Trauma-Informed Therapy for Women of Color, Young Adults & Professionals

Are you searching for a trauma-informed, culturally affirming licensed psychotherapist who understands the unique challenges you face—like anxiety, burnout, depression, relationship struggles, identity shifts, or major life transitions?

I work with women of color, young adults, and professionals who are navigating trauma, grief, perinatal mental health, and complex family dynamics. Together, we create a space for healing, clarity, and growth.

Meet Nabilah

Licensed Psychotherapist & Trauma-Informed Clinician

As a warm and collaborative therapist, I offer a safe, supportive space where you can explore challenges, heal past wounds, and strengthen your relationship with yourself and others.

Therapy is a powerful tool for growth, and together, we’ll work to help you gain clarity, break unhelpful patterns, and move toward a life that feels more aligned and fulfilling.

Ready to Begin?

Life’s too short to feel stuck, reach out today if you’re looking for a supportive space while navigating life’s challenges.

Together, we can work toward greater self-awareness, resilience, and empowerment.

How Therapy Can Help

Many of my clients struggle with people-pleasing, setting healthy boundaries, and expressing their needs effectively. They often feel stuck in unhelpful patterns and want to break free from behaviors that no longer serve them. Others come to therapy to work through perfectionism, trauma, grief, perinatal mental health concerns, and complex family dynamics.

I specialize in providing trauma-informed, culturally affirming therapy for adults navigating a range of emotional and life challenges. I work best with those who are reflective and ready to engage in deeper self-exploration, whether they’re navigating career stress, healing from past trauma, or seeking greater self-understanding. My goal is to provide a safe, nonjudgmental space where you feel supported in your healing journey.

Therapy Services

Starting therapy is a meaningful step toward healing and self-discovery. Whether you're new to therapy or returning after time away, my goal is to make the process feel approachable, supportive, and tailored to your unique needs. 

Therapy is more than just problem-solving—it’s a space to slow down, reflect, and reconnect with yourself in a way that feels intentional and empowering.

  • 60-Minute Therapy Sessions→ A deeper dive into emotions, patterns, and healing work at a pace that feels right for you.

  • Flexible Scheduling → Sessions are designed to fit into your life in a way that feels sustainable.

The Therapy Process

step 1 

Free Consultation

A brief call to discuss your concerns and see if we’re a good therapeutic fit.

Intake Session

The first session where we explore your history, understand your current challenges, and begin shaping your goals for therapy together.

Therapy is not one-size-fits-all. We’ll collaborate to create a supportive, responsive approach that aligns with your needs—whether that’s managing anxiety, healing from past wounds, navigating identity, or strengthening relationships.

Ongoing Therapy & Growth

Through regular sessions, we’ll continue to explore, process, and build the skills that help you move toward a life that feels more fulfilling and aligned with who you are.

Taking the first step toward therapy can feel overwhelming, but you don’t have to navigate it alone. If you’re wondering what this journey might look like for you, let’s connect—I’d be honored to support you.

  • I do not accept health insurance and am considered an out-of-network provider. However, I offer superbills for clients who have out-of-network benefits and may be eligible for reimbursement. It is the client’s responsibility to confirm their out-of-network benefits with their insurance provider.

    Why I Don’t Accept Insurance

    I prioritize working directly with my clients (you) rather than within the constraints of insurance companies. Therapy is most effective when tailored to your individual needs, rather than being shaped by rigid insurance guidelines.

    While I value therapists who accept insurance, this model does not align with my long-term commitment to providing high-quality, sustainable care. Insurance-based therapy often requires providers to see 8–10 clients per day, leading to overwork, compassion fatigue, and burnout. To ensure I can offer personalized, attentive, and ethical care, I maintain a lower caseload that allows me to be fully present for each of my clients.

    If you have any questions about superbills or out-of-network reimbursement, I’m happy to guide you through the process.

  • Good Faith Estimate

    Beginning January 1, 2022, federal law requires health care practitioners to provide current and potential clients who don’t have insurance or who are not using insurance a “Good Faith Estimate” (GFE) on the cost of treatment. This law ensures transparency about treatment costs and protects clients from surprise medical bills.

You don’t have to have it all figured out to take the first step.

Therapy is an investment in yourself, and finding the right fit matters. I offer virtual sessions to make high-quality, trauma-informed care accessible no matter where you are in California.

Let’s talk — I’d love to connect.
