About Rawandeep (Reema)

My practice is focused on helping individuals, couples, and families who are in need of compassion and support as they navigate through mental health concerns and life challenges. People can often feel trapped and powerless and seeking support can help them move forward in their healing journey with a positive mindset. I truly believe that each individual is the expert on their life and holds the potential to heal through their inner strength and wisdom to improve the quality of their life. With validation, compassion, and trust in the therapeutic relationship, I can help individuals heal from past trauma and support them in navigating through emotional complexities and life transitions, enhancing their quality of life and well-being.

My approach is integrative and holistic with a culturally responsive, developmentally sensitive neurobiology-informed lens influenced by an understanding of the impact of trauma on the brain and CBT as my main modality. This approach allows me to gain insight into a client�s unique developmental experiences, trauma responses, and belief system. I am also trained in EMDR for trauma processing.

I work with adults and youth with childhood trauma, PTSD, anxiety, depression, grief, and relational trauma, and women who are victims of gender-based violence. I provide counselling for self-esteem issues, concurrent disorders, grief and loss, and bicultural identity crises, family problems, acculturative stress, addictions, and life transitions. I also work closely with individuals, couples, and families as well as immigrants and refugees. I am fluent in Punjabi, Urdu, and Hindi, which allows me to help individuals in need of language support.
