Trauma & Narcissistic Abuse Recovery
Depth work for women rebuilding after coercive relationships, family systems, or long-term trauma. We move at the pace of your nervous system — not the pace of anyone still asking you to hurry.
Services
An investment in your well-being — treated like one.
Every service in this practice is built for depth over volume. Individual therapy is where most work begins; specialized offerings extend from there. Sessions are held via secure telehealth, on a schedule that respects the life you're already carrying.

Toxic Relationships & Family Dynamics
Untangling loyalty from obligation, love from control. Especially attuned to South Asian, Muslim, and collectivist family systems, where naming the harm is often the hardest part of leaving it.
Anxiety & Depression
A core, welcomed area of the practice. Frequently supported by insurance. Practical, evidence-based, and non-pathologizing.
Self-Actualization & Growth
For women who have done the survival work and are now asking a different question: who am I when I'm not managing everyone else? Depth work for values-led living.
VAWA Psychological Evaluations
Comprehensive psychological assessments for VAWA immigration cases. A specialized service requiring doctoral-level clinical judgment and documentation held to legal standards.
Assessment & Evaluation
Psychological testing to understand personality, behaviors, and the roots of emotional, social, or intellectual difficulties — informing precise, effective treatment planning. Offered for emotional and mood regulation, personality, and career-related concerns.
Clinical Supervision
For pre-licensed clinicians pursuing licensure as a Psychologist or Professional Counselor. As a Certified Professional Counselor Supervisor (CPCS), I guide supervisees based on their developmental needs and licensure requirements — invested in your personal and professional growth. Begin with a free phone consultation.
How I work
Ten pillars beneath every session.
The methods change based on who you are and what you need. These commitments don't.
- 01
Reclaiming sense of self
Rebuilding the inner voice that trauma or toxicity worked to silence.
- 02
Trauma recovery & root-level healing
Working at the root — not just the symptoms — so change is lasting.
- 03
Identity & authentic living
Living from who you actually are, not who you were shaped to be.
- 04
Mental health education
Handouts, workshops, and shared frameworks that turn insight into agency.
- 05
Culturally responsive care
Attuned to South Asian, Muslim, and intergenerational contexts.
- 06
Relationships & identity
Untangling who you are from what relationships have asked of you.
- 07
Growth through reflection
Journaling, values work, and structured self-inquiry.
- 08
Empowerment, not fixing
You are not broken. The work is uncovering, not repairing.
- 09
Community building
Retreats, workshops, and gatherings where healing happens in shared space.
- 10
Luxury, beauty & healing environments
Healing is something to be experienced — in environments that feel calm, beautiful, and restorative.
Modality
Telehealth, held with the same care as in-person.
Sessions are conducted via secure video from the comfort of your home or another safe, private location of your choosing. Your therapist will confirm the address of the space you attend from, and a brief screening ensures telehealth is the right fit for your presenting concerns and goals.

The method
Integrative. Customized. Never off-the-shelf.
I draw from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and psychodynamic tradition — but the treatment is always shaped around you. Where useful, we'll incorporate psychoeducation, curated video, and gentle between-session practice.
- 01
Consultation
A 20-minute call to feel the fit before anything else.
- 02
Intake
A longer session to map your history, hopes, and the pattern we're actually working with.
- 03
Weekly work
Sustained, private sessions with room for depth and integration.
- 04
Evolution
As you shift, the work shifts — including moving toward intensives or retreats when the moment is right.
The investment
Self-pay, transparently — with insurance welcomed where it fits.
This is a doctoral-level practice, and fees reflect that. Most clients choose to self-pay for the depth, discretion, and continuity self-pay makes possible — and because they've come to see therapy as one of the more meaningful places to spend money on themselves.
For anxiety and depression work, insurance is often supported. Specific rates and network status are shared transparently during your consultation — no bait, no scripts.

Perspectives from licensed colleagues who know Dr. Wasim's professional work.
“Fatima is professional, sensitive, and caring. She brings her authentic presence to each moment, and this sets the people around her at ease.”
“I have known Dr. Wasim for over 15 years. We collaborated on research as well as consulted with each other over the years. Dr. Wasim is a compassionate therapist who provides culturally aware therapy and has a collaborative approach.”
“I had the pleasure of working with Dr. Fatima Wasim at Duke University’s Counseling and Psychological Services (CAPS). Together, we developed a short-term psychoeducation group based on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which was so well received that we repeated it later in the semester and expanded it into a summer retreat. Throughout these projects, Dr. Wasim impressed me with her warmth, enthusiasm, and genuine care for students. I strongly endorse her skills and abilities as a psychologist.”
“Fatima Wasim is an amazing clinician who demonstrated her acumen and commitment to serving others early in her career. She was charged with the task of helping develop a post-crisis response team protocol that became the foundation for our current process. As a past supervisee and now colleague, I continue to be in awe of Fatima’s intelligence, compassion, and innovation. She is by far one of the best clinicians I have had the privilege to supervise and mentor.”
