We believe a healthy marriage begins long before the wedding day. Our 3 – 5 session pre-marital counseling program helps couples deepen their understanding of each other, strengthen communication, and prepare for a thriving partnership.

We’ve developed a structured curriculum designed to guide you through key areas of marriage – exploring personal values, family expectations, conflict-resolution styles, and future goals. Couples leave feeling more confident, better prepared, and equipped with practical tools for navigating married life together.

Group Counseling

Our multicultural group sessions bring diverse voices together in a safe, judgment‑free space, fostering connection, empathy, and shared growth. Guided by ethically grounded, client‑centered facilitators, each group explores common challenges—stress, grief, identity, or relationship dynamics—while honoring the unique cultural, spiritual, and personal values of every participant. By learning from one another’s experiences, members build resilience, develop practical coping tools, and discover a supportive community that amplifies healing.

Salma Mohiuddin, LCSW
LCSW

Salma Mohiuddin

Clinical Supervisor

Twenty years of experience in clinical, community, and government settings shaped Salma’s approach to mental health care—one that honors both what healing looks like in practice and what it takes to sustain it over time. She founded Salam Therapy after recognizing that meaningful mental health work happens when clinical care meets genuine community investment. Throughout her career in Canada and the United States, she’s been honored to contribute to clinical and community development initiatives.

Salma specializes in couples, adults, and teens navigating neurodivergence, trauma, mood disorders, and relationship issues. She approaches each with the understanding that neurodivergence isn’t a problem to fix but a way of being to understand. Trauma isn’t discussed as abstract pathology but lived reality. Mood disorders aren’t reduced to symptoms but honored as experiences that reshape how people move through their days.

While Salma personally accepts only a limited number of new clients to maintain direct supervision of the practice, Salam Therapy now works with a team of carefully selected clinicians who share her vision. She continues to oversee clinical work, provide supervision, and guide treatment approaches, ensuring that growth hasn’t compromised quality or cultural responsiveness. Clients benefit from greater availability while still receiving care rooted in twenty years of accumulated expertise and community-centered values.

For Salma, multiplying impact means training the next generation of clinicians while maintaining standards that honor each person’s full identity. The practitioners at Salam Therapy carry forward that commitment—combining clinical skill with genuine investment in lasting transformation. If you’re seeking therapy that balances accessibility with experienced oversight, inquire about availability with our team. Quality care shouldn’t require waiting indefinitely.

Allison Pater

Mental Health Therapist

If you’re living with ADHD or feeling overwhelmed by constant mental noise, emotional intensity, or relationship strain, you don’t have to keep managing it alone. Allison works with adolescents, adults, and couples navigating ADHD and other forms of neurodivergence—especially when it shows up as anxiety, mood swings, impulsivity, disconnection, or conflict in relationships. She specializes in identifying and treating ADHD across the lifespan, including when it co-occurs with anxiety, bipolar disorder, borderline personality traits, and trauma.

Whether you’ve been formally diagnosed or are questioning if ADHD is part of your experience, Allison helps you understand your patterns with clarity and without judgment. Together, you’ll explore how your brain works, how your environment has shaped you, and how your relationships are impacted. Clients frequently describe Allison as highly approachable—therapy shouldn’t feel intimidating or clinical. Many share that they feel able to ask questions, express doubts, and be honest about setbacks without fear of disappointing her.

For couples, this often means reducing blame, improving communication, and rebuilding connection. You’ll gain practical tools to improve focus, emotional regulation, and follow-through while building a more compassionate understanding of yourself or your partner. Whether you’re an individual seeking clarity about your own neurodivergent experience or a couple trying to understand how ADHD affects your relationship dynamics, Allison’s approach remains consistent—practical, compassionate, and grounded in evidence-based methods that translate into real-world change.

ADHD isn’t a character flaw or something to overcome—it’s a different way of experiencing the world that deserves understanding and skilled support. If you’re ready to stop fighting yourself and start working with your brain instead, Allison welcomes the chance to meet and explore whether you might be a good fit. Let’s figure out what comes next.

Megan Minniear

Mental Health Therapist

Megan works with adolescents, adults, and couples navigating PTSD, complex trauma, bipolar disorder, and borderline personality disorder. Whether you’re struggling with intense emotions, mood instability, relationship challenges, or the lasting effects of trauma, she helps clients find greater stability, healthier relationships, and a stronger sense of self. Her approach is practical, goal-oriented, and focused on developing tools that continue serving clients long after therapy ends. She helps identify what’s keeping people stuck and creates clear, achievable steps toward the life they want.

