Ali’s approach is interpersonal, trauma-informed, and eclectic. She integrates modalities such as attachment theory, psychodynamic theory, schema therapy, EFT, Polyvagal, ACT, Adlerian therapy, IFS, and REBT to meet each client’s unique needs. At the heart of her work is the belief that therapy is about presence—creating a safe, authentic space grounded in connection and unconditional regard.
