I'm Nurah Hussain, a psychotherapist with a passion for helping individuals, couples, and families navigate life’s complexities and heal through meaningful, lasting change. I hold a Master’s degree in Counseling Psychology from Northwestern University and a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology and Biology from Florida Atlantic University. My academic and clinical training has equipped me with the tools to offer both depth and flexibility in my work, allowing me to meet patients exactly where they are.

I work with patients from all walks of life and have a strong commitment to providing culturally competent, affirming care. I believe in the importance of acknowledging and integrating each patient's unique cultural background, identity, and lived experiences into the therapeutic process. My practice is inclusive, welcoming individuals from diverse racial, ethnic, gender, and spiritual backgrounds, including LGBTQIA+ and BIPOC communities.

My approach to therapy is integrative and holistic. I combine evidence-based practices such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), psychodynamic therapy, and interpersonal therapy with mindfulness-based and strength-focused techniques. I tailor each session to meet the specific needs and goals of my patients, fostering a supportive space where insight, growth, and healing can unfold. I specialize in working with issues related to:

• Trauma and complex trauma (including childhood and intergenerational trauma)
• Grief and loss
• Identity development and life transitions
• Relationship and communication challenges
• Anxiety and stress
• Depression and emotional regulation
• Attachment wounds and family dynamics
• Communication

In my work with individuals, I aim to help you uncover the patterns that may be holding you back and empower you with tools to move forward. With couples, I support partners in rebuilding trust, enhancing communication, and deepening emotional intimacy. I also work with families, guiding them through conflict, life transitions, and generational issues, with the goal of fostering connection, understanding, and healthy dynamics.

Therapy is not one-size-fits-all, and I see each patient as the expert of their own life. My role is to walk alongside you with empathy, curiosity, and respect—offering clinical insight, reflective exploration, and practical strategies that support your emotional and psychological well-being.

If you're ready to begin your healing journey or simply need someone to talk to, I’d be honored to be a part of your process.
