Sultana Karim, LCPC, LPC, CCTP, PMH-C, Certified EMDR Therapist

Feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or unlike yourself during pregnancy or postpartum? You’re not alone—and you don’t have to navigate this on your own.

I am a licensed therapist and owner of Karim Counseling Services, PLLC, specializing in perinatal mental health and trauma therapy. I support individuals navigating pregnancy, postpartum, infertility, birth trauma, and perinatal loss, including miscarriage and infant loss. I also provide affirming care for those exploring abortion and termination for medical reasons (TFMR).

My approach is trauma-informed, culturally responsive, and collaborative. I integrate EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), Internal Family Systems (IFS), and DBT-informed skills to help clients process trauma, manage postpartum anxiety and depression, and feel more grounded and connected to themselves.

As a mom and military spouse, I understand the emotional weight of caregiving, identity shifts, and navigating high-stress environments. I am especially attuned to supporting individuals who feel pressure to “hold it all together” while struggling internally.

I offer virtual postpartum therapy in Washington, DC, Maryland, Virginia, and Michigan, making specialized perinatal mental health care accessible.

You deserve support that truly understands this season of life. Therapy can be a space where you feel seen, supported, and able to reconnect with yourself.
