Hi there! It's so nice to meet you.

I have been a therapist for 6 years and whether this is your first time trying therapy or not, it can feel difficult. Acknowledging you need help is one thing and seeking help is another so I'm glad you're here!

Over years, I have had the opportunity to work in several settings, including juvenile justice, family reunification, community case management, adult inpatient mental health, & transitional care. Because of this I come with different insight into the issues that may be affecting you. Therapeutic support can improve your mental health for the better. I am letting you know you are not alone in the need for support. Let me help you identify, clarify & meet your goals for better quality of life

I’m Rasha, a licensed therapist with over eight years of experience in mental health, public health, and program leadership. My background includes working with adolescents, adults, and families across school-based, community, and clinical settings. I specialize in supporting individuals navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, ADHD, life transitions, and concerns related to racial and ethnic identity.

My work is grounded in both clinical expertise and real-world understanding of how systemic stressors, culture, and environment impact mental health. I have extensive experience helping clients who appear high-functioning externally but feel overwhelmed, emotionally taxed, or disconnected internally.

Clients should know that I am direct, thoughtful, and deeply invested in meaningful growth. I will support you — but I will also challenge you when necessary. Therapy with me is not passive; it is intentional, reflective, and focused on helping you build sustainable change.

Know that I'm trained in EMDR and trauma-focused CBT, and that I got here by way of ministry work with survivors of trafficking before becoming a counselor — so I don't flinch at hard stories. Bring me your anxiety, your ADHD-scattered days, your trauma, or the relationship patterns you keep repeating. Expect direct feedback, not just nodding along, and expect me to treat you as capable of change from the first session.

Great to meet you!
