My treatment methods
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I have formal training, both didacting and through direct clinical supervision, in utilizing CBT as a treatment modality for individuals and families. I assist clients in identifying patterns of thinking and behaving that are causing them distress. In so doing, I help them achieve their treatment goals through bringing the desired changes and assisting them in establishing the patterns of thought and behaviors that improve their lives and alleviate distress. Through it, I have helped individuals overcome depression, anxiety, and problematic relationship patterns.
Child Parent Psychotherapy
I received my clinical training in The Children's Psychiatric Center of Monmouth County New Jersey. There I was trained in a variety of modalities of child and family psychotherapy. Since that time, I have had 20+ years of direct experience assisting parents and children in achieving success in their relationships and their goals.
Mindfulness-Based Therapy
Utilizing Mindfulness-Based Therapies, I assist clients in growing in greater self-awareness and in enhancing personal growth and finding happiness and fulfillment in life.

Dr. Rasheed is exactly the therapist I've been looking to work with for years now. She is knowledgeable, calm, compassionate, and I always end the session feeling grounded and capable. She brings a sense of humanity and connection with a wealth of knowledge and actionable strategies. I have the utmost respect and admiration for what she does in every session and how she gently challenges me to think differently and believe in myself and my capabilities. I am so grateful to have found her.

Ms. Sakinah Is extremely patient and open minded as well. I love our sessions lots because of these things and the willingness to help. Even though I only had two options to review with, if I had the choice I'd put more. Her energy is very kind and warm, and I enjoy our sessions every time. even if I'm sad haha.
