We had a wonderful rapport. I could talk about things I had never spoken about to anyone else and didn't feel judged.
I worked with Dr. Kumar for about five months. She got me through a really tough time period. I felt like she really cared, and really listened to me. I left counseling with more insight and skills on how to handle my stress.

FAQS Are you seeing people in-person at your office? I'm offering sessions via a secure video/telehealth platform to minimize exposure that may come up for us via travel and being in person. What is your rate? I charge $250 per session. At this time, my reduced fee slots are full. Are you on insurance panels? I am not on any insurance panels, which means you pay me directly for services. If you wish to use your out-of-network benefits, I can provide you with documentation that you submit to your insurance for reimbursement. ------ I’m a New York State licensed psychologist with a private practice in NoMad/Herald Square where I offer individual counseling to adults. I received my PhD in Counseling Psychology from the University at Albany-SUNY. I also conducted research on counselor training, and taught graduate-level mental health courses on counseling theory and practice. I specialize in helping people address anxiety, depression, burnout, self-esteem, and concerns about social connection. I take an integrated approach to therapy, where I balance insight-oriented work, psychoeducation, and skill-building to help you meet your goals. I prioritize creating an environment where you can feel safe and comfortable to explore your concerns. I see therapy as a collaborative process where make use of your strengths and identify possible patterns that might be getting in the way of your growth. Due to my training in multicultural, feminist, and LGBQ affirmative work, I make space for the ways in which gender norms, family or cultural expectations, and race-related experiences may impact everyday experiences and mental health. Feel free to contact me with any questions you may have. I look forward to helping you achieve your goals.

I first starting seeing Snehal because I was struggling with anxiety and depression. I’m a child of immigrants and had to grow up with different messages on how to be and no messages about mental health. Snehal was so helpful, and created space so I could reconnect with myself and my feelings. I understand my anxiety and depression so much more and have been able to take steps in other parts of my life. I’d highly recommend her.
