Hanin identifies as a Palestinian, cisgender woman. She is currently able-bodied and has a slim body size. She has lived in Minnesota since 2011 and grew up in both Iowa and Palestine. She was born into a Christian family and, while not currently practicing, continues to explore and grow in her spirituality. Hanin is divorced and parenting two teenagers. She also has two adult stepchildren. Her passion for this work is deeply rooted in her lived experiences as a Palestinian child of immigrant parents.

Hanin’s work focuses on helping people feel more resourced, expanding their network of support, and reclaiming mental health as a collective, community-centered experience, especially within those communities that are historically and systemically excluded. She is informed by social justice and anti-oppression frameworks and is grounded in offering support, compassion, and empowerment.

Language & Cultural Background
I have familiarity with colloquial Levantine Arabic and a strong understanding of spoken Arabic. While I do not provide therapy in Arabic, I can incorporate Arabic words, phrases, and cultural context into our work together when meaningful to the client. I appreciate the importance of language, culture, and identity in the therapeutic process. More about Hanin
The name Hanin comes from the Arabic word ‘hanoon’ and means compassion, kindness, warm-heartedness, and love, which she strives to embody everyday. When not at work, Hanin loves to prioritize time to connect with her family and friends, to learn Tatreez (traditional Palestinian embroidery) and Doumbek (traditional Arabic percussion), to read fantasy books, and to care for her house plants. |
