Picture
Sabeen Shaiq, LCSW has been formally working in the field since 2005 and was licensed in 2012. She has been providing tele-therapy services to her clients since 2014.

She has worked internationally with Doctors Without Borders and Islamic Relief. And as a Clinical Supervisor for the past 6 years at local non-profits working with foster youth. She has studied under generative somatics for years and holds a somatic framework along with a relational psychodynamic framework which she learned from doing a post-grad training program through the Women’s Therapy Center in Berkeley.
She also incorporates an understanding of oppression and intergenerational trauma into the way she works.  

Sabeen has an interest in teaching and working with people of color, immigrants, youth and women.  As a Muslim and a product of a family who immigrated here she is also passionate about issues surrounding spirituality, religiosity, and immigration.

She was raised in the Bay Area, California and for the past 2 years she has taken all of her work experience and skills to build a fully remote and online private practice as she travels and lives wherever the wind blows her. She has traveled solo to 42 countries and lived in 3. Those experiences have significantly shaped her, healed her and grounded her in a global community. Her most fulfilling and joyful job is being an Aunt to her nibblings.  She is also deeply interested in researching and collaborating on ways to Decolonize Therapy.
