Ranya Al-Jamal, LMSW

Life circumstances constantly shift, and with that comes added life stressors. Finding a therapist that you connect with to address your life stressors, trauma, and mental health struggles is crucial. I aim to assist individuals in carrying out changes that promote life fulfillment. I offer a unique perspective I acquired through experiences in providing trauma therapy to survivors of domestic violence and sexual abuse with a focus on mindfulness. Traumatic experiences from any phase in life can keep one feeling emotionally numb. I aim to heal wounds left by childhood trauma, toxic relationships, and self sabotaging patterns. Experiencing trauma can disrupt ones ability to establish healthy relationships. I strive to assist individuals in developing a better understanding of themselves, improve overall quality of life, and to establish and deepen their relationships. I specialize in women’s mental health, with clinical expertise in anxiety, depression, trauma, and a wide range of women’s issues. My areas of focus include domestic violence, postpartum depression, body image concerns, motherhood, miscarriage, pregnancy loss, IVF and infertility. I also assist individuals struggling with day to day societal and cultural pressures including finding a balance between school, work, and family. I strive to create a safe and welcoming environment to assist individuals in carrying out changes that promote life fulfillment. I focus on mindfulness techniques to assist clients in learning how to regulate their anxiety, stress, and trauma through relaxation techniques. I aim to help clients process their feelings in a safe, healthy, and meaningful way. In a post pandemic world, people want to feel heard and understood. Therapeutic interventions are not a one size fits all. I first focus on establishing a therapeutic relationship with each client in order to create an effective collaborative therapeutic plan, which will assist them in achieving their goals.
