About Zainab
I'm Zainab Farrukh, a trauma-informed therapist and clinical psychologist. For more than seven years I've walked alongside women through trauma, CPTSD, anxiety, depression, grief, and the quiet weight of burnout.
My work is grounded in evidence-based therapy and shaped by a deep respect for faith, culture, and family. I hold space for Muslim women across North America, the Middle East, and Pakistan, in both English and Urdu.
You will not have to explain your world before we begin. That part is already understood.

Specializations
Focused areas of clinical work, all delivered online.
Evidence-based methods including DBT, CBT, and ACT, adapted with care to the pace your body and mind can hold.
Gentle, structured work with the imprint of past harm, so it stops running the show and starts to soften.
For the woman who has been carrying too much for too long. We rebuild capacity, boundaries, and rest.
A quiet, ten-question check-in that takes about two minutes. No sign-up. No judgment. Just a clearer picture of how you're really doing, and what might help next.

My approach to healing
You will always know where we are, and what comes next.
We begin gently. You set the pace. Nothing moves faster than feels safe.
Together we make sense of what happened, and what your nervous system learned to carry.
Practical, faith-respectful tools you can use between sessions and long after our work ends.
Reclaiming your voice, your boundaries, and a life that feels like yours again.
Culturally sensitive therapy
Faith-respectful, culturally aware, and never asking you to leave part of yourself at the door.
Faith, culture, and family are not footnotes in your story. They shape how you feel, decide, and heal, and they are welcome in the room.
You can speak plainly here. Nothing about your beliefs or background needs to be defended or translated.
We look at the family patterns you were raised in and the ones you want to carry forward. With clarity, not blame.
