Are you feeling anxious, depressed, struggling with friendship conflict or complicated family dynamics? Maybe these feelings are new and unsettling or familiar and exhausting. It is perfectly normal to have difficult times in your life and you might need some additional support to ease the burden- being a college student is hard! In therapy, we can discuss your current concerns and explore your previous experiences in order for you increase your self understanding and feel a sense of choice and agency in your life. I aim to provide a safe, genuine and empathic environment while utilizing our relationship to facilitate collaborative and meaningful change. Together, we can work to increase your emotional coping skills and help you overcome your current barriers. I have extensive training in college counseling and completed my predoctoral internship and post doctoral fellowship at the University of Rochester's Counseling Center.

My work in the field of counseling began in 1992 and I have been a clinician in practice for over 25 years. I specialize in helping clients work through trauma, depression, anxiety, grief and loss, and supporting them on their journey to improved balance in life. My therapeutic approach is person centered. I work closely with clients to help them connect with their values, gain personal insight, understanding and self-compassion. With a trauma-informed mindset, I strive to create a safe and therapeutic environment. This entails a blend of treatment interventions designed to best match individual needs. I draw inspiration from the work of colleagues like: Brene Brown, Bessel Van der Kolk, Gabor Mate, Alfred Adler, Carl Rogers, and Carl Jung. These individuals are leaders in the field of counseling and therapy. They are the inspiration that has helped build my foundation for an enduring and balanced practice. My counseling background includes work with adults, college students, children and families, couples, Military Personnel, Veterans, and their families, as well as disabled adults. In my current work, I focus on helping individuals rebuild a foundation from which to grow from. Because I am a firm believer in the power of yoga, self-reflection, and meditation; when appropriate, I weave Eastern Philosophies into treatment. For example, the body holds trauma in seven main body parts (pelvis, diaphragm, throat, jaw, hamstrings, shoulders, and neck). With the application of some yoga, meditation, and mindful attention, we can help the body release underlying trapped feelings so that healing can begin.

I work with college students across New York State through video and phone therapy. Many students I see feel overwhelmed by anxiety, burnout, perfectionism, relationship stress, procrastination, or uncertainty about the future. Even high achieving students can feel stuck, exhausted, or disconnected from themselves. Sometimes you need space to vent, process, and feel heard. Other times, you want concrete strategies and a clearer path forward. I believe therapy should be both supportive and active, a place where you can talk honestly about what’s weighing on you while also building practical tools that help you feel better outside of sessions. As a Level 3 certified TEAM CBT therapist, I take a collaborative, goal oriented approach that helps students better understand the patterns keeping them stuck while building skills to manage emotions, improve confidence, and create meaningful change. The insights and strategies you gain in therapy can continue supporting you long after sessions end. If you’re ready to feel more grounded, capable, and connected, reach out for a free 15 minute consultation to see if we’d be a good fit.

Hey there! College is a whole other world—fun, stressful, overwhelming, and everything in between. Maybe you’re juggling deadlines, relationships, family pressure, or just trying to figure out who the heck you are and what you actually want. If anxiety, burnout, or self-doubt are getting in the way of your happiness (or your grades), you’re not alone—and you don’t have to figure it all out by yourself. I help college students who feel stuck, anxious, or drained by people-pleasing and perfectionism. Together, we’ll work through the stress, heal old wounds, and build confidence so you can actually enjoy your life—not just push through it. My approach is supportive, down-to-earth, and tailored to you. Whether you need a space to vent, tools to handle stress, or a deeper dive into what’s holding you back, I’m here to help. If you’re ready to feel more in control of your life, let’s chat.

I’m a social worker with nearly 20 years of experience helping people navigate life’s challenges with more clarity and confidence. I work especially well with young adults facing stress, anxiety, relationship issues, life transitions, neurodivergence, and the pressure to “figure it all out.” Therapy with me is real, practical, and judgment-free. It’s a space to slow down, feel understood, and build tools you can actually use in everyday life. You’re not broken — just human. And you don’t have to sort it out alone.

Hi, I’m Dhvani! I offer virtual therapy sessions for students in NY and NJ who may be looking for support beyond their campus counseling center. I work with people navigating anxiety, stress, relationship concerns, and life transitions—especially during demanding or uncertain times in school. My goal is to provide a supportive, nonjudgmental space where you can slow down, feel heard, and begin to make sense of what you’re going through. My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in evidence-based practices like mindfulness and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). I understand that therapy isn’t one-size-fits-all. Together, we’ll tailor our work based on your goals—whether that means building practical tools to manage day-to-day stress or exploring deeper patterns that may be shaping your experiences. Finding the right therapist matters. If you’re interested in working together, I’d be happy to connect for a free consultation to see if it feels like a good fit for you.
