Clinical Psychologist

"Out of your vulnerabilities will come your strength" - Sigmund Freud


I am an experienced Clinical Psychologist who provides continuing and comprehensive mental and behavioural health care for individuals, couples, families, groups as well as consultation to agencies and governmental entities.  I am enthusiastic and an excellent communicator.
I specialise in unidimensional and multidimensional theories, the analytical-pathological model (neurosis and psychosis), family resilience through dynamic mapping via genogram.
I am also practiced in communication and comprehension (education, psychology, and value of the human being).

I worked as a Clinical Psychologist in the Psychiatric Department of a well-known hospital in Lebanon, working in collaboration with the psychiatrists to treat patients suffering with addiction, manic and depressive episodes.  Simultaneously in a clinic setting I worked with trauma cases from the blast in Lebanon, from front line workers, government agencies, parents grieving and adolescent victim groups in emotional distress. I moved to Dubai recently and look forward to my journey at AWC.

I enjoy working in education, training, and supporting students through their internships. I am passionate about my personal goal to bring out the best version of oneself and help individuals reach their full potential.