Megan believes therapy should be more than a place to vent week after week. Feeling heard matters, but real growth comes from increasing self-awareness, recognizing patterns, and learning effective skills that work in everyday life. She’s not afraid to challenge clients when needed, helping them take accountability and consider new perspectives that might initially feel uncomfortable. If you’re looking for a therapist who is genuinely invested in moving you forward rather than simply reflecting your words back to you, her approach is designed for that purpose.

Therapy is an investment in yourself, and Megan treats it that way. Rather than staying stuck in the same conversations repeatedly, she and her clients work on building skills and insights that can be applied in daily life for years to come. Sessions are active, collaborative, and purposeful—with clarity about goals and measurable progress toward them.

Megan brings extensive clinical expertise combined with a direct therapeutic style that honors both compassion and accountability. If you’re ready for therapy that prioritizes tangible change over comfortable familiarity, she welcomes you to explore whether her approach aligns with your healing goals. Reach out to schedule a consultation and discover what lasting transformation looks like for you.

Bethany Williams

Mental Health Therapist

There’s a particular exhaustion that comes from holding it together on the outside while everything unravels internally. Maybe you’re watching your child struggle with impulsivity and emotional swings, or you’re an adult whose ADHD was missed for years. Maybe you’re carrying grief no one acknowledges, sitting with thoughts that scare you, or holding a relationship together while everything shifts. Something in you is still reaching for change—Bethany recognizes that drive.

Her practice centers on children and adults navigating ADHD, mood disorders, suicidal ideation, relationship difficulties, school and workplace transitions, and grief. Bethany also specializes in working with the African American community and other communities of color and minority populations. Clients never spend sessions explaining context that should already be understood—their full experience is recognized from the moment they walk in.

The therapeutic approach draws on three complementary frameworks. CBT maps and reshapes patterns between what clients think, feel, and do. DBT builds skills for emotional intensity, communication, and distress tolerance. Narrative therapy examines the stories clients have inherited about who they are and asks whether they’re truths or scripts handed to them. With children, these methods are adapted to be developmentally appropriate and engaging.

Seeking therapy carries different weight in communities where resilience has always been expected and vulnerability rarely felt safe. Bethany acknowledges that showing up is an act of courage that breaks cycles. Her work balances competence with cultural understanding, where the space is safe and the work is serious.

For those seeking therapy where their world is understood without requiring explanation, Bethany welcomes the conversation. If this feels like the right fit for you or your child, she invites you to reach out and explore how her practice can support meaningful change.

Leena Aljebawi

Mental Health Therapist

Leena specializes in supporting first-generation immigrants and minority communities navigating the unique complexities of bicultural identity and acculturative stress. She works with individuals, adolescents, and couples who feel trapped by anxiety, depression, trauma, or addiction. Her ideal clients recognize these emotional burdens block their ability to truly thrive and seek a safe, non-judgmental space to explore painful memories without shame. Together, they develop healthier coping skills and move toward greater self-awareness, resilience, and long-term fulfillment.

Leena utilizes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and evidence-based modalities to help clients identify unhelpful thoughts, build practical tools, and reshape behavior patterns. Every intervention is tailored to honor cultural values, beliefs, and personal context, ensuring therapy feels relevant rather than generic. Sessions are conducted in both Arabic and English, removing language barriers for those who carry deep emotional truths in one language. She understands the specific pressures facing minority groups—balancing family expectations, navigating systemic challenges, and reconciling differing worlds—and creates a therapeutic space where these realities are acknowledged openly without requiring explanation or education.

Therapy is a courageous step, and Leena honors every story with unconditional acceptance and respect for cultural identity. She believes effective therapy meets people where they are linguistically and culturally while maintaining rigorous clinical standards. Clients find a collaborative partnership focused on healing that validates their lived experience and fosters genuine connection. If you are ready to explore, grow, and reclaim the life you deserve, she welcomes you to begin this journey. Bilingual services ensure no barrier prevents access to meaningful care. Reach out to schedule a consultation and discover whether her approach aligns with your healing goals and supports meaningful and lasting change today.

