About Rima

Rima Soueidan, LMSW, is licensed in Michigan and has 23 years of clinical experience. She works with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship issues, addiction, trauma and related concerns. Her stated methods include Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness, Narrative, and Solution-Focused approaches.

Soueidan focuses on helping people manage symptoms like social anxiety, isolation, grief, and symptoms of bipolar disorder. She also addresses interpersonal patterns such as codependency, abandonment issues, control struggles, infidelity, and challenges in non-monogamous relationships. She lists addiction, impulsivity, and personality concerns among her practice areas.

Her style emphasizes listening and practical steps. Sessions include talking through thoughts and behaviors, identifying patterns that cause distress, and using small, concrete exercises to change them. Mindfulness practices and narrative work are used to help people notice unhelpful stories about themselves and try different responses.

Soueidan also reports work with trauma-related concerns and post-traumatic stress. She uses trauma-focused and solution-focused tools to help people stabilize, build coping skills, and set attainable goals. Therapy can include skill-building for emotion regulation and problem solving.

She offers services in English and Arabic and notes experience across cultural contexts. Payment varies by location and sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time. To begin, prospective clients complete a brief matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.

How her approaches translate to online sessions

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and supporting the client's own goals. The therapist uses reflective listening, questions, and collaborative planning to help clients clarify what matters and set the agenda for work together. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. Online sessions can include identifying unhelpful thought patterns, trying small behavioral experiments between sessions, and reviewing results in the next meeting. Mindfulness Therapy teaches attention skills and simple practices to reduce reactivity. These techniques can be practiced during or between sessions to help with anxiety, stress, and emotion regulation. Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work with each person to decide which methods fit their goals, needs, and preferences. That choice is collaborative and can change over time. Confirm the specific session formats before booking because they are not listed here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also support continuing work when life events make in-person visits difficult.
