About Tamima

Tamima Tanjin is a Senior Clinical Psychologist with more than two decades of clinical practice in Dhaka. She works across family and couple therapy, child and adolescent crisis support, and addiction — drawing on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), systemic family therapy, Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) and mindfulness-based approaches, alongside neuropsychological assessment.

How she works

Tamima's practice spans two settings that rarely meet: a university hall, where she has supported students through academic pressure and personal crisis for sixteen years, and a de-addiction hospital, where she works with addiction and the families around it. That range shapes how she works — she is used to sitting with a family system, not only the person in front of her, and to holding situations where things have reached crisis point.

Her approach is structured and evidence-based. CBT and DBT give sessions a clear shape and practical tools; systemic family therapy widens the lens when the difficulty lives in relationships rather than one person; mindfulness-based work supports regulation between sessions. She also brings neuropsychological assessment where attention, memory or cognition need proper evaluation rather than assumption.

Experience

Alongside her clinical work, Tamima has taught at university level and has worked in disaster mental health, including earthquake relief response — experience that informs how she approaches acute crisis and trauma.

Research

Tamima is a PhD researcher in the Department of Clinical Psychology at the University of Dhaka. Her published work looks at how psychological intervention delivered over tele-health affected patients with psychosis during COVID-19 restrictions — research that sits directly behind the way Chum Wellness delivers online sessions today.