Asma Odeh

Mental Health Therapist

Maybe you’re navigating life between two cultures, carrying the weight of expectations from home while building a new world abroad. Or perhaps you’re grieving a loss that feels isolating because the people around you don’t speak the language of your pain. Asma understands that unique tension—she speaks both Arabic and English, and works intentionally with immigrant and minority communities who deserve therapy that meets them where they are.

Asma specializes in trauma, grief, and relationship issues with teens and adults. Whether it’s a teenager struggling to connect with parents across cultural divides, an adult processing intergenerational wounds, or a couple trying to rebuild trust after conflict, she approaches each situation with cultural fluency and clinical depth. She knows that for many in her community, seeking therapy itself carries complicated feelings—pressure to handle things privately, fear of stigma, or skepticism about whether anyone could truly understand. Those barriers are welcome here, addressed with patience and respect.

Her therapeutic approach blends three evidence-based frameworks into something practical and accessible. Narrative therapy invites clients to examine the stories they’ve inherited about themselves and their families—and to question which ones still serve them. Psychodynamic theory helps uncover how past experiences shape present patterns, especially in relationships that feel stuck. CBT offers concrete tools for interrupting unhelpful thought loops and building new responses. Together, these methods work with clients’ full identities rather than requiring them to set parts of themselves aside.

Bilingual sessions are available in Arabic and English, allowing deeper expression for those who carry certain truths in one language or the other. Reaching out is brave. Asma believes healing begins when you finally feel seen—not as a diagnosis, but as a person with a story worth understanding. If this resonates, she welcomes the chance to meet and explore whether her practice might support you or someone you love.

Rui Gui

Mental Health Therapist

You may be carrying experiences that feel too heavy to manage alone—navigating life as an immigrant or refugee, healing from trauma or domestic violence, facing serious illness or loss, or supporting a loved one with developmental disabilities. Clients come to Rui exhausted but hopeful: tired of managing alone, yet believing things can change. Rui believes you deserve a therapist who truly sees you—your culture, your resilience, your humanity. She meets you without judgment and helps identify what’s keeping you stuck, building on your existing strengths to create a path forward. You don’t have to carry this alone.

Rui provides culturally responsive, trauma-informed therapy, specializing in immigrant and refugee mental health, trauma recovery, domestic violence support, severe mental illness, substance use, grief, and developmental disabilities. Certified in Cultural Intelligence with broad clinical experience, she honors your identity in a safe space. Her approach integrates evidence-based modalities that translate into everyday language: CBT for reframing unhelpful thought patterns, ACT for accepting difficult emotions while moving toward what matters, EMDR for processing trauma without reliving every detail, and DBT skills for emotional regulation and relationship stability. These aren’t abstract theories—they’re practical tools that work outside the session.

Reaching out takes courage. Maybe you’ve considered therapy for months, or something made you realize you can’t continue alone. This step is strength, not weakness. From those she’s walked alongside, Rui has learned that healing is possible. Growth is possible. You don’t need everything figured out before reaching out. If this resonates, take the next step with a free consultation. Let’s explore whether Rui might be the right fit for you or your loved one.

She is particularly passionate about helping neurodivergent individuals better understand themselves, build on their strengths, and develop strategies that improve both daily functioning and overall quality of life.

Mackenzie takes a practical, strengths-based approach to therapy, helping clients move beyond simply managing symptoms to creating meaningful, sustainable change. She works collaboratively with clients to better understand the connection between their thoughts, emotions, behaviors, and relationships, while identifying realistic goals and actionable steps toward achieving them.

Her clinical approach integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT), Motivational Interviewing, mindfulness-based interventions, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills. She tailors treatment to each individual, combining evidence-based interventions with practical tools that clients can confidently apply outside of therapy.

Mariam Bachir-Malam

Mental Health Therapist

If you’re navigating anxiety, depression, or the weight of relationship challenges—and especially if you’ve ever felt like you’d have to explain your whole cultural or religious background before a therapist could truly understand you—that space exists. Mariam works with couples, adults, and teens, specializing in mood disorders, anxiety, depression, and relationship issues. She also focuses on supporting first-generation immigrants navigating the complex tensions of straddling two worlds. As a therapist who works with communities of color and people from minority backgrounds, her aim is to create a space where clients don’t have to educate her on who they are in order to be heard. Clients bring their experience; she brings cultural awareness that allows them to get straight to the work.

