Yusra Aziz, MSW, LCSW, is a dedicated clinical social worker and therapist who specializes in helping individuals navigate through experiences of trauma, anxiety, and self-esteem challenges. For many clients, the fear of feeling helpless in the face of persistent stress and trauma becomes overwhelming, often leading to feelings of loneliness and disconnection.

She is committed to fostering an environment where clients can find acceptance and security within themselves, guiding them towards a path of meaningful healing and growth. In her therapy practice, Yusra prioritizes building strong, collaborative relationships with her clients. She values the influence of cultural backgrounds on thoughts and behaviors, ensuring that therapy is culturally sensitive and tailored to each individual's unique experiences. By employing a variety of therapeutic approaches—including Compassion Focused Therapy, Trauma-Focused Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy—Yusra works with clients to uncover underlying patterns that may contribute to their distress. Together, they develop effective strategies for creating and sustaining healthier habits. Yusra also has a particular commitment to supporting the Arab-American community, offering her services in a compassionate and understanding manner. Her goal is to assess and address the therapeutic needs of her clients while providing a welcoming and supportive environment.
