I intend to help clients address their attachment and developmental trauma, often at the root of anxiety, depression, and other challenges, using NARM (NeuroAffective Relational Model). Its heartfelt approach utilizes the shared human experience to support the client’s development and growth. . Within the modality’s framework, I create a collaborative environment where clients can reconnect to their heart’s desire as we address internal obstacles. In our exploration, the client finds healthier ways of relating to their self and environment.

Let’s be real. Life is hard. It is messy and crazy and sometimes, it just feels out of control. Your space is a mess, your roommates are on your last nerve, you have a major assignment to work on, and you just cannot get a moment to think straight. Then there’s that thought in the background that you’re not doing enough, that you’re not enough. You’re questioning yourself and feeling overwhelmed. College is hard. This phase of life is hard. Feeling the pressure to succeed can feel unbearable. This is where therapy comes in. To learn how to address these thoughts & emotions in a safe space and develop a plan of action to move forward, feeling confident in yourself.
All are welcome here. I am humbled you chose me as your witness! I am a trauma alchemist, transformative life coach and consultant whose client population mostly consists of (but is not limited to) Latinx and Black powerful cycle breakers. I engage in transformational work with survivors of childhood trauma, toxic friendships, mother-daughter dysfunction, father wound, poverty trauma, spiritual abuse, and imposter syndrome, immigration/acculturation & gaslighting. Trauma manifests in many forms including: anxiety, depression, hyper-vigilance, codependency, people pleasing, self-criticism, and difficulty regulating emotions. I am love, a mothering and caretaker archetype. My clinical approach is varied— I am trained in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing and Solution-Focused Therapy. I use all modalities based on the client’s needs and goals. I center people’s experiences and their interactions within systems of oppression. I provide a soft space for clients to land to unpack and process. I believe everyone deserves a sacred space to feel accepted, grow, and thrive. As an inclusive and affirming clinician, I am committed to journeying with you, as we tap into what makes you feel alive, vibrant and at home in yourself. In this journeying of being and embodiment, you will experience clarity, and let go of what is no longer serving you.
I hold an M.S. in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. Working with adolescent aged clients and older, I am passionate about providing an inclusive space to work with BIPOC communities with the goal of aligning multicultural approaches amidst various cultures and religions. I emphasize a core value of ensuring a safe environment of dignity and respect for each individual while exploring identities among systemic issues. In sessions, I offer compassionate and empathetic support that allows for inner healing and growth for clients. I attentively listen and collaborate side by side with clients to address emotional disturbances, school issues, life transitions, life stressors, divorce, grief, caregiving support, suicidal ideations, esteem support and coping skills. My therapeutic style is based on a DBT lens, and incorporates the perspectives of CBT, Humanistic, Psychodynamic, and creative art mediums. I also have additional science-focused education and training that emphasizes biological knowledge with the working elements of therapy. I strive to combine the psychological and social components of counseling with scientific connections to ensure a deeper understanding of presenting situations. Through collaborative approaches, Farrah is dedicated to work together with clients in exploring restorative growth and remedy.
The beauty of therapy is its ability to provide a safe space, unbiased, listening ears, and dedicated time to focus on you. I believe the therapeutic relationship is central. It creates the foundation necessary to promote mental and emotional growth and well-being. Therefore, each session we will work to build an alliance, which will become instrumental for making progress and attaining your identified goals. Using an integrative approach will allow me to tailor our time together to best meet your needs. I will highlight your strengths and provide you with the tools necessary to strengthen the areas you wish to improve. In addition to others, I have a special interest in working with those invested in holistic health, more specifically a mind/body connection. I am here to support, guide, and encourage you throughout this journey, as you take control. Reaching out takes courage; it is the first step in the direction of growth and positive changes. I look forward to creating a space where listening is focal, empathy is provided, improvements are acknowledged, goals are accomplished, and individuality is celebrated. Come as you are!
Clients tend to approach me with conundrums that need to be fully understood: “I know what I’m feeling but I don’t know why”; “I keep finding myself in hurtful relationships and I want something different next time around”; “I’m tired of how I’m living and I’m afraid to change”; “I want to feel less lonely”; “I don’t like myself”; “The people I am closest to don’t really know me.” They want to live brightly and with much aliveness, and value being supported, known, and attuned to as they work on changing shape. I work with clients on a range of concerns including, but not limited to, relationships difficulties, depression, anxiety, panic, aftermath of abuse or neglect in family of origin, and transitions/loss across lifespan. I am currently accepting clients in New York.