Mariam’s approach integrates CBT, DBT, somatic therapy, and psychodynamic theory. CBT identifies and shifts unhelpful thought and behavior patterns. DBT builds concrete skills for emotional regulation and distress tolerance. Somatic work addresses how stress and trauma live in the body, not just the mind. Psychodynamic theory explores how past experiences and unconscious patterns shape the present. Together, these frameworks allow work across the full spectrum of what clients carry—from immediate symptoms to deeper roots.

Therapy with Mariam is solution-focused and active. She believes clients shouldn’t just sit with pain—they should work through it. You deserve a space where your identity is understood, not interrogated, and where the focus stays on helping you move forward. If this resonates, reach out for a consultation. Let’s see if we’re a good fit.

For those seeking therapy that respects identity while delivering tangible change, Mariam welcomes the conversation.

Komal Kaur

Mental Health Therapist

Komal offers culturally attuned, compassionate care as a Sikh-Punjabi first-generation immigrant therapist. Working bilingually in English and Punjabi, she creates a safe, non-judgmental space for adults, teens, couples, and families navigating anxiety, depression, mood disorders, relationship strain, or the lingering effects of intergenerational trauma. Her practice is grounded in a trauma-informed, strengths-based orientation that honors each person’s identity and lived experience.

Komal specializes in trauma recovery, borderline personality disorder, and bipolar disorders alongside anxiety, depression, and mood instability. She understands the unique pressures facing first-generation immigrants and minority communities—balancing cultural expectations with personal needs, navigating systemic challenges, and reconciling different worlds without needing to explain these realities to her. Sessions are conducted in both English and Punjabi, allowing deeper emotional expression for those who carry certain truths in one language or the other.

She draws on evidence-based modalities including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Family Systems Theory, and narrative techniques. This blend helps clients re-author their stories, develop practical coping tools, and move toward constructive change. In sessions, clients find a supportive environment where their narratives are respected and their strengths are highlighted. Together, they identify unhelpful thought-behavior patterns, build concrete coping skills, heal trauma narratives, and strengthen family dynamics through a systemic lens.

Komal believes therapy should meet people where they are—culturally, linguistically, and emotionally—while maintaining high clinical standards. If you’re ready to begin healing and reclaiming stability, she welcomes you to explore whether her approach aligns with your journey. Bilingual services ensure no language barrier prevents access to meaningful, lasting care.

Kendra Wagner

Mental Health Therapist

Walking into therapy shouldn’t require code-switching or translating your reality before it earns legitimacy. For many African American, minority, and religiously observant clients, that’s exactly what therapy has felt like—a room where you carry the double burden of your pain plus the labor of making someone understand it. Kendra’s practice rejects that dynamic entirely. Her work is anchored in cultural humility and a decolonized framework, ensuring clients never tip-toe around spirituality, systemic oppression, intergenerational trauma, or identity.

Kendra specializes in couples, adults, and teens navigating mood disorders, bipolar disorder, borderline personality disorder, suicidal ideation, domestic violence, divorce, and grief. Safety, pacing, and trust come first—always. Her approach is solution-focused but measured, recognizing that some things took years to build and won’t be dismantled in a few sessions. Trauma and entrenched patterns have layers, and rushing harms. But this isn’t a space where she simply validates while clients talk in circles. Sessions involve homework, active skill-building, and direct challenges to behaviors keeping them stuck. Between-session tasks aren’t optional; they’re how insights become real change.

Kendra believes therapy that honors cultural and spiritual identity without sanitizing it is essential for genuine healing. She meets clients where they are without lowering the bar for progress. For those seeking a therapist who brings professionalism, cultural fluency, and accountability to the therapeutic relationship, she welcomes the conversation.

Kendra’s philosophy balances compassion with action—honoring where clients have been while maintaining focus on where they’re going. Sessions are collaborative yet purposeful, addressing patterns that perpetuate suffering while celebrating resilience and strength. Her clients leave each session not just feeling heard, but equipped with practical tools for lasting transformation. If you’re ready for therapy that understands your world without requiring explanation, Kendra invites you to reach out. Let’s figure out what comes next.

Genevieve Smith

Mental Health Therapist

Genevieve provides therapy for adolescents, adults, couples, and families experiencing anxiety, trauma, ADHD, relationship difficulties, postpartum mental health concerns, and life transitions. She is committed to creating a therapeutic environment that is compassionate, collaborative, and goal-oriented, helping clients develop the insight and practical skills necessary for meaningful, lasting change.

