Hi My name is Skylar Nijhawan and I strive for an individualistic rounded approach with all of my clients. As a Bi-racial woman, I understand how important your culture can be and the values that may differ from societal norms. As a Bisexual woman, I understand how much of our identity is tied into our communities and the people we surround ourselves with. I strive to make a safe space for all of my clients regardless of ethnicity, race, gender, sexuality, or religion. Together we can work on gathering your toolkit to create your own journey into wellness. I use an integrative approach using DBT skillwork, CBT, and Humanistic approach to allow for multiple avenues for you to complete your journey.
My passion is to create a space where conversations about mental health feel natural and open, fostering an environment where clients can express themselves freely. My journey in the mental health field started with a deep curiosity about human connection and a desire to understand how each individual experiences and expresses emotions. I specialize in supporting individuals facing depression, anxiety, relationship challenges, and self-esteem issues. My mission is to dismantle the stigmas surrounding mental health, particularly in communities where these conversations are often avoided.
I believe in empowering clients to embrace vulnerability as a profound strength rather than a weakness. Through a blend of interpersonal psychotherapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and other personalized approaches, I work collaboratively with you to address the internal struggles that may be hindering your personal growth. Our sessions will provide a safe space to deepen your self-awareness and take meaningful steps toward becoming the best version of yourself.
Hello! My name is Radheeka, and I strive to offer a welcoming, open environment where you can feel truly listened to, valued, and supported just as you are. Stepping into therapy and sharing your story with someone new takes courage and can feel daunting, which is why I meet every client with genuine warmth, deep curiosity, and complete acceptance. Together, we can gently examine what you are going through while uncovering the roots of your emotional patterns, self-perceptions, and relationship dynamics.
My clinical work is integrative and tailored to your unique journey, blending insights from Psychodynamic therapy, Internal Family Systems (IFS), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and body-centered somatic techniques. I place special focus on understanding how earlier life experiences and relationships continue to influence your present sense of self and connection with others.
Ultimately, my hope is to provide a safe space where you can gain self-clarity, unravel long-standing patterns, and take meaningful steps toward a more authentic and fulfilling life.
