Asian Therapists in Hoboken, NJ

As an immigrant and South Asian woman of color, I am dedicated to helping individuals feel empowered and develop healthy growth-fostering connections through mutual empathy, authenticity, and genuineness.

My name is Samuel, and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and Certified Life Coach working with men who struggle with anxiety, dating & relationships and communication. As a therapist, I’ve worked with children all the way to elder populations on anxiety, depression, trauma, addiction, grief & loss. The past 4 years, I've focused on Asian-Americans or 1st, 2nd and even 3rd generation children because of my journey growing up with immigrant parents in the US and the challenges associated with that as well as to provide culturally competent care in the mental health field which is often lacking.

I work with both couples and individuals of all ages, and have a collaborative approach that leaves room for humor amidst intensity and gentleness amidst serious change. I have specialized experience providing sex therapy, LGBTQ+ support, Asian American culturally competent care, and counseling for multicultural identities and relationships. These therapeutic specialties further overlap with my passions for healthcare equity and activism for collective liberation. Clinical social work cannot merely be the bandaid that makes oppression easier to stomach; it should be part of the work that gets us free.

Your pain, story, identity and experiences are valid and as a South Asian Immigrant I am here to support you on your journey. I meet my clients where they are at by listening and attuning to what they say in their gestures, their quirks, and their silence. They hold the ultimate power to move forward, while I equip and help empower them with the necessary tools. I come into the sessions with the belief that my client and I will both learn something new. Clients are not just the painters of their canvases, they need environmental reinforcements to bring about their paintings to life.

Are you a 1st of 2nd gen South or East Asian woman struggling with anxiety, self doubt, identity struggles and relationships issues? Are you having trouble keeping up with the demands of work, school, family or social life and it feels like a constant balancing act? Do you have trouble being assertive and confident in your relationships? Are you going through a break up, life transition or just have trouble relating to your parents and family who have different expectations for you? Are you a new mom, expecting or navigating infertility challenges? Being a woman in today’s modern society is hard, but you don't have to be alone.

Daily responsibilities can be challenging enough. Adding in stress, worry, irritability, poor sleep, sadness, conflict, or low motivation can make them feel impossible sometimes. Each person comes with their own struggles, but also strength, a voice, and the need to feel safe. I am here to support you in your process of gaining clarity and insight, whether it relates to those daily struggles or depression or trauma, and reduce at least some of those barriers.

At times, unconscious patterns get in the way of being your best self. Work, school, relationships, health, family, addiction, or financial stressors affect your daily life. Maybe you need a confidant, coach, or ally, to help guide you through difficult times and manage day to day stress. I believe that by building increased insight and awareness into these patterns leads to emotional growth, emotional wellbeing and mental resilience.

Are you looking for a little help reducing conflict and creating more meaning and connection in your relationships? I am a down-to-earth, strengths-based provider who looks forward to establishing a therapeutic relationship with you. I work primarily with young professionals who are seeking growth oriented conversations, couples, moms in the perinatal period, and teens.

Parenthood is challenging and the road to becoming one can be equally so. Maybe you are pregnant or postpartum and wondering why this feels so hard. Perhaps you are parenting toddlers or older kids and asking yourself when it gets easier. Maybe you have experienced pregnancy or infant loss and are still grieving. You might be experiencing infertility and feeling hopeless. Maybe you're an immigrant and miss having your village of support. Whatever stage of this journey you are on, you might feel stuck, resentful and even blindsided by depression, anxiety or trauma.

The phrase "That's what Mom's do" has become the unwanted mantra that forces you to go, go, go. Good sleep, what's that, and it's hard to find the energy to keep going. Day after day, there’s a long to-do list that keeps you on the hamster wheel. Emotions have been all over the place, but you've been pushing through them every week. However, the pressure is building, and being overwhelmed and feeling alone makes it increasingly more difficult to keep up with everyday life and relationships when feeling this way. All you want to do is hide away and hope it doesn't all come crashing down.

Life is an incredibly beautiful journey, but it's not always easy. As a licensed professional and addiction counselor, my goal is to support you every step of the way and provide you with the support and guidance you deserve to reach your full potential. Even more, remind you that no matter what you may be facing, you have the innate power to overcome it.

So, you’ve waited this long to either start therapy or change to a therapist that’ll REALLY help. By the time you get to this point – you’re overdue. I get that. That’s why we keep openings for SAME day appointments, and evening & weekend slots. Although we don’t do emergency care – we understand that sometimes it’s best to talk through something soon. I specialize in treating fellow doctors, lawyers or high-net worth individuals who require a therapist that can match their intellect and caliber. I understand how big law, three-letter government agencies and academia works – so you won’t have to waste time getting me up to speed.

I work well with a client who has experienced some type of sexual, psychological, or religious or spiritual trauma in their lives. In my sessions with this client, first I assess the level of trauma, help the client to build rapport with me, as well as trust. Secondly, I work to rebuild the client's life in terms of symptom management. Thirdly, the client and I form a partnership to improve relationship skills, thereby enabling the client to re-establish a sense of community. Finally, I value helping the client to rebalance his or her life in mind, body, and spirit.

Welcome on your journey to wanting a healthier and more manageable life. Life stressors can interfere with relationships, academia, and your career. I hope to bring a warm and safe space so together, we can gain a better understanding on how to manage and resolve the issues that brought you in for treatment. w
