Welcome! I'm Farah Alnajar, a Licensed Professional Counselor and Certified Clinical Trauma Professional with a deep commitment to multicultural counseling and trauma-informed care. I specialize in helping individuals heal from intergenerational trauma, complex family dynamics, self-esteem issues, body image concerns, and eating disorders. Using a blend of Internal Family Systems (IFS) and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), I guide my clients in rewriting their life stories and breaking trauma cycles.

As an immigrant and bilingual therapist (Arabic and English), I bring a unique perspective to my work, helping clients navigate the intersections of culture, language, and personal identity. In addition to my private practice in Fairfax, VA, I work as an international trauma consultant for non-profit organizations, assisting global communities in recovering from collective trauma.

I have served as the Multicultural Chair for the Northern Virginia Licensed Professional Counselors Association (NVLPC), where I promoted diversity and inclusion within the counseling community. I am passionate about training fellow therapists to develop multicultural competency and provide culturally responsive care.

On a personal level, I love spending time with my family, especially my son and daughter. I also enjoy running, yoga, reading, and weight training as part of my self-care routine.
