About Me
I believe that the depth I am able to bring to the therapeutic space is shaped, in part, by my willingness to engage in my own inner work.
My own healing, self-exploration, and growth have been an intentional and ongoing part of my life and development as a therapist, artist and seeker..
I continue to turn toward my own patterns, wounds, and edges with curiosity, knowing that this work is never finished.
I believe this ongoing practice allows me to meet my clients with greater presence, humility, and capacity to accompany them in the places they are exploring.
So who AM I ?
Rasha Shalaby, LMFT
I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with a Master’s degree in Clinical Psychology from Antioch University.. I am trained in psychodynamic theory and EMDR, with experience working with Trauma, including War, sexual Violence, complex Trauma and grief.
I have a vast understanding and experience working Psychedelic Integration, and I am a certified Kundalini Yoga teacher and Breathwork Healer.
Together, these perspectives and practices allow me to bring an integrative approach to our work, one that attends to the mind, body, relationships, and deeper dimensions of your psyche and experience.
I use she/her/hers pronouns.
My practice is LGBTQ+ affirmative and sex positive.
I recognize the ongoing impact of white supremacy and colonialism and believe that awareness must be accompanied by action. This means continually examining my own assumptions and the ways power and privilege enter the therapeutic relationship, while honoring and centering the lived experiences, knowledge, and needs of BIPOC and other marginalized communities across intersecting identities, both within the therapeutic space and beyond it.
