Yasmine

Yasmine is a Somatic Therapist and Sexologist, holding accreditations from esteemed institutions such as Somatic Experiencing International and the United States Body Psychotherapy Association. She brings a wealth of expertise to her practice, having earned certifications from the Somatica® Institute of Sex and Relationship Coaching in the United States, as well as the Institute of Somatic Sexology in Australia.

Her practice is dedicated to facilitating healing journeys from trauma, fostering profound body awareness, and nurturing intimacy. Specializing in various forms of trauma, Yasmine’s approach to sexology is particularly focused on addressing shame, trauma, and empowering women, especially those from conservative cultures, to embrace their sexual identities. She assists them in reconnecting with their desires and understanding their unique sexual styles. Her extended specializations are working with women who have experienced sexual trauma and vaginismus.

Yasmine extends her support to Arabic and Middle-Eastern women through her inclusive programs and workshops. She curates a nurturing environment within the community named “ننمو بخفة“ (growing lightly in Arabic), where she orchestrates a range of monthly and weekly events designed to foster healing and personal growth.

Complementing her dedication to her clients, Yasmine is also an integral part of the Restore Multi-disciplinary Clinic for Female Genital Mutilation, a pioneering effort in the Middle East for treating FGM survivors. Furthermore, she holds the distinction of being one of the first therapists specializing in supporting Autistic Adults in the MENA region, with a certification as an Adaptive Therapist for Autistic Adults, including Level 1 autism expertise.
