Getting to know Dr. Noora Abdulkerim

**Not licensed to prescribe medication** Dr. Noora Abdulkerim is a licensed psychologist who works with adolescents and adults navigating anxiety, depression, identity-related stress, family dynamics, and life transitions. She has particular expertise in supporting individuals from diverse cultural, religious, and racial backgrounds who may be balancing multiple identities or navigating intergenerational expectations. In addition to her clinical work, Dr. Abdulkerim has conducted research on culturally adapting mental health interventions and examining how racial and cultural experiences shape emotional well-being. This informs her work in a practical way — helping clients understand how personal history, family systems, and broader social contexts intersect with mental health. She also works with children and families, supporting emotional regulation, behavioral concerns, and developmental transitions. Her style is thoughtful, collaborative, and grounded in evidence-based treatment, while remaining deeply attentive to each client’s lived experience.

What should a new client know about working with you?

You can expect our work together to feel both supportive and purposeful. I value creating a space where you feel safe discussing the full complexity of your experiences — including cultural, family, or identity factors that may not always feel easy to name. At the same time, therapy with me is structured. I help clients identify patterns in thinking, behavior, and relationships that may be contributing to distress, and we work together to develop practical strategies for change. My goal is not only to reduce symptoms, but to help you feel more confident navigating challenges independently over time.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

In the initial sessions, I focus on understanding your concerns, background, strengths, and goals. We explore how personal experiences, family dynamics, and cultural influences may be shaping your current challenges. From there, we develop a collaborative treatment plan that may include: Identifying and shifting unhelpful thought patterns (CBT) Strengthening emotional regulation skills (DBT-informed strategies) Clarifying values and increasing psychological flexibility (ACT) Exploring identity and relational dynamics I typically recommend beginning with weekly sessions to establish consistency and build momentum. Throughout treatment, we periodically reassess goals and adjust our approach to ensure therapy remains aligned with your needs.
