Sudheera Ranaweera, Psychologist
Sudheera Ranaweera is a Psychologist in California who has been practicing since 2017. When Sudheera works with clients, she remains mindful of how their lived experiences may impact how they engage with her and how they show up in the therapy space. Sudheera opens up the conversation for ways her identity may be similar or dissimilar to theirs, and ways they can communicate openly, and creates safety and prevent harm in their sessions. Sudheera encourages the clients she works with to share about their families, culture, identities, and values that they feel influence who they are. Sudheera trusts that an individual is the expert on themselves, and she works to help them use their own insights to achieve their personal goals. When providing therapy services to individuals, Sudheera intentionally focuses on what is going well, progress, evidence of resiliency, ways to access and add to internal resources, and support systems.
Outside of work, Sudheera enjoys yoga, writing, drawing, and singing. Her educational background includes Bachelor degrees in Psychology and Biomedical Sciences from the University of South Florida, in addition to a Masters degree and doctorate degree in Clinical Psychology from the University of North Carolina at Greensboro.
