Zainah Ben Essa

LMHC

I am based in Kuwait City, but have active licenses in New York City and Florida. I have virtual clients from all over the world, and help clients align themselves with the best lives they hope to have for themselves. I approach individuals from a client-centered, multicultural, trauma informed lens, and help clients understand and identify unconscious patterns to make them more conscious. I have been practicing for 6 years now, and have experience with a wide range of clients. I understand what it means to be Arab, Muslim, and an immigrant to the US, where I was living for 10 years.
