Suha Rehma
@suharehma
Masters-level Mental Health Expert specializing in CBT and AI safety evaluation for clinical harm mitigation.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Masters-level Mental Health Expert and certified CBT Practitioner with clinical experience across inpatient psychiatric hospitals, neurodevelopmental clinics, school counselling, and private practice settings in India. I evaluate LLM-generated mental health content (Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity) for clinical accuracy, harm potential, and ethical compliance using structured psychometric rubrics.
I also bring hands-on safety work—red teaming across crisis, suicidality, psychopathology, and trauma domains, building behavioral taxonomies, and supporting AI safety policy with clear guardrails for mental health-adjacent deployments. In parallel, I deliver remote and in-person care using CBT/REBT and person-centred approaches for youth, LGBTQIA+ individuals, and neurodiverse clients, with strong focus on trauma-informed crisis intervention and risk assessment.
