Hey there — I’m really glad you’re here. College can be an exciting time, but it can also feel overwhelming, uncertain, or emotionally confusing. Between academic pressure, relationships, identity questions, and figuring out what comes next, it’s easy to feel stretched or stuck. I specialize in supporting first generation college students and BIPOC. My goal is to help you understand what’s going on inside you in a way that actually makes sense — not just label things, but build real transformation and confidence that you can carry forward. I bring a warm, collaborative, and non-judgmental approach to therapy, where you’ll be heard and understood — not rushed to “fix” anything but supported in figuring out your own direction. We’ll work together to strengthen your emotional awareness, navigate stress and relationships, and develop tools that help you feel more grounded and connected both in and outside of the classroom. If you’re looking for a space to slow down, unpack what you’re feeling, and build self-trust — I’d be honored to walk with you through that.

I blend person-centered therapy with CBT, Gestalt, and trauma-informed care, focusing on present-moment awareness and practical tools you can actually use day to day. My background as a Behavior Intervention Specialist also means I'm experienced supporting people with complex mental health needs and intellectual disabilities — and bringing that same concrete, grounded approach to everything I do.

At Mindful Mental Health Counseling, I work best with college-aged young adults in New York and New Jersey who feel stuck in cycles of worry, overthinking, or stress that never seems to let up. Many of my clients struggle with anxiety disorders, OCD, perfectionism, or the pressure to succeed academically and socially. You might notice your heart racing, your body tense, or your mind jumping to the worst-case scenario. You may wish you could focus, make decisions without doubt, or just feel calmer. In our work together, you’ll learn practical strategies to manage anxious thoughts, cope with uncertainty, and reduce both the mental and physical impacts of anxiety. My goal is to help you feel more confident, resilient, and able to engage fully in your life, school, and relationships.

College can be a lot in general. It can especially be when you’re balancing identity, family expectations, and your own hopes for the future. I grew up as a second-generation Chinese American in the Midwest, so I understand what it’s like to move between cultures while trying to figure out who you are. I offer a space where you can slow down, sort through what’s real for you, and make decisions that actually feel aligned. Whether you’re burnt out, overwhelmed, or just trying to make sense of this phase of life, I’m here to support you in a way that feels steady, collaborative, and grounded in your lived experience. Reach out to schedule a Free 15-minute Video or Phone Consultation.

Performing for everyone while quietly struggling underneath is exhausting — and it's one of the most common things nobody talks about on campus. If you're dealing with anxiety, depression, relationship conflict, substance use, or just a relentless inner critic, you don't have to keep managing it alone. I'm also a credentialed substance abuse counselor (CASAC), which means I can offer specialized, judgment-free support for anyone questioning their relationship with substances or navigating recovery in a high-pressure environment — no labels required. My space is direct, warm, and built around your actual life. You don't have to wait for a crisis to reach out. Let's stop the performance and start building something real. *Insurance & Fees* I am in-network with Aetna, Cigna, and Northwell Direct in NY only, and out of network with all other major insurance companies in NY and FL.

My approach as a therapist focuses on providing a space that centers your dignity and care. As a professor and administrator in a university, I recognize and understand the competing needs and interests of students. Sometimes managing studies, and other responsibilities, including work, family, relationships, can be overwhelming, and it can be difficult to prioritize what is important. This might manifest as burnout, lack of focus, feelings of anxiety or sadness, as well as chronic or recurring illness, fatigue, impulsive behavior, or isolation. Often it is helpful to have a safe space to unload and release what is on our minds, and share what we are holding. I understand starting this therapeutic process requires courage and vulnerability, and I am dedicated to building a collaborative partnership that honors your experiences and needs, offers a space where you are seen and heard, and feels empowering. My therapeutic approach is care centered, and incorporates a social justice and trauma informed lens, to meet your unique needs and identities. When helpful, I also used mindfulness and somatic approaches to support reflection, regulation, and resilience. Reach out to schedule a Free 15-minute Video Consultation to help us determine if we're the right fit. I look forward to working with you!

I provide therapy through WellQor, offering convenient online counseling for college students and young adults throughout New York. Many of my clients feel overwhelmed by anxiety, stress, self-doubt, or life changes, and they're looking for a space where they can be honest about what they're experiencing without fear of judgment. I especially enjoy working with students who are exploring their identity, adjusting to new environments, navigating transitions, or struggling with feelings of sadness, loneliness, or uncertainty. You don't need to have everything figured out before starting therapy. Whether you're facing a specific challenge or simply want to better understand yourself, therapy can help you build confidence, develop healthy coping skills, and create a life that feels more aligned with your values and goals. I believe some of the biggest periods of growth happen during times of transition and self-discovery. My goal is to create a compassionate, non-judgmental space where you feel comfortable showing up as your authentic self, exploring your experiences, and developing tools to support your emotional well-being. WellQor accepts most major insurance plans, making quality mental health care more accessible. I'd be honored to support you as you work toward feeling more confident, balanced, and connected in both college and everyday life.

Do you feel like you have little control over your thoughts? Do you have difficulty sharing and making sense of your feelings? These issues may be the result of limited self-awareness, and/or challenges managing and regulating your emotions. These challenges can sometimes lead to difficulty managing conflict in your relationships with others whether at home/work/socially. Seeking support through therapy is an excellent first step. Therapy can help you gain insight and awareness on how past experiences affect your current relationships and behavior patterns. As a first-generation Indian female, I have a unique perspective on culture and family dynamics. I understand the importance of cultural/social elements in one’s development and perception. Through these experiences, I have learned that therapy is not a “one-size-fits-all” modality but instead must take into consideration each person’s unique background. I serve young adults of all backgrounds. I am particularly interested in helping those struggling with anxiety, ADHD, body dysmorphia, depression, and attachment issues. In addition, I serve people dealing with cultural trauma.
