I’m a TEDx speaker, somatic psychotherapist, and an unshakable anti-oppression educator.
I’m a depth-seeker who loves to support people to believe in their most powerful self.
For the last 6 years, I’ve specialized in working with individuals who navigate multiple complex intersecting identities.
I call us n’betweeners. As n’betweeners we often feel that we don’t belong here nor there. We codeswitch to belong, to feel seen, to feel heard. We’re mixed-race, BIPOC, queer, immigrants, multicultural, multi/bilingual, trans or gender-nonconforming and many other identities.
I am here to support n’betweeners recognize our power and reclaim our worth.
Why have I dedicated my practice to supporting n’betweeners?
Because I myself live n’between. As a queer cis-woman of color with European-African roots from Denmark and Comoros and a current immigrant. I’ve experienced first hand the oppression my clients grapple with. My whole life I’ve lived at the edge of privilege and oppression. I’ve had to code switch between cultures and languages. I’ve been both the colonized and the colonizer as I come from one of the richest and poorest countries in the world. I am both Black, Arab and White. I am spiritual and culturally Muslim. I’m queer. I have been caught n’between my whole life and I know what it feels like to not belong. When we don’t identify with the dominant culture, we feel that we don’t fit in and we compromise our self worth.
I have experienced this oppression from a very young age. And those experiences called me. Called me to commit my life to empower n’betweeners to transform oppression into worthiness.
“I believe as an n’betweener you possess a richness like no one else. The intersection of our identities provides us a unique experience.
I am here to help you tap into that richness.”
