Treatment Philosophy & Focus

Aisha believes that everyone can have a second chance at the things they want and to become a better version of themselves. To her it just takes support, and working collaboratively and honestly with her clients. Aisha strives to meet her clients where they are and focuses on their progress or small changs. Her motto is that “small progress” can lead to big change. Ultimately, her goal is to use a mixture of evidence-based practices, with a non-bias approach, that is tailored to each client’s individual needs and treatment. Aisha works with adults, individuals, families, couples and children ages 4 and up.
