Aziza Ghanem Bazzi, LLMSW, SSW

Limited Licensed Social Worker

Plymouth & Virtual

Hi, I’m Aziza — a social worker, mother, big sister, mental health professional, and child advocate. I support clients through the challenges of everyday life, including life transitions, relationships, identity development, and personal growth. I believe everyone deserves a good life, and that “good life” looks different for each person. Together, we’ll explore what truly matters to you and how your values guide the life you want to build.

My therapeutic approach is flexible and client-centered, meeting you exactly where you are. I believe that each time you walk through the door, you may be arriving as a different version of yourself — and therapy should honor that. As a Palestinian Muslim American, I intentionally practice through an inclusive and culturally responsive lens. I recognize how our identities, histories, and lived experiences shape who we are and how we heal. This work is often described as a decolonized therapeutic approach, meaning we acknowledge the impact of systems, power, and perspective on our mental health and recovery. A one-size-fits-all model simply doesn’t work.

I am also a certified school social worker with years of experience supporting students and families in educational settings. Navigating the special education and certification process can feel overwhelming and intimidating. As both an evaluator and service provider, I am well-versed in these systems and committed to guiding families with clarity, compassion, and advocacy as they move into this next chapter.

Get to know Aziza

  • I love that my profession centers on human connection. Being invited into someone’s life and trusted with their story is a gift. Through these relationships, I am constantly learning — about resilience, growth, and myself.

  • My sessions feel comfortable, clear, and client-driven. It’s important to me that clients feel at ease, because that’s when meaningful work can begin. I use accessible language and practical concepts, with sessions focused on your goals and guided by your values. While our work has structure and intention, it remains flexible and responsive to what you need in the moment. I aim for the space to feel supportive and familiar — more like working alongside a trusted guide than speaking with a stranger.

  • Advocating for marginalized communities and empowering the youth.
