Trauma-informed and neurodivergent-affirming therapy for anxiety, trauma and questions of identity, culture & belonging
Trauma-informed and neurodivergent-affirming therapy for anxiety, trauma and questions of identity, culture & belonging
My name is Reema (she/her) and I'm a neurodivergent and LGBTQI+ affirming psychotherapist working with adults navigating ADHD, autism, anxiety, trauma, and questions of identity, culture and belonging.
For some of us, spending years trying to fit in by meeting societal or cultural expectations, or making sense of experiences that others don't seem to struggle with, can be exhausting and isolating. Therapy can offer a space where you feel understood and accepted, without judgement or the pressure to be someone you're not.
Constant masking, navigating family and/or cultural expectations, or moving between different parts of your identity can sometimes make it difficult to know what you really want or need, or where you feel you belong. In therapy, we can gently explore these experiences together, making space for the parts of yourself that may not always feel understood or accepted elsewhere.
My aim is to offer a space where you can approach your experiences with curiosity and compassion, make sense of your past, and develop a kinder relationship with yourself. Together, we can explore ways forward that feel more in tune with who you are and what matters to you.
I prefer an empathetic, open and collaborative approach to my work. I integrate a variety of therapeutic modalities such as Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapy, EMDR, talk therapy, sensorimotor psychotherapy, and somatic work. I've worked as a play therapist for children and draw on my experience with kids with inner child healing work for adults through play, drama, art, and somatic work if this is accessible to you.
