Here’s my take on this fun trend. 😉

It took me many years of grad school and trying many different therapists to recognize how important my cultural identity as a Persian-Armenian woman who immigrated to the US as a young girl was to my mental health.

I feel honored to get to be the kind of therapist I needed back then.

Reminder that you CAN have a therapist that makes you feel seen and understood, and like you don’t need to hide parts of yourself to make it more palatable for them to help you.

This is the very reason why I created Roots & Fruits (my group program) devoted to helping the daughters of immigrants understand themselves, break generational patterns, and create the kinds of relationships and lives they want.
