“I had done therapy before, but this was different. It wasn’t just about managing symptoms — it was about reconnecting with myself in a deeper, more grounded way. Nadia’s approach is thoughtful, intuitive, and truly collaborative.”

Land and Labor Acknowledgment


At Psychology Bay Area, we acknowledge that our work takes place on the unceded ancestral lands of many Indigenous peoples, including the Coast Miwok, Ramaytush Ohlone, Chochenyo Ohlone, Bay Miwok, and Patwin peoples—original stewards of what is now known as the San Francisco Bay Area.

We also honor the lives and labor of enslaved Africans, whose forced exploitation played a central role in building the wealth of this nation.

We recognize the enduring impacts of colonization, slavery, systemic violence, and stand firmly against all forms of genocide—past and present.

At Psychology Bay Area, our commitment is to collective healing, cultural humility, and restorative action. May our work contribute to a more just, inclusive, and compassionate world for all beings.
