Fajir Alattar, LMSW

Growing up in the Middle East, I gained invaluable insights into the importance of embracing diversity and adapting to new cultures. When I later moved to the United States, I became acutely aware of the profound impact cultural dynamics have on mental health, igniting my passion to create an inclusive environment in therapy, particularly for minorities and people of color.

As a therapist, I am dedicated to supporting individuals from diverse socioeconomic, religious, and ethnic backgrounds. I have extensive experience treating depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, personality disorders, and adjustment disorders. Using an integrative approach that includes Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Motivational Interviewing, and Solution-Focused methods I help clients navigate the challenges in their lives. Central to my practice is a spirit of collaboration, where the therapeutic relationship is built on mutual respect and trust.

I firmly believe in empowering my clients to take an active role in their healing journey. Together, we explore practical strategies and exercises that can be implemented beyond our sessions, fostering resilience and emotional regulation. Witnessing the positive transformations my clients undergo, from heightened confidence to profound insights into their behaviors, is immensely gratifying.

Outside my work, I find joy in spending quality time with my loved ones and my adorable cat. I’m a big fan of board games, video games, and exploring diverse cuisines, particularly those with a spicy kick.
