meet dr. ahmed

I specialize in exploring the intricate interplay between biological, social, and psychological factors that impact health and illness. My treatment approach aims to promote overall health and well-being through behavior modification and evidence-based psychological therapies. I believe that the journey to wellness is unique for each individual and should be tailored to their specific needs. Together, we will set personalized treatment goals, overcome barriers to implementation, and track your progress towards achieving optimal health.

In psychotherapy, I prioritize building a relational connection with you. I'll consistently check in to see how our sessions are resonating and how my feedback is affecting you. I delve deeply into emotions, guiding you to be mindful of what you feel as you share your experiences. Additionally, I adopt an experiential approach, encouraging you to pause and reflect on your immediate emotional and cognitive responses. This method is essential as it enriches your learning and enhances the transformation process.
