Hi, I’m Fatima Khan-Ali, a south Florida native with ties to the Caribbean, and I absolutely love what I do! Since graduating in 2011, I have had the pleasure of helping so many achieve their goals.

I have helped teens and adults work through and overcome symptoms of depression, anxiety and life’s tougher transitions.

What can I expect in my first few sessions with?

In our first few sessions together I will work on building a trusting relationship with you. I will ask specific questions to help me to get to know you, your personal history, and to truly understand what is bringing you in to therapy at this point in your life. You can dive in as much or as little as you are comfortable with, there is no pressure and I will meet you where you are at. During these first session you will get to know me as a therapist, my style and my approach. You are welcome to ask any questions that help you to feel comfortable with me as well.

What makes you different from other therapists?

What sets me apart as a therapist is the combination of clinical expertise, cultural awareness, and a deeply human approach to healing. As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, I don't just focus on the individual — I look at the systems, relationships, histories, and cultural influences that shape who you are and how you experience the world. bring a balance of warmth, directness, and attunement — creating a space where you feel heard rather than judged. I use a number of tools to help in our journey together, such as techniques from Gottman Method Couples Therapy, CBT, DBT, Solution focused and Narrative Therapies to help you to live the life you want to live.

What inspired you to become a therapist?

What led me to become a therapist was witnessing, time and again, how much my community was hurting — not just from life’s challenges, but from being met with judgment and shame instead of empathy and compassion. I saw how many people were carrying pain in silence because they didn’t feel safe to speak, to feel, or to be fully seen

I became a therapist because I believe healing begins in spaces where people feel understood, not fixed — where their stories are held with care, not critique. I wanted to offer something different: a place where people, especially those from marginalized or misunderstood backgrounds, could experience connection without having to explain or defend who they are.

At the core of my work is the belief that everyone deserves a space to be human — messy, complex, and still deeply worthy of care.
