About Rima

Rima Soueidan is a licensed social worker (LMSW) in Michigan with 23 years of clinical experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, ADHD, and relationship difficulties.

Background and approach

She draws on a broad background addressing addictions, compassion fatigue, bipolar disorder, and issues such as codependency, impulsivity, infidelity, and isolation to support clients facing complex emotional and interpersonal challenges. Her practice emphasizes a collaborative, person-focused stance that honors each client’s story and strengths.

Rima blends evidence-based strategies with thoughtful exploration of personal narratives, tailoring interventions to the situation at hand. She uses techniques that foster self-understanding, build coping skills, and encourage healthier patterns in relationships and self-care.

Fluent in English and Arabic, she brings cultural awareness to her work and welcomes clients from diverse backgrounds, including international clients. Her goal is to help people strengthen self-love, manage life transitions, reduce symptoms that interfere with daily functioning, and create more satisfying connections with themselves and others.

Approaches that guide online work and growth



Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental stance where the therapist listens closely and helps clients explore their values, feelings, and goals; this approach supports issues like low self-esteem, relationship concerns, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors through practical exercises and skill-building, which can be effective for anxiety, depression, impulsivity, and coping with ADHD-related challenges. Mindfulness Therapy teaches present-moment awareness and grounding techniques to reduce reactivity and improve emotion regulation, often helping with stress, trauma symptoms, and compassion fatigue.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is a process rather than a single decision. Rima collaborates with each person to determine which combination of methods best fits their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adjusts strategies as progress unfolds. This collaborative exploration helps tailor sessions so they remain relevant and effective for the individual.

Online formats offer practical flexibility by allowing work to continue through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, maintain continuity during transitions, and access care across geographic boundaries while working with licensed professionals who use a range of evidence-informed approaches.
