Fathi Kofiro, MSW, LICSW
Brain spotting & EMDR Therapist
Fathi is dedicated to helping adults ages 18 and older heal from trauma, with a special focus on emotional trauma, in a safe, grounded, and deeply respectful environment. She works closely with individuals facing challenges such as a harsh inner critic, chronic self-doubt, anxiety, and wounds rooted in early relationships.
​
As a first-generation Somali Muslim woman, Fathi brings lived experience and cultural sensitivity into her work. She understands what it means to navigate complex identities, intergenerational pain, and oppressive systems. Her approach is nonjudgmental, empowering, and attuned to each client’s unique story.
​
Her clinical foundation is rooted in trauma-informed therapy, with advanced training in EMDR and Brainspotting—evidence-based modalities that go beyond talk therapy to help release trauma stored in the nervous system and foster lasting emotional resilience. These methods support lasting emotional regulation and resilience.
