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.

Are you finding yourself overwhelmed by your new environment, new people and a lack of connection? Are you concerned what your next step might be? Are you unsure who to turn to discuss your concerns? Have you been drinking or smoking more than usual to help ease the anxiety, loneliness or uncertainty? College is a very stressful time for the most well adjusted person, I am here to listen, guide and support you through your adjustment. I will help you explore your areas of concern. I am here to guide you, not tell you what you need. You are the expert of your life, I can offer you skills to help you overcome the uncomfortable feelings. I offer online therapy as well as in-person sessions. I believe therapy is an opportunity for people to develop insight into themselves in order to find self-acceptance and a deeper connection with others. We will explore the barriers that are interfering with reaching your desired goals. I will support you in developing new coping strategies that can be applied to a variety of life situations. Feelings are overwhelming and unhealthy patterns are developed as a defense. I will encourage you and gently guide you through the challenges.

Life transitions are my specialty and college is full of them! The pressures that students face can include feeling overwhelmed by college responsibilities, parent expectations, time management, career confusion, as well as "adulting" in general. Even social life can be a stressor. Some of my clients have found that past experiences or traumas have become obstacles to reaching their goals.

Biography: Hello! Thank you for visiting my Teladoc profile. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the state of New York with over 20 years of experience in mental health. I graduated with a Doctorate of Social Work from Capella University, a Masters of Social Work from Marywood University, and undergraduate degree from State University of NY -Suny Empire. I specialize in working with teens and adults coping with life stressors related to personal relationships, life changes, work-related issues, stress/anxiety, depression, substance use disorders, and trauma. I have diverse experience from a variety of treatment settings. I have worked as a school-based social worker in both a school-based mental health center and as a social work consultant, worked with soldiers and their families on military installations, and worked in outpatient mental health clinics. I use a person-centered, trauma-informed approach tailored to the unique needs of each individual. Each person has a unique perspective and set of core beliefs around their experience of life. Through exploration of these perspectives and beliefs one can connect to the truth within themselves in the present moment, become free from self-generated suffering, and gain insight, clarity and choice in their behavior. Modalities utilized in therapy include Cognitive Processing therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Compassionate Inquiry, Act therapy, and Positive Psychology. I believe that each person entering therapy is seeking to find the answers for their lives that will enhance their ability to have the best life possible. Life happens and then each of us need to figure it out. Sometimes we need someone to come along side on our journey to help us find our best way forward. Remember, life is a journey, not a destination. I look forward to working with you!

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and therapist, providing support and guidance to LGBTQ+ folks who often don’t see themselves represented in the world around them or reflected in their search for the right-fit therapist. While I regularly help folks work through depression, anxiety, and trauma, we also freely discuss other topics that might not otherwise feel comfortable, including sex, faith, and the impact of diet culture. Nothing is off limits. I also regularly work with neurodivergent folks, especially around the emotional impact of ADHD, and exploring autistic identity. I am licensed in both New York and Wisconsin, and see clients throughout both states through video sessions.

Hi, my name is Dr. Evan Podolak. I am a psychologist and work with teens and adults to help them if they are struggling with anxiety, depression, fears, stress and relationship issues. I work collaboratively with students to help them think about their problems in a more helpful way and to learn better ways to cope with their daily experiences.

Welcome! I offer a light hearted, approachable, and down to earth experience during sessions. I want all of my clients to walk away feeling motivated and secure with his/her journey towards wellness. Maybe you feel like something is "wrong" with you, you're stuck in life, or you're not even sure how to cope. I can help you take those difficult steps forward. I work with many clients that are dealing with current or past traumas, general anxiety, panic attacks, depression, stress management, and low self confidence. If you see yourself in any of those scenarios please reach out and let's talk! Allow me to be your sounding board. The first step towards healing is taking that initial step. Making sure my clients feel heard is my number one priority.

I am a New York State licensed therapist working with adults and adolescents experiencing depression, anxiety, and OCD. Many of the people I work with are high functioning and successful, but feel stuck in patterns of overthinking, avoidance, or low mood that are difficult to shift. In therapy, we focus on understanding these patterns and developing practical strategies to respond differently. This often includes learning skills to manage intrusive or anxious thoughts, improve mood, and increase tolerance for uncertainty and difficult emotions. My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in practical strategies, while also providing space to explore underlying factors that may cause distress. I use evidence-based treatments including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP).

As a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, I bring considerable expertise to my position as a provider in an outpatient substance abuse clinic.

Congrats on taking the first step towards therapy! I know that seeking help can be a difficult decision, and there is no greater importance than finding the right fit for you and your needs. Together, we will work towards navigating life transitions, complex traumas, substance abuse, relationship difficulties, mood dysregulation, and anxiety symptoms. You can expect to be met by unwavering support and gentle challenges to address your goals. My approach to therapy is grounded in a non-judgmental perspective, and I often use a healthy dose of humor in our sessions to lighten the mood and make therapy a more enjoyable experience. In a world that often moves too fast, my therapy services provide a space where you can slow down, reflect, and embark on a journey of self-discovery. I draw from a holistic and client-centered approach to therapy, in order to provide a well-rounded therapeutic experience that fosters both emotional healing and personal growth. At the core of my practice is the belief that every person has the innate capacity for change and self-improvement. Begin your journey today by reaching out, let's take the first step together towards a happier, healthier, and more fulfilling life.
