I believe therapy should feel safe, collaborative, and empowering. My approach is grounded in empathy, respect, and genuine connection, and I tailor my work to each person's unique needs and goals. I welcome patients exactly as they are and create space where they can feel heard, understood, and supported. Clients often describe me as warm, honest, compassionate, and easy to talk to. I bring creativity and a down-to-earth presence to each session, helping patients feel comfortable as they work through life's challenges.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 12 years of experience supporting adults navigating stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, and chronic illness. I have worked with individuals from many backgrounds, including Veterans and caregivers. I begin by learning what matters most to each patient and exploring what may be getting in the way of their well-being. I incorporate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Solution-Focused Therapy, and mindfulness practices to build practical tools for change. My goal is to help patients reconnect with balance, purpose, and joy while guiding them toward meaningful, lasting growth.

I create a safe, supportive space where clients can share their experiences openly. I emphasize building rapport and mutual understanding, empowering clients to explore their strengths while navigating challenges such as stress, anxiety, trauma, relationship issues, grief, and self-esteem concerns. My approach is collaborative, compassionate, and tailored to each individual's needs. I combine evidence-based therapies including ACT, CBT, DBT, EFT, Narrative Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, and Trauma-Informed approaches. Sessions focus on helping clients process emotions, develop coping skills, and achieve meaningful, lasting change. My goal is to support clients in managing life challenges, improving mental wellness, and cultivating self-love and resilience.

I am Entisar Hamid, Ed.D., LPC, LCPC, LPCC, LMHC, NCC, a dedicated psychotherapist and life coach committed to fostering change in the community. I am licensed in Arizona, Illinois, Ohio, and Indiana, and have over 13 years of experience supporting clients remotely and in person. I value holistic, culturally sensitive care and believe each client is the expert in their own story.

In my free time, I enjoy cooking for my family and engaging with my community.

I provide a safe, non-judgmental atmosphere where clients feel heard and supported. I bring a wealth of personal and professional experiences that have shaped my insight, knowledge, and empathy, enabling me to walk alongside others during their most difficult times. I believe that everyone has a story, and that life's challenges can sometimes become overwhelming, leading to feelings of hopelessness, helplessness, and despair.

I specialize in treating a wide range of concerns, including anxiety, depression, anger management, addiction, bipolar disorder, antisocial behaviors, family relationships, grief and bereavement, life transitions, job and employment issues, medical and physical health concerns, PTSD, somatic symptom disorders, learning disorders, stress, and trauma. My goal is to create a therapeutic space where clients feel empowered to explore challenges and build resilience.

I use a variety of evidence-based approaches tailored to each individual's needs. My methods include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Therapy, Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, Emotionally Focused Therapy, Mindfulness, Family Systems, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Trauma-Informed Care, Behavioral Modification, Internal Family Systems, Strength-Based approaches, and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT). I collaborate with clients to develop practical, effective solutions for growth and healing.

I take a person-centered approach, prioritizing a safe, welcoming environment where patients feel heard and understood. Through empathy and active listening, I ensure all patients feel respected throughout their therapeutic journey. I emphasize collaborative goal-setting to identify and achieve tangible, meaningful outcomes that align with each individual's needs.

In the initial session, I focus on building rapport and establishing open communication. I gain insight into a patient's background, history, and current concerns, then collaborate with them to set realistic goals. Treatment plans are tailored and flexible, evolving to meet each patient's unique needs while supporting long-term growth and well-being.

I have extensive experience in intensive outpatient, residential, and inpatient settings, and have worked with individuals facing diverse therapeutic needs, including anxiety, depression, borderline personality disorder, and PTSD. I earned my master's degree from Thomas Jefferson University, which provides a strong foundation in trauma-focused counseling.

I value open and honest communication and partner with clients to set clear treatment goals that support their personal growth. I create a warm, supportive environment where clients feel heard, respected, and empowered to reach their full potential. I begin by thoroughly understanding each client's history, concerns, and goals during the initial session to foster a trusting relationship, then develop individualized treatment plans that align with clients' objectives, guiding them toward their best possible self.

I have over 10 years of experience practicing in outpatient and inpatient settings, utilizing modalities such as CBT and Solution-Focused Therapy. I earned a Bachelor of Science in Social Sciences/Human Services and a Master of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling, both from Mercer University, and am completing a Doctorate in Marriage & Family Therapy from North Central University, expected in 2026.

