Hello, I’m Soha. I’m the daughter of Pakistani Muslim immigrants and a therapist deeply invested in the healing and liberation of BIPOC communities and individuals with multiple intersecting marginalized identities. I was drawn to this work because, as a third culture kid, I struggled to find a therapist who could truly understand all of me. Now, I strive to offer the kind of culturally responsive, trauma-informed, and affirming care I once needed.

I provide therapy for individuals, couples, and families—throughout California via telehealth and in-person in Oakland and the East Bay. I specialize in working with people whose lives are shaped by multiple identities, systemic injustice, and complex life experiences. I am particularly well suited to serve BIPOC folks, those in the Asian diaspora, Queer and Trans folks, Muslims, activists, children of any age of immigrants/third culture kids, immigrants, and multicultural individuals, couples, and families.

My practice is a welcoming space for all parts of you. Whether you’re seeking therapy to explore your identity, heal from trauma, manage stress or anxiety, or process life transitions and experiences of injustice, I am here to support individuals of all ages, couples, and families—especially those navigating complex cultural, relational, and systemic dynamics.

Working with me is an invitation to come as you are and be met with warmth, compassion, non-judgment, and radical acceptance. Together, we’ll build a therapeutic relationship that supports you in reclaiming your story, reconnecting to your power, and imagining new possibilities for healing and growth.

This is a soft place to land. It is a place to be embraced as you are and gently encouraged to grow in the ways you want. A place where the toughest parts of ourselves are invited to sit down and be poured a warm cup of tea. I look forward to the opportunity of working with you.

My work is supervised by Dr. Juliana Ybarra, PsyD (PSY28799).
