Yusra Aziz, LMSW

I am an experienced therapist who's therapeutic approach centers around cultural humility and decolonized practice. I primarily work with individuals that struggle with issues related to identity, intergenerational trauma, relationships and self-esteem.

You’re ready to embrace the journey of growth. You’ve championed your way through many of life’s obstacles, but lately you’ve felt challenged finding the road back to yourself. Maybe you’ve been painfully questioning parts of your identity. Perhaps your friends and family have always known a version of you that wears a ‘mask.’ Questioning your truths may bring up feelings of self-doubt and uncertainty causing feelings of loneliness and isolation. You deserve to feel self-acceptance. I’d like to support you in leading a life where you can heal, learn healthy coping skills, and continue your journey of growth.

As a therapist with a multicultural background, I believe decolonizing therapy and centering cultural experiences is crucial. My therapeutic approach is primarily relational and integrative. I use exploratory questions to help you identify unhealthy thought patterns while supporting you with implementing mindfulness techniques and healthier habits.

Finding the right therapist is important in this growth journey. I invite you to send an email/call to make sure that engaging in this process together makes sense for you. Please note: I do speak Arabic however I am conversationally fluent in Moroccan dialect only. Together, we can assess if I am able to provide effective therapeutic services for you.
