Thanks for taking a moment to find out more about my services! I enjoy working with individuals (including adolescents) and couples and specialize in Premarital, Interfaith, Multicultural, and Infertility work. I strive to create a safe space for my clients to share, be heard and witnessed, explore, heal, and grow. My style of working with clients is relational, holistic, collaborative, and creative. I deeply believe in a client-centered and strengths-based approach. My counseling technique is a combination of depth oriented, family systems, and experiential therapies (i.e., art/play therapy, mindfulness) with the goals of insight, healing, and behavior change.

As a depth oriented therapist and life coach, I offer a safe, emotionally warm, non-judgmental therapeutic space for individuals and couples to examine behavioral patterns, explore and develop strategies to issues of anxiety, depression, confidence, shame, self-worth, self-esteem, grief, life transitions, and dating. I provide a safe and warm space for men, LGBTQ, multicultural and diasporic identities to express, and process their issues and concerns. Together, we will collaborate and explore mindful ways to remove potential barriers to the marital or professional relationship, career or academic progress you can achieve.

In the busiest and most competitive city in the world it is hard to find a moment and place where you can be unedited, unfiltered and not judged. I provide a safe space for you to throw all of your own puzzle pieces on the table and work collaboratively with you to help put it all together. I work with you to gain clarity on underlying issues preventing you from feeling heard and moving forward.

I have 23 years experience treating patients with anxiety issues, depression issues, O-CD issues, stage of life issues, stress reduction issues, marital/relationship issues, behavioral issues, mood disorders, career issues, self-esteem issues, anger management issues, adult ADHD, sexual identity issues, attachment issues, self-harm issues, and Bi-polar issues.

Feeling alone, confused or overwhelmed? Struggling with an unhealthy relationship or having trouble establishing a fulfilling, intimate one? Feeling stuck, unmotivated, procrastinating, yet realizing that you’re not reaching your personal or professional potentials? Psychotherapy with a trained and experienced professional can provide a safe space to deal with these and many other issues and facilitate change. Often, emotional injuries or trauma from the past impact the present and how we interact with others, talking with a concerned professional is an important part of the healing process.

I work with children, adolescents, adults, couples and families of all possible configurations. If you are seeking therapy for your child, I will also work with you to assist you in parenting your child. I listen for the voices of those who feel unheard in a variety of interpersonal contexts; those who may have experienced difficult or abusive relationships with a primary attachment figure (not necessarily a parent), or who have experienced the loss of a parent, and who may struggle with anger, shame, a sense of invisibility...or maybe feelings they cannot yet describe.

As a clinician, Ruthann strives to promote advocacy across the multiple communities she has served through her life's work. She finds passion in truly believing that all persons can live rewarding lives regardless of their financial, social, intellectual, physiological, and emotional differences. Through her acknowledgement of the cultural factors that contribute to her clients' narratives, she strives to create approaches that cater to their mental health and wellness needs.

Anxiety, depression, relationship problems and stressful life transitions often trigger the desire to seek help from a psychotherapist. It is my role to create an atmosphere of trust and safety conducive to the telling of your story and challenges and then exploring new ways of working on these. I like to introduce different ways of thinking about a problem to open up various possibilities and solutions. Together, we work to move you closer to your goals.

Do you sometimes find yourself in uncomfortable or painful interactions with others? Do you find yourself conflicted about decisions? Perhaps your difficulties are intense and active, infused with a sense of dread or anger. Or maybe it might be more like a deadness in the form of numbing or repetitive patterns from which you wish to awaken and/or relax into a life of homeostasis.

As a South Asian TCK psychotherapist who grew up in both the US and Europe, I deeply understand the complexities of adapting to new cultures while holding onto the core values that form an integral part of our identities. Navigating life's transitions often leaves us without time to process the shifts in our emotional world. My primary mission in therapy is to guide you in exploring and resolving pent up feelings with compassionate awareness and care. Our sessions will be a collaborative exploration of tough emotional experiences, in a space that is safe and connected.

I am a University of Pennsylvania trained, millennial, Indian-American, psychotherapist who utilizes emotion-focused methods to help you generate a stronger sense of self. My main goals in therapy are to help you feel less alone with your emotions and to help you feel more understood in your experience as a POC in the United States. As a child of immigrants, I can relate to the unique challenge of straddling two very different cultures and trying to fit in with both. Oftentimes, I will draw from my personal experience of navigating similar cultural, generational, and racial clashes to better support you.

I am a bi-racial, bi-cultural psychotherapist who has extensive experience working with multiple marginalized states of otherness, including pansexual and gender non-conforming identities. I work psychodynamically, but more specifically from a trauma-based, attachment/ object relations modality. Within my training, I also integrate anti-racist, critical and feminist theories, as well as behavioral strategies. I am heavily invested in the current socio/political paradigm and social media, largely because I see how the internet can serve to amplify avoidance strategies and create psychological ill health.

I am a seasoned, dedicated individual and couples therapist with over 15 years of experience treating adults struggling with anxiety, depression, loss and grieving, relationship issues and work challenges. I will work collaboratively with you to gently and compassionately explore the recurring patterns in behavior and relating that cause you pain and stop you from getting what you want personally and professionally. We'll look to the past but spend most of our time in the present learning more effective ways to make decisions, take action and communicate with the important people in your life.

It can start with a question. Why do I feel so...? How do I stop doing...? Do I have to settle for...? For many of us there may come a time when we ask ourselves do I need help? Asking for help is, arguably, the most difficult thing for people to do and maybe you're thinking about taking that step. There are many reasons why someone would seek therapy. If you are an individual or a couple and that journey has led you here, welcome.

I am an interactive, warm therapist who specializes in helping individuals struggling with anxiety, work/life balance, career pressures and concerns, and relationships. I also work with couples who are experiencing relational distress and intimacy concerns. My goal is to provide a safe place for you as you take steps to create lasting change in your life.

As a psychologist, I am unusual in that I am also a lawyer who worked in government, finance, and media. I leverage my professional experience to tailor treatment to meet the needs of high-functioning executives. I typically work with people experiencing anxiety, attentional, depressive, grief, personality, and trauma-/stressor-related disorders, as well as people adjusting to major life changes. I specialize in time-limited, structured therapy. I provide detailed psychodiagnostic assessments and establish clear agreement regarding treatment goals before transitioning to treatment.

My goal is to empower clients to navigate life's challenges by developing effective coping strategies, enhancing their self-awareness, and fostering resilience. I am deeply passionate about destigmatizing mental health and promoting its importance in overall well-being. By collaboratively working with clients, I strive to facilitate positive changes that lead to lasting emotional healing and personal transformation.
