Meeting the Therapist Behind This Space
This page is an invitation to understand the therapeutic space you’re entering — and the person who holds it.
Sukoon means inner steadiness. It’s the felt sense of being able to breathe again, to slow down, and to listen to what has been carried too much for too long. This kind of stabilization doesn’t happen through force or performance. It happens when you are met with respect, curiosity, and care.
At Sukoon Consultancy Space , therapy is grounded in one core principle: healing happens in relationship, not through pressure.
This is not a space for fixing what’s “broken,” pushing through pain, or forcing change. It is a collaborative, human-to-human process that prioritizes safety, pacing and dignity
Clients come here when they feel exhausted by surviving, overwhelmed by trauma or grief, or disconnected from themselves and their relationships. Therapy focuses on stabilization first—so deeper work can happen safely and sustainably.
Sukoon Consultancy Space is led by Rim Yassine, a Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC) in British Columbia and a Registered Psychotherapist (RP) in Ontario, offering online trauma-informed individual and relationship therapy for adults across BC and Ontario, with a focus on trauma, grief, identity exploration, and nervous system regulation.
Below, you’ll find more about my clinical background, training, and the path that shaped this work.

Registered Clinical Counsellor (BC) & Registered Psychotherapist (ON)
Rim Yassine (They/Them)
RCC, RP, Brainspotting Practitioner
I’m Rim Yassine, a queer, non-binary therapist offering online individual and relationship therapy to clients in British Columbia and Ontario.
I bring over 10 years of experience in mental health care, with a background in psychiatric nursing and counselling across hospital, community, and psychotherapy settings. I’ve lived and worked in Lebanon, Australia, and Canada, and my clinical work is shaped by migration, war, grief, and rebuilding a sense of safety across transitions.
I am a Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC) in British Columbia and a Registered Psychotherapist (RP) in Ontario. My work supports adults navigating trauma, grief, identity exploration, relational wounds, medical complexity, and nervous system overwhelm.
While my training matters, what guides my work most is discernment — knowing when to slow down, when to stabilize, and when deeper exploration is actually safe and supportive. This helps prevent therapy from becoming overwhelming, destabilizing, or retraumatizing.
How My Lived Experience Informs My Work
Being queer, non-binary, Middle Eastern, an immigrant, and a child of war shapes how I listen and how I hold space.
I work with an awareness of power, systemic harm, and cultural context—not as abstract concepts but as realities that live in the body and relationships. I don’t reduce people to diagnoses or coping strategies, and I don’t separate personal suffering from the environments that produced it.
At the same time, therapy is not about identity alone. It’s about helping you reconnect with clarity, agency, and a sense of internal steadiness—at a pace your nervous system can tolerate.
Who I Work Well With
I tend to work best with people who are navigating:
·trauma or long-standing emotional overwhelm
·grief, loss, or major life transitions
.identity questions or internal conflict
·relational or attachment-based wounds
·burnout, chronic stress, or nervous system exhaustion
Many clients I work with have tried therapy before and felt misunderstood, rushed, or pushed to “cope better”. They come here to Sukoon to seek depth, steadiness, and a therapeutic relationship that feels safe enough to slow down.
