Idman Abtio

Idman is deeply passionate and committed to providing a safe space for individuals from a culturally competent lens. She has a particular interest in working with teens and young adults in spaces of trauma recovery, seeking out evidence-based practices, such as CBT, trauma-informed, and culturally sensitive approaches.

Raised by parents from East Africa, Idman has developed a unique and cultural competence which has allowed her to grasp the nuances of her clients’ circumstances and experiences. Idman believes in creating a trusting relationship with her clients, to make them feel supported and safe. She likes to view each session as an opportunity to be a light on her clients’ paths, to find comfort despite the present and onward to a hopeful road in the future.
