Omeesha is a master’s student at the University of Denver, where she is studying psychology with a focus on trauma and global mental health. She is a therapist who walks alongside individuals navigating trauma, identity, and life's pivotal transitions. With a warm, grounded presence and gentle curiosity, she creates spaces where clients feel both safe enough to explore painful histories and bold enough to imagine new futures.

Her practice centers on a deeply personal philosophy: she uses her own experiences as a window into her clients' narratives, never as a door to walk through and overshadow their unique stories. This approach allows her to offer genuine understanding while honoring each person's journey.

Working with folk of all ages and walks of life, she specializes in helping people reclaim agency and meaning in their lives. Her work is grounded in collaboration and co-creation, recognizing that the therapeutic relationship itself becomes a cornerstone of healing. Whether supporting trauma survivors or anyone grappling with life's complexities, she brings cultural humility, trauma-informed, and queer-affirming care to every session.

Her clinical experience spans attachment and developmental trauma, the complexities of parenting, intersecting marginalized identities, neurodiversity, cultural assimilation, interpersonal issues, and life transitions. She holds special interests in grief and loss, spirituality, existential questions, chronic health conditions, and women’s and queer mental health. Drawing from an eclectic toolkit of psychological praxis, like psychodynamic, person-centered, existential, Internal Family Systems, and somatic approaches, alongside CBT and TF-CBT, she trusts that healing lives in the body as much as the mind.

Above all, she believes that you are the expert of your own life story. Her role is to offer a steady, compassionate presence to clients as they untangle what no longer serves them and nurture what helps them flourish. Her priority is to honor the tender places that need healing and the resilient spirit that brings clients here. Her most salient belief is that there is no rush to “fix” anything, only space to breathe, explore, and gently tend to whatever emerges.
