Ramsha Momin, LCSW
Does this sound like you?
Your emotions feel like they could take up an entire ocean, a burden that feels too heavy to carry. On paper you are compassionate and high achieving, but underneath you feel self-critical, anxious, lonely, or broken.
It is hard to trust people and show up as your true self, and your relationships feel overwhelming. Like you’ll make a mistake and lose it all or get too close for people to see the real you. Anxiety prevails in your day to day life, telling you that you have to do things perfectly or else people will find out that you don’t actually have it all together.
Self-doubt has been embedded in you through past experiences, maybe even trauma or neglect in your family growing up – it makes you believe that you are somehow defective beyond repair. You have done so much throughout the years to keep yourself protected from pain, however, you always have wanted more for yourself.
You feel drawn to the version of you that is happy and satisfied, has healthy relationships, and a solid sense of who they are and what they want. Wherever you are, I’m here to help you get closer to your goals.
My name is Ramsha and I am a South Asian therapist based in Dallas, TX serving clients online all throughout Texas. In therapy, I’ll help you gain insight into how your past has impacted you and how we can move forward with intention. We’ll gain clarity around your values and what truly matters to you so we can take steps that are rooted in your authenticity and empowerment.
In addition to my training, my work is also informed by my lived experiences of being a first-generation Indian-American and Muslim. My background has provided me with the ability to connect with others through deep empathy, introspection, and understanding. Through my experiences, both personal and professional, I have found I connect most with women and young adults/adolescents. I work with individuals experiencing trauma, depression, anxiety, self-esteem, life transitions, and career exploration. I utilize a person-centered and an eclectic therapeutic approach while incorporating psychoeducation, mindfulness, cognitive behavioral, strengths-based, and psychodynamic techniques. My clinical interests include meeting each unique individual with cultural humility, empathy, and patience to help them reach their goals and live a more fulfilling life.
My clients are typically motivated, ready to dig deep, and are active participants in their therapy. This means being able to receive questions and insights that take them deeper into their experiences and sense of self. I am a very curious and active participant but do not approach therapy as if I am an expert in you, you are the expert in yourself. We are working together to figure out what has been hidden to make it aware so that you can make the changes you want in your life. Therapy with me is rooted in compassion, creative insight, and goal oriented skills.
This journey is unique for everyone and if you’re interested in starting this experience, you are welcome to contact me for an initial consultation. I’m proud of you for taking your first step!