I enjoy working with patients who have anxiety, depression, insomnia, mood disorders, and self-esteem issues. I am trained in geriatrics and especially love working with adults over the age of 65. I am trained in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Mind-Body Approach, Mindfulness-Based Therapy, and Prolonged Grief Disorder (where the patient is experiencing grief for at least 12 months). As I am trained in several different treatment modalities, I can customize therapy to meet everyone's needs.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who has worked in the mental health field since 2013. I completed my undergraduate and graduate education in Alabama. During graduate school, I completed internships at the Tuscaloosa County jail, the University of Alabama Student Veterans Center, and the Birmingham Veterans Affairs Medical Center in their Health Care for Homeless Veterans program. In 2013, I moved to Arizona to work with the Department of Veterans Affairs to continue working with homeless veterans. I also have experience teaching at Pima Community College and serve as a clinical supervisor for associate level clinicians through the Arizona Board of Behavioral Health Examiners. My prior working experience and training has been with adults, homeless veterans, Native Americans, LGBTQIA, women, and individuals in rural or remote areas, providing access to much needed mental health services in provider shortage areas.

I create a nonjudgmental and realistic environment for patients to explore their needs and growth. All identities are respected and honored in the therapeutic relationship. Patients can expect support, understanding, and collaboration as they work toward meaningful change. I use a patient-centered approach, emphasizing the therapeutic relationship and aligning treatment plans with patient goals. Initial sessions focus on building rapport and gathering background information. Subsequent sessions are tailored to advancing goals and fostering personal growth.

I had a successful legal career before returning to school to earn my Master's in Counseling from Northwestern University. I have experience working with teens, adults, and the LGBTQIA+ community, bringing a diverse and inclusive perspective to my practice.

I believe therapy is both a journey and a destination. My therapeutic approach integrates psychodynamic, cognitive behavioral, interpersonal, strengths-based, dialectical behavioral, and EMDR modalities. I am dedicated to providing culturally sensitive, neurodivergent-friendly, person-centered care to support individuals and families navigating trauma, anxiety, depression, mood disorders, panic attacks, grief, family conflict, and life transitions. I take an eclectic approach, tailoring interventions and communication to best fit each patient's needs and preferences. Through motivational interviewing and narrative techniques, I help individuals articulate their stories, identify strengths, and reframe challenges as opportunities for growth. I am committed to meeting patients where they are while supporting them in reaching their goals.

My process begins with building rapport, listening to each patient's story, and understanding their unique needs and hopes for therapy. Early sessions focus on creating a safe, supportive space while developing a treatment plan tailored to the individual. Patients can expect an atmosphere of warmth, empathy, and collaboration, as well as fresh perspectives, practical coping strategies, and deeper self-awareness. My goal is for patients to feel heard, understood, and empowered as they strengthen relationships, build resilience, and move toward a greater sense of fulfillment.

I began my journey in mental healthcare with a Bachelor's in Psychology followed by a Master of Social Work degree. From 2015 to 2018, I completed my clinical hours at a community mental health agency in Los Angeles, where I gained experience working with diverse populations facing complex challenges.

I understand that beginning counseling can feel intimidating, and I strive to create a safe, welcoming environment where therapy moves at the patient's pace. I primarily use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy while incorporating elements of Behavioral Therapy, Solution-Focused approaches, Strength-Based methods, Motivational Interviewing, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy. Drawing on my multicultural background, I respect and honor each individual's unique experiences and cultures. I believe no concern is too large or too small to address in therapy and emphasize collaboration at every stage.

I view the first appointment as a chance to build trust, explore how the patient and I can work together, and establish goals for therapy. I provide a clear framework for what to expect, welcome questions, and encourage open communication throughout the process. Understanding that sharing personal history can be difficult, I am committed to moving at a pace that feels comfortable and supportive for each patient.

I bring more than 20 years of experience to my work as a therapist, having served in inpatient, outpatient, emergency, hospital, and community mental health settings, as well as leadership roles such as managing the social services department at a crisis stabilization facility. I earned my MS in Clinical/Counseling Psychology and Ed.S. in School Psychology from Valdosta State University, and a BA in Psychology and Sociology from Loyola University in New Orleans. I hold licenses in Georgia, North Carolina, Florida, and South Carolina (LPC, LCMHC, LMHC, CPCS) and am also trained in Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT).

My experience spans nearly two decades working with many who struggle to find their way through different life challenges. I will collaborate with you to identify and attain goals. Getting to know you is the first step, and that is achieved through a variety of approaches grounded in family systems, cognitive behavioral therapy, and understanding any types of trauma that may have been experienced. Many have had trauma, and what I have learned is that talking about the details of the trauma is not always helpful. It may be a component of healing, but there may be other ways to make progress. I utilize a combination of approaches to be helpful in working with clients. Some may include person-centered, solution focused, motivational interviewing, cognitive behavioral therapy, and EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing). I work with ages 18 and up on mental health issues like depression, anxiety, grief, stress management, trauma, communication, and relationship issues. I enjoy seeing a client shift perspectives and report feeling more at peace as they reach their goals.