Genevieve has experience treating a broad range of mental health concerns, including trauma and PTSD, anxiety disorders, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, borderline personality disorder, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), grief, family conflict, parenting challenges, women’s mental health, pregnancy and postpartum adjustment, and marital and premarital concerns. She also works with couples to improve communication, strengthen emotional connection, and develop healthier relationship patterns.

Her clinical approach is integrative and individualized, recognizing that effective treatment should be tailored to each client’s unique needs and goals. Genevieve incorporates evidence-based modalities including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Internal Family Systems (IFS), Family Systems Therapy, Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT), Attachment-Based Therapy, Somatic interventions, and trauma-informed approaches. She emphasizes practical skill development, increased self-awareness, and sustainable strategies that empower clients to make progress beyond the therapy session.

Genevieve believes that therapy is most effective when it balances empathy with purposeful clinical guidance. While providing a supportive and nonjudgmental space, she also helps clients identify unhelpful patterns, develop healthier coping strategies, and work toward clearly defined treatment goals. Her focus is on equipping clients with lifelong tools that foster resilience, emotional well-being, and healthier relationships.

For clients who wish to incorporate their faith into treatment, Genevieve is able to thoughtfully integrate spirituality into therapy while maintaining an inclusive, respectful, and evidence-based approach to care.

Iffat Smith

Iffat Smith

Mental Health Therapist

Iffat is direct about her therapeutic approach because she believes clients deserve transparency from the start. She challenges her clients, asks hard questions, points out patterns others might tiptoe around, and expects them to show up ready to do real work. If someone is looking for a therapist who simply nods and validates, Iffat is not the right fit. But if they’re tired of surface-level conversations and ready to confront what’s actually keeping them stuck, we might be exactly what they need.

Iffat works with couples, adults, and teens navigating mood disorders, anxiety, depression, and relationship issues. She also specializes in supporting first-generation immigrants managing the complex realities of bicultural identity—family obligations colliding with personal freedom, guilt that doesn’t have a name, and the exhaustion of translating oneself between worlds. As someone who works extensively with communities of color and people from minority backgrounds, her priority is simple: clients should never feel like they have to educate her on their cultural or religious identity before receiving help. That’s her job, not theirs.

Her primary specialization is EMDR—a powerful, evidence-based approach to processing trauma, anxiety, and experiences that keep the nervous system stuck in survival mode. EMDR doesn’t require retelling every detail of what happened. It targets how those experiences are stored in the brain and body, helping clients reprocess them so they stop controlling their present. Iffat combines this with a straightforward therapeutic style that holds clients accountable to the changes they say they want to make. If that direct, engaged, no-nonsense approach is what someone is looking for, she encourages them to contact her.

Jean Marie Place

Mental Health Therapist

You already know something isn’t working. Maybe trauma from years ago still shows up in your body before your mind catches up. Maybe getting out of bed feels like a negotiation every morning. Jean Marie works with people who recognize they’re tired of just coping—those who’ve been in survival mode so long they’ve forgotten what living feels like. Her approach is solution-focused because clients deserve more than a weekly space to unpack pain without building a way through it.

Empathy forms the foundation, but it’s not the whole house. Jean Marie uses CBT to rewire thought loops pulling clients under, DBT for real skills when emotions hit hard, ACT to help them stop fighting their inner world and start acting on what matters, and narrative counselling to loosen the grip of stories they’ve been told about who they are.

She specializes in trauma and PTSD, depression, anxiety disorders, OCD, substance misuse, addiction, relationship issues, divorce, discernment counselling, grief, chronic pain, health-related anxiety, workplace burnout, perfectionism, and people-pleasing. These aren’t clinical terms—they’re daily experiences stealing time and energy. The tools used are practical and travel with clients outside sessions.

Therapy that stops at validation doesn’t create lasting change. Jean Marie believes clients deserve honesty about what’s keeping them stuck, plus structure and measurable progress. She moves at each client’s pace, but doesn’t stall. If someone is ready to stop surviving and start rebuilding, she encourages reaching out for a consultation.

Jean Marie’s philosophy centers on actionable growth. She brings professionalism, directness, and genuine investment in client outcomes. Sessions balance understanding with accountability—honoring where clients have been while maintaining focus on where they’re going. For those seeking therapy that offers both compassion and tangible direction, Jean Marie welcomes the conversation.
