Hope and Shine is a mental health therapy practice, founded by Amal Afzal, LCSW-C. This practice was created from a simple belief that healing happens when you feel truly seen, understood, and supported. Its mission is to empower deep-feeling and deep-thinking, self-reflective, and growth-oriented teens and adults to understand themselves on a deeper level, heal from past experiences, and build authentic, secure connections with themselves and others. It aims to create a supportive environment for these tender, empathic souls who carry the weight of anxiety, depression, difficult childhoods, and overwhelming emotions to see that transformation begins with small moments of clarity and courage.

Hope and Shine is the therapeutic journey from igniting a spark of hope to you shining at your full potential.