I have experience in different treatment settings in Ohio and enjoy working with those who have mental health and substance use disorders. I completed my doctorate degree in Counselor Education & Supervision in Counseling and Marriage and Family Therapy in 2012.

I believe that thriving begins with feeling heard, validated, and understood. I prioritize building a safe, supportive space and a collaborative therapeutic relationship where clients feel empowered. I welcome clients from all walks of life, offering culturally sensitive care while encouraging insight, self-compassion, and personal empowerment. I work collaboratively with patients to understand their concerns, explore their background, and set meaningful, individualized goals, identifying and tracking progress and growth over time. I integrate evidence-based therapies such as CBT, DBT, and mindfulness while centering each client's unique story, and through a person-centered approach I am committed to compassionate support, empowerment, and advocacy as clients move toward greater well-being.

I specialize in culturally sensitive and trauma-informed care, helping individuals navigate anxiety, depression, grief, and life transitions. With a strong foundation in evidence-based practices, I am dedicated to fostering resilience and meaningful growth in my patients. Raised in New York City, I bring a warm, down-to-earth approach that is tailored to each individual's needs.

I offer a safe, supportive environment where individuals can process deeply personal experiences without fear of judgment. My warm, compassionate approach ensures each story feels valued and respected, fostering trust and connection from the very first session. I begin by gaining a thorough understanding of a patient's history, current concerns, and goals for therapy, then collaborate with patients to create a personalized treatment plan, integrating evidence-based modalities such as EMDR, CBT, IFS, psychoeducation, and mindfulness-based interventions to promote healing and growth.

I have experience providing trauma-informed, culturally responsive care to adults and couples in both outpatient and inpatient settings, with advanced training in trauma-focused therapies, including EMDR, as well as grief and relational conflict.

I have experience treating anxiety, depression, stress, trauma, life transitions, and self-esteem, and my clinical work draws from evidence-based approaches including CBT, DBT, ACT, mindfulness-based therapy, motivational interviewing, and strengths-based care.

I hold a Master of Social Work from The Ohio State University and am licensed as an LISW-S in Ohio and an LCSW in Maine and Virginia. I have five years of experience working with adults, primarily in community mental health, healthcare, and outpatient substance use and mental health settings.

I begin with a comprehensive initial session to understand each person's concerns, history, and goals. I partner with patients to develop individualized treatment plans and use ongoing sessions to build skills, deepen insight, and track progress. Treatment is regularly reviewed and adjusted as needs and goals evolve.

I value open communication and help clients set clear treatment goals. I foster a collaborative environment using narrative counseling, Internal Family Systems, and "parts work" to help clients re-story their experiences. I also offer EFT Tapping for trauma, anxiety, depression, and pain. I work from the belief that clients are the experts in their own lives and promote self-determination through Motivational Interviewing, Harm Reduction, and Energy Psychology. I begin by understanding what brings clients to therapy and building a strong therapeutic relationship. I tailor Narrative Counseling and EFT sessions to each individual, collaboratively creating personalized treatment plans with achievable, transformational goals. My approach is holistic, supportive, and designed to empower clients to recognize their strengths and motivation for meaningful change.

I have a particular passion and specialty in working with the LGBTQ population, and I also enjoy helping patients address depression and mood concerns, anxiety disorders, trauma, self-criticism and shame, grief and loss, major life transitions, social discontent, and medical conditions such as HIV/AIDS. I work with adults across the lifespan and strive to create an affirming and inclusive therapeutic environment. My work with each patient is individualized and guided by their needs and collaboratively defined goals. Patients can expect a warm, authentic, and direct therapeutic style. My approach is primarily skills-based, most often drawing from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, within a client-centered and attachment-focused relationship. Therapy often explores how perspective, assumptions, and self-narratives contribute to distress, with practical action plans to support growth. I view therapy as a collaborative process aimed at meaningful change and a more fulfilling, values-driven life.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 15 years of experience across a wide range of mental health and social service settings, including academic outpatient clinics, community health centers, residential programs, clinical research, the VA, EAP services, and HIV/AIDS service organizations.

I offer a compassionate, client-centered approach that honors each person's unique journey. I am passionate about supporting individuals through significant life changes, addressing interpersonal challenges, and helping clients develop deeper self-understanding and resilience. Patients can expect a respectful, collaborative environment where they feel heard, supported, and empowered. I begin by learning each patient's best hopes for therapy while gaining an understanding of their personal history and current concerns. I work collaboratively with patients to develop an individualized treatment plan that aligns with their goals, values, and vision for growth, adjusting the approach as needed over time.
