Reema Alajaji | ADHD, Autism, Anxiety, Burnout & Trauma-Informed Online Therapy
About the Therapist
My name is Reema (she/her) and I'm a neurodivergent-affirming psychotherapist who works with ADHD and autistic adults navigating anxiety, burnout, overwhelm, and the lasting impact of past experiences or trauma. Many of my clients come to therapy feeling exhausted from masking, self-doubt, or trying to “push through” in systems that weren’t built for them.
I prefer an empathetic, open and collaborative approach to my work, with a focus on compassion and freedom of expression without judgment. Therapy with me is a space to notice what’s happening inside, without pressure or judgment, and to build a relationship with yourself that feels more supportive and sustainable.
I integrate a range of modalities including Internal Family Systems (IFS), EMDR, hypnotherapy, sensorimotor psychotherapy, and somatic work. I also bring my background as a play therapist into my work with adults, offering creative and body-based approaches such as play, art, drama, and inner-child work when helpful and accessible to you. I offer creative and body-based approaches such as play, art, drama, and inner-child work when they feel helpful and accessible to you. Choice, collaboration, and curiosity guide my work, and I often check-in regularly to make sure what we're doing feels right for you. I offer free 20-minute consultations so we can see if working together feels like the right fit before starting the therapeutic process together.

I am neurodivergent and LGBTQIA-affirmative in my work. I intend to foster a safe environment to freely express and show up as you are without judgment. I recognise the grief that runs through our experience of life in the current society, and hold space for grief while affirming and fostering acceptance of personal identity, culture, sexuality, ethnicity, and ability.
I recognise that mental health trainings and teachings are primarily Westernised, and what works for some may not work for all. I am collaborative and co-operative in my approach, and I recognise that you are the expert of your experience. I intend to foster a safe, curious and compassionate space to heal and process what is needed for you, integrating therapeutic modalities that show most helpful, while allowing space and guidance to your own inner wisdom for healing.
With my Masters in Sociology focusing on Gender, Sexuality and Society, I bridge the gap of looking at our individual minds in psychology to how our collective structures, culture and society impact our mental health. I allow space to reflect, grieve, and process our learnt and inherited societal and cultural burdens, where you decide what is released and what is kept in your personal system.
I integrate play, art, drama, and creative expression into sessions. I believe creativity can allow us to process emotions and adversity in a safe and contained way. I also can be a nerd about neuroscience, but only if it interests you as well!
