Sabrina Ishrat LPC

• Georgia, Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC013309

Not unlike many within this field, my own experiences with mental health influenced my decision to become a therapist. Through my own struggles in my young life, I found a passion for hearing other people’s experiences and empowering others to identify and utilize their strengths in moments of hardship. A couple of areas I specialize in, but are not limited to, navigating are ideas of perfectionism, developing self-compassion, exploring one’s cultural identity, coping with and understanding feeling “not good enough", overcoming the stress of living up to expectations (cultural, intrapersonal, societal, parental), setting boundaries, overcoming generational and childhood trauma, feeling torn between two or more cultures, and feelings of shame, worry, or guilt. I believe safety and non-judgment are among the most important aspects of the therapeutic relationship. I am committed to supporting you as we explore your thoughts and feelings, looking closely at barriers that until now have limited your insights and clarity. I endeavor to bring warmth, awareness, and connection to my sessions. I co-create a unique healing experience with clients, often using humor and creativity to encourage mindfulness, self-compassion, and change. I believe firmly that healing is non-linear, and absolutely that it is possible.
