Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner
I have been privileged to have a chance to take care of patients over the last 8 years as a registered nurse. It has always brought me great joy and fulfillment to be part of my patient’s journey, from seeking care to getting healed, through the best care I have been able to offer at their most vulnerable time of need.
Having had firsthand experience with my fellow military colleagues, and my experience in clinical practice, the severity of mental health is not to be taken lightly. Mental health has a strong impact on individuals, families, and society as a whole. As a mental health provider, I take my time to listen to my patients with a goal of making a difference and being there every step of the way. Compassion, empathy, and customizing treatment plans to suit individual patients are my approaches to have the best outcome possible. I strongly believe in a holistic approach and combining pharmacological as well as non-pharmacological methods such as exercise, exposure to sunshine, and diet to achieve desired outcomes.

I have always believed that mental wellness is the path towards achieving a balanced and
peaceful life. Prior to becoming a provider, I spent my nursing career in the specialty I am most
passionate about, psychiatric nursing. The experience proved invaluable. Nursing provided me
insight into the unique needs of the mental health community, and the skills have shaped me as a
provider.
Regardless of background, anyone can suffer from mental illness. We all will encounter
difficulties in life, and at times need support navigating through them. This is where I can
provide my assistance, acting as a compass to help guide you through.
I believe mental health goes beyond just a diagnosis. It is about the way you feel about yourself
and your quality of life. As your provider, I make it my priority to provide a safe space, to get to
know you as a person, gain insight into your day-to-day life, concerns and goals. I will develop
an integrative approach to treatment inclusive of therapy, healthy lifestyle coaching, self-care
strategies and when necessary, medication management. I truly believe, by working together in
an effective therapeutic alliance you will be well on your way to the more peaceful and balanced
life you deserve.

Bilingual Mental Health Therapist
For over 5 years I have deliberately seeked a variety of opportunities to shape and hone my abilities to become a licensed counselor. In addition to my education in psychology and counseling, I have been assisting Dr. Bryant and his patients over the years. This experience has given me clinical knowledge and hands-on training with various disorders such as depression, anxiety, ADHD, bipolar disorder, and autism. Working at Flourish Mental Health has also given me the opportunity to be a lead social skills and Latina women support groups, as well as working as the transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) technician. It has been rewarding to help people in their most vulnerable times, aid in the treatment drug-resistant depression, and connect with patients on a cultural level. Furthermore, I have worked in the hospice setting, which allowed me to work with individuals going through grief and bereavement. Much of my training and personal style include implementing CBT, ACT, and emotion focused therapy. As I continue to work on specializing in trauma, I have started the certification process in EMDR therapy (eye movement desensitization and reprocessing). With personal experience I do have an understanding when it comes to blended families, and would like to help in that area. Whether it be stepparents trying to find their place in their new family, or navigating this new life.

In the heart of every therapeutic journey lies the transformative power of genuine human
connection. As a dedicated therapist, I believe that healing begins when individuals are seen,
heard, and understood within the context of a trusting and compassionate relationship.
I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist Associate who loves working with
adolescents, young adults, and couples. Prior to my time at Flourish, I worked at the Center for
Addictions and Recovery Lab at Texas Tech, studying addiction and the impact of childhood
trauma. After developing key foundational knowledge, I pursued my Masters in Marriage and
Family Therapy in 2021. I now have multiple years of experience working with adults,
adolescents, and couples who struggle with PTSD, ADHD, anxiety, depression, and addictions.
One of the greatest privileges of this work has been witnessing the reconnection that occurs
while working with couples who are navigating difficult periods in their relationship.
Blending elements of Internal Family Systems Therapy (IFS), Polyvagal Theory,
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), I help my
clients find a path toward healing that suits their specific goals. My approach is tailored to each
individual’s unique needs to foster deep personal growth and relational well-being. My primary
aim is to create an environment where my clients feel safe to explore their inner worlds and
initiate change.

I know that it can be daunting and nerve-wracking to take the step to start therapy, but know I am here to support you as you go through the ups and downs of that journey. Counseling is such a deeply personal experience and I believe that it is different for each and every person. This is why I aim to create a judgment-free environment in our sessions where you will feel comfortable and safe to be your true self because that is where the most growth takes place. We will collaborate to build a strong therapeutic relationship and tailor a treatment plan that meets your needs while helping you achieve your goals. Let’s work together to build up your toolbox with cognitive, behavioral, and emotional techniques that will positively impact your mental health and overall quality of life. I practice through the lens of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), and Person-Centered Therapy, but often use techniques from various theories to ensure that the complex needs of my clients are being met. I have experience working with individuals who struggle with anxiety, depression, suicidal ideation, and cultural issues. Being a young Pakistani American Muslim woman, I understand the problems that may arise from individualistic and collectivist cultures coming together, and for that reason, I am passionate about working with individuals from diverse minority backgrounds.

I have always had a deep-rooted curiosity about people and hearing their unique life story. As a Therapy Student specializing in Child and Adolescent Family Therapy I am transforming that curiosity into a passionate profession. I am devoted to working with individuals and families to strengthen their connections and help them look forward to the future with positivity and excitement for life’s potential.
A quote I love is “Children don’t need perfection, they need connection” -L.R. Knost. This has been a personal mantra in my life but also serves as a professional reminder that clients of any age desire connection as they face the highs and lows that come in different life stages. My goal as a therapist is to provide this positive connection to clients by creating a safe and accepting space for them the minute they enter the office. Let’s work together as a team to find actionable solutions to problems that just make sense. Incorporation of therapy models I use include solution-focused, cognitive behavioral and narrative therapy techniques.
Over the last 10 years I have volunteered with varying religious and social service organizations to work with women, children and groups of teens. Together we have embraced social and cultural challenges unique to their lives, worked to build confidence, develop their sense of self, tackle anxiety, depression and body image issues.
Outside of work I find joy in raising four children with my husband of 15 years, sweating it out at Bikram yoga, reading fantasy novels, baking pies and road tripping around the country; currently I am at 35 states and counting.

Therapy Student
I have always had a deep-rooted curiosity about people and hearing their unique life story. As a Therapy Student specializing in Child and Adolescent Family Therapy I am transforming that curiosity into a passionate profession. I am devoted to working with individuals and families to strengthen their connections and help them look forward to the future with positivity and excitement for life’s potential.
A quote I love is “Children don’t need perfection, they need connection” -L.R. Knost. This has been a personal mantra in my life but also serves as a professional reminder that clients of any age desire connection as they face the highs and lows that come in different life stages. My goal as a therapist is to provide this positive connection to clients by creating a safe and accepting space for them the minute they enter the office. Let’s work together as a team to find actionable solutions to problems that just make sense. Incorporation of therapy models I use include solution-focused, cognitive behavioral and narrative therapy techniques.

LICENSURE AND CERTIFICATIONS
Therapy Student - Supervised by Jessica Flores
I have previously worked as a case manager for a community assistance program supporting fathers. I was so grateful to be able to meet my clients where they were in life and guide them through their parenting journey. This passion for helping and guiding families led me to pursuing a career in counseling so that I may help clients reach their emotional and social goals. My goal is to help my clients find their own path and solutions within themselves. Counseling is not one size fits all, and I am ready to meet you wherever you are on your counseling journey.
I utilize a holistic approach to best fit the needs of my client. My methods include cognitive behavior therapy, person-centered therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, and Gestalt therapy.
