Aloha! My name is Syeda Rabia Maharaj, but please do call me Rabia. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in the beautiful state of Hawaii with 4 years of professional work experience. I graduated with my Bachelor's in Social Work from Adelphi University in Long Island, NY in 2016 and Master's in Social Work with a specialization in Gerontology at the University of Hawaii at Manoa in Honolulu, HI in 2020. I lived in Hawaii for 6 years and recently made the move to Southern California.

I like to be personable and relatable in my therapeutic approach while also challenging you to think outside the box.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
