Are you letting your emotions rule your life? Do you make decisions based on how you feel rather than what is best for you? If you answered YES then Cognitive Therapy can help you change your thinking and create the life you are seeking. Whether you are struggling with depression, panic attacks or going through life transitions, I can help you learn necessary skills to make your life a journey rather than a struggle. I feel priviledged having the opportunity to work with individuals, teach them CBT and see them transform right in front of me.

Hi there, and welcome! I believe that our lives and relationships are shaped by stories—stories about who we are, where we’ve come from, and where we might be headed. Sometimes, those stories leave us feeling disconnected from ourselves and others, and it’s in these moments that therapy can be a powerful, transformative space. Together, we won’t just talk; we’ll work through the emotions, patterns, and underlying dynamics that shape your experiences. This process requires courage and vulnerability, but it’s through this relational work that real understanding and change can take place.

Hello! I am so glad you found your way here. I am Roshni and I specialize in relational work. I primarily work with couples and when I get lucky I have the privilege to sit with the whole family. I believe the problem lies in the larger context as opposed to in an individual. So, in our sessions, we will have conversations around childhood attachments, culture, race, gender, ancestry, immigration, religion etc., and how these themes impact the way we show up in our relationships with others and ourselves. My research has focused one premarital therapy. I am trained, and specialize in couple’s therapy modalities.
