Hi, my name is Dr. Nadia Huq. I am a licensed clinical psychologist who specializes in working with children, adolescents, and their families. Previously, I worked as a psychologist at New York Presbyterian Hospital/Columbia University Irving Medical Center’s Pediatric Psychiatry Department for 7 years. While I am primarily trained in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Parent-Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT), my therapeutic approach integrates multiple modalities to address an individual’s treatment goals. I often collaborate with schools and additional treatment providers in order to provide comprehensive care for my clients.

I have over 23 years of experience helping children, adolescents, individuals, couples and families lead healthier and more rewarding lives. I empower clients from a wide range of backgrounds, including many with special needs, by helping them build self-awareness, identify their challenges, and gain the tools to regain confidence and purpose in their lives.

Life can be difficult at times. People could feel "dissatisfied with life," or "unfulfilled," despite the efforts. Collaborating with a skilled psychotherapist could help a person or a couple identify and break the maladaptive patterns, make positive changes, and experience more happiness and freedom. I am a bilingual (Chinese & English) psychologist with over 19 years of training and experience. I adopt an integrative style, blending elements of Psychodynamic, Interpersonal, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) through the lens of attachment and culture.

I’m a licensed psychologist providing virtual psychotherapy services for children, adolescents, and families in New York and New Jersey, as well as in the 35 and counting PSYPACT states (please see the list below). My areas of specialty include anxiety, trauma, ADHD, early childhood issues, and immigrant family dynamics. I also help adults navigate various life transitions and parenting issues to foster connection, balance, and growth.

My "ideal client" knows to provide loved ones the very best, he or she must also be at an individual best. Short-changing the "self" depletes the ability to offer abundance to others. Whereas prospering in heart, health, mind, and body lead to connections of premium value. My clients look beyond the ordinary, knowing possibilities are endless and will be found with concerted effort and bravery. Keeping life fresh, free and filled with potential, elevates us all. When my clients depart they have renewed joy and gratitude because they are awakened to the gifts that were once just beyond their reach but now part their life scripts.

In my work, I have always strived to help others. Being a therapist & helping others through counseling has truly become my passion. As a first generation Muslim- Pakistani, I have found hope and healing for my clients and for myself in therapy. I firmly believe with a help of a therapist, you can break cycles, and start new patterns. My job is to support you and provide a safe space so you can explore all feelings without judgment. I use a strengths based approach with all my clients. Relationships are a focus of my work.

My interventions are drawn from cognitive behavioral (CBT), dialectical behavioral (DBT), psychodynamic, and family systems approaches. I have expertise in treating anxiety, depression, trauma, behavioral issues, ADHD and related learning disabilities, developmental disorders, personality disorders, and family conflict. I also have extensive experience working with eating disorders through intensive internship and fellowship placements at The Renfrew Center of Philadelphia and Florida. I am well versed in the administration and interpretation of comprehensive psychological assessments. I work with clients across the lifespan helping to optimize inherent strengths to better cope with the demands of their academic, social, professional, and family contexts.

Are you having a crisis of self-confidence? Low self-esteem and stress are impacting your everyday life. The relationship you have with yourself is at an all-time low. You notice that your relationships with others have changed, too. You want to feel better about yourself, but you don’t know where to start. Life’s stressors can bring you down, causing you to constantly question yourself.

As a first-generation Asian-American born to immigrant parents, a member of the LGBTQ+ community, and an advocate for the Deaf community, I believe that an individual’s cultures and communities are key factors in their self-actualization.

I am dually licensed as a licensed clinical social worker and licensed clinical alcohol drug counselor. I have experience with working in various mental health settings which allows me to provide individualized therapy to meet your needs.
