02 — Why work with me

Clinical training, cultural understanding.

  • Arabic and English, side by side

    Many clients in the Gulf move between Arabic and English mid-sentence. That is welcome here — you never have to translate your feelings.

  • Built for expat and demanding careers

    Long hours, relocation, distance from family and career pressure are frequent themes with clients in Dubai and Abu Dhabi.

  • Evening slots in Gulf time

    Sessions are scheduled around GST working hours, including evenings, so therapy fits your week rather than competing with it.

  • Licensed in Lebanon and France

    A master's degree in Clinical Psychology, registration with Lebanon's Ministry of Health and the Lebanese Order of Psychologists, and a French Ministry of Health licence. Both are publicly verifiable.

  • Evidence-based methods

    Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Interpersonal Psychotherapy — two of the most researched approaches for anxiety, low mood, stress and relationship difficulties.

  • Therapy and coaching under one roof

    Alongside clinical work I coach founders and professionals, drawing on a business degree and over a decade in innovation and product.

FAQ

Your questions, answered.

Are you a licensed psychologist?
Yes. I hold a master's degree in Clinical Psychology and am licensed by Lebanon's Ministry of Health, registered with the Lebanese Order of Psychologists as member 10788, and licensed by the French Ministry of Health under ADELI number 10112060776. Both registrations are publicly verifiable — the links are above.
Can I have sessions from the UAE?
Yes. Sessions are held online over a secure video call, so you can attend from anywhere in the UAE. We agree on a time that fits your local timezone and working hours.
Is online therapy as effective as meeting in person?
For most of the difficulties I treat — anxiety, low mood, stress, relationship problems — research shows online CBT works comparably to in-person sessions. What matters most is consistency and a good working relationship.
Which language will we speak?
English, Arabic, whichever you are most comfortable with. We can also mix, which many clients naturally do.
How long is a session, and how many will I need?
Sessions last 45 minutes. With CBT, many people notice meaningful improvement within 8 to 12 weekly sessions, though this depends on what you are working through. We set goals early and review progress as we go.
How do I start?
Send a message through the contact form, or call. The first consultation is a conversation about what is going on and whether working together makes sense.
