We are living a life where we always have to be “on.” Life is nonstop, whatever the focus is. You are anxious constantly and feeling overwhelmed daily. You are the person everyone goes to for support but now it’s time to focus on you. Therapy is a space for you to put a stop to the nonstop. Every individual deserves to have a therapeutic space to unpack some of the baggage that is weighing on him/her/them. As sessions progress, you’ll feel equipped in managing your busy days as well as build skills and insight towards what may have been holding you back from living the life you want to live.

I use a client-driven approach when working with clients. I will ask guiding questions to assist clients to learn more about themselves, strive to have clients to self-identify root causes of certain patterns and behaviors that they are experiencing, and provide encouragement to clients to strengthen their self-esteem and confidence. I use Internal Family Systems, DBT, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Motivational Coaching, and Family Dynamics Therapy systems.

Hi! I'm currently accepting new clients! I am a firm believer in the journey and destination. Understanding the root of a difficulty can help gain insight, unlocking doors to a healthy life. If you would like a free consultation, please click "my website" to schedule. Stay amazing! :D

Thank you for reaching out to Dr. Roksana Badruddoja. Family Constellation Therapy is a systemic psychospiritual therapeutic model that reveals the hidden intergenerational dynamics in a family/relationship/situation and the therapeutic approach works towards balancing/neutralizing/healing the system. Dr. Badruddoja has developed a distinctive interfaith/intercultural trauma liberation method—using family and national systems; phenomenology; existentialism; epigenetics and neuroplasticity; emotions; somatics; inner/outer childs; and genotraumagrams—known as Intergenerational Family Trauma Liberation Constellation or IF-TLC.

I work with adults experiencing interpersonal conflict, family conflict, self-esteem issues, anxiety, trauma, depression, grief, and anger management. I work collaboratively with clients to explore and enhance their motivation for change. By working together, we can strengthen your drive to overcome challenges and achieve your goals. Through this approach, we can establish safety, trust, and empowerment in our therapeutic relationship, helping you heal and regain control over your life.

In a session together we will shift feelings of overwhelmed, stress and any adjustment, transition concerns with tenderness, and engaged compassion. We are present with your range of emotions, in an open, curious, empathetic expansive space and we aim to tap into your innate wisdom through insight, humor and joy; and if need be actionable steps. I hope that each session will be restorative, empowering, insightful and powerful in aiding you to identify your values and integrating them organically in your life.

I work with people who are part of the LGBTQIA+ communities and allies. My work is rooted in gender-affirming therapy for those seeking exploration and support around their gender identities. I also work with those who are living with addiction and recovery. I work with clients who live, work and play under a cloak of secrecy; the outside world sees them as goal-driven professionals who have stable relationships and a host of family and friends. My clients hide their struggles with Depression, Anxiety, Low Self Esteem, and Substance Use. My clients want to live and love authentically.

I work broadly with young adults who often have bicultural backgrounds and are experiencing personal issues with themselves, family or relationships. It is a difficult balancing act between you, those close to you and differing cultural norms. Finding autonomy when the expectations of others sometimes burdens us, can lead to feeling anxious, alone or depressed. You can lose yourself to these feelings at times, which is why 1-on-1 therapy is a healthy approach to process these emotions.Family and friends may suggest or want vastly different things than you. In therapy, I will listen while giving you the tools you need for your goals.

I am a trained psychotherapist who received my Master of Science in Advanced Clinical Social Work from Columbia University on a health, mental health, and disabilities track. I approach psychotherapy with a mix of active listening and observations creating a brave space where you can be sure you will be heard. Post graduation, I worked in a variety of settings with a diverse range of clients including those struggling with grief, complex family situations, and relationship struggles. I have a special interest in working with the South Asian and BIPOC population.

As an Indo-Caribbean-American mental health counselor, I bring a deep understanding and empathy to those grappling with mental health challenges. I know firsthand the cultural stigmas that often accompany these struggles. Growing up in a Guyanese household where emotions weren't openly discussed, I've experienced feelings of being misunderstood or ostracized after being vulnerable. I want you to know that I recognize these unique experiences and identities that shape our mental health perspectives. You can expect a safe, non-judgmental space to explore your thoughts and feelings in our sessions.

Each individual has a unique narrative, experiences, and worldview. As a result, two different people may have a completely different outlook on a common experience. In my approach to therapeutic work, I aspire to explore the intersectionality of various identities that an individual holds. My approach to therapy includes identifying and integrating parts of the individual and their experiences to foster self-awareness, practical solutions, and advance personal growth.During our sessions together, I want to approach my clients in a collaborative manner and provide them the tools and space they need to heal, learn, and grow.

I understand that taking the first step to reach out for help can be a difficult decision. Please know that I'm here to provide a safe and compassionate space where you can be heard and understood. I bring a client-centered and empathetic approach to therapy, and I'm committed to helping you on your path towards healing and personal growth. Together we’ll work toward gaining insight into and overcoming the issues that may be holding you back from living a life of peace, joy and meaning.

With the overwhelming demands of life and work, we can often lose sense of who we are and feel as though we are going through the motions. Losing our sense of self, an important relationship, or even a loved one, can leave us feeling disconnected and alone. There is so much that demands our attention, it’s unclear where to start. If you are looking to heal and recover, hoping to reconnect with your inner joy, and searching for moments of peace, I might be able to help.
