As a Somatic Healer and Integral Coach, my approach sits at the intersection of body, lineage, psyche, social justice, and cultural identity. I blend Eastern and Western wisdom to help people reconnect with their truth through embodied, somatic practice. We live in a world that often rewards the “logical” stories we tell ourselves about our feelings (mind) over the feelings themselves (body). This leads to a lot of self-awareness without clear relief. My work invites people to come back into relationship with their bodies as a source of wisdom, release, safety, and self-trust.
Born in the U.A.E., raised across the Gulf and the U.S., and shaped by my experiences as a Pakistani-American, neurodivergent, third culture kid, my approach is grounded in a lived understanding of what it means to navigate complexity, hold multiple identities, and live between worlds. I hold a Bachelor’s in Psychology & Creative Writing from New York University, a Somatic Attachment Therapy and an IFS-Informed Somatic Trauma Therapy certification from The Embody Lab, and a PCC in Integral Coaching from New Ventures West.
With 10+ years of experience in creative strategy & leadership at PepsiCo and 5+ years working with artists, activists, filmmakers, entrepreneurs, and leaders across creative, tech, and wellness spaces, my approach combines somatic and developmental coaching with ancestral insight, psychology, and creative ritual to support people in building confidence, softening survival patterns, unlearning systemic conditioning, and stepping toward their goals with intention and ease.
