In this episode, I try to ask all the questions we as first generation Afghan Americans, want to ask a therapist.  What's even better than asking a therapist? Asking a licensed clinical psychologist like my special guest, Dr. Nafisa Sekandari.  Dr. Nafisa Sekandari is a licensed clinical psychologist, award winning author, lecturer, and online trainer. She started "Mental Health for Muslims" in hopes of providing mental health information that are both clinically supported and Islamically sound.  Dr. Sekandari is on a mission to make mental health accessible to the masses…regardless of where they live in the world. 

Through her Mental Health Break podcast, Dr. Sekandari aims to encourage her audience to prioritize their mental health and create dialogue about mental health in general.  Through her "Transforming Anxiety" virtual courses she focuses on treating anxiety from a holistic, medication free perspective.  In her courses,  you will learn all the tools necessary to manage and overcome anxiety in easy to follow steps.

Dr. Sekandari’s comprehensive course “Culturally Competent Service Delivery with Muslims” has been helping thousands of non-Muslim mental health professionals gain a deeper understanding about the Muslim community while improving their cultural competency with the Muslim patient.

A HUGE thank you to Dr. Nafisa for honoring me with her presence and doing this interview.
