I founded Rinaya because I saw, first-hand, how fragile families can be when the relationship between two parents falls apart. Growing up around divorce, I witnessed how children often carry the deepest wounds, and traumas that shape the rest of their lives. Most people spend decades trying to heal what went wrong in their childhood, and I kept asking myself: how do we prevent these patterns before they start?
At first, I believed the answer was to protect the children directly. That's why I worked for a year at Sesobel with children as a psychologist, helping kids through their struggles. But what I quickly realized is that the children were rarely the real problem. The bigger issue was parents, acting impulsively, projecting their unhappiness, or repeating patterns they hadn't healed from themselves.
So the real question became: how can we help parents treat their children better? And the answer is surprisingly simple, when couples are happy, they naturally create loving and supportive environments for their kids. Studies even confirm this. That realization changed everything for me.
Though, I also saw another layer of the problem: many people were entering marriages they should never have stepped into in the first place. They struggled to find partners who truly fit their values, personality, and lifestyle. They settled for what they had. So, when the dissatisfaction grew, they tried to "fix" the marriage by having children, only to pass the same pain and dysfunction on to the next generation.
That's when I understood that my mission was bigger than just helping parents. It was about helping people choose the right partners, build healthy relationships, and break free from the cycles that keep love from thriving.
I've lived this myself, through satisfied and unsatisfied relationships, and I understand deeply how much a healthy partnership shapes your life. That's why, after 7 years of studying psychology, earning both a Bachelor's and Master's in Clinical Psychology, and completing a Coaching Certification, I created Rinaya.
Rinaya is built on a unique approach that blends psychology and coaching. It's not just therapy, not just coaching, and not just counseling, but a framework that combines the best of all three.
Our programs are designed for the challenges people in the Middle East face most:
For me, this is more than a profession, it's a responsibility. Because every healthy relationship we help build today creates healthier families tomorrow. And that means healthier children, healthier communities, and ultimately, a better world.
I don't want you to struggle with your relationship, I want you to strive and grow with your relationship.
That's why I founded Rinaya. One relationship at a time, we're building a stronger future.
