with clients to clarify their goals, reconnect with what matters most, and grow the confidence and tools needed to lead more meaningful, fulfilling lives. Whether you’re feeling stuck or just trying to figure things out, she’s here to support you in getting clear on your goals, building self-trust, and creating a life that feels more authentic and fulfilling.

how she works

Ali’s approach is integrative, drawing from Internal Family Systems (IFS), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), mindfulness practices, and attachment theory. Her work is rooted in existential and trauma-informed frameworks, helping clients explore not only their patterns and pain, but also their purpose, values, and inner wisdom.

 

In sessions, Ali shows up with warmth, curiosity, and compassion. She views the therapeutic space as a collaborative journey,one where clients are the experts of their own experience and the therapist’s role is to guide, reflect, and support. Whether you’re feeling lost in life, questioning your identity, or working through complex emotions, Ali will meet you with presence and patience as you uncover deeper understanding, acceptance, and growth.
