Aura of Hope Psychotherapy

At Aura of Hope Psychotherapy, we work with adults who feel stuck in patterns they’ve tried to change—whether that looks like anxiety, relationship struggles, family conflict, perfectionism, or feeling unsure of yourself. You might be navigating academic or career pressure, strained relationships, family dynamics, or questions around identity and self-worth. Many people we work with feel torn between external expectations and their own needs, or find themselves repeating the same cycles despite insight and effort. Our therapists take an integrative, client-centered approach. Sessions often focus on understanding emotions, patterns, and relationships, while also using practical cognitive and behavioral tools. When helpful, we incorporate parts-based and body-aware approaches to support deeper, lasting change. Therapy is always tailored to you—there is no one-size-fits-all treatment here. We work with students, young professionals, first-generation individuals, and adults balancing multiple roles and responsibilities. Whether you are new to therapy or returning after past experiences, our goal is to offer a space where you feel understood, respected, and supported at your own pace.

Verified patient
I’ve been working with Heyu for almost half a year, and I’m really grateful for the experience. When I first started therapy, I had a hard time understanding my own thoughts and emotions. She never told me what to think instead, she asked thoughtful questions and guided me to see things from different perspectives. Looking back, I can honestly say I’ve changed a lot. It wasn’t an overnight transformation, but a gradual one that happened without me even realizing it. I feel like I understand myself much better now and have developed a healthier mindset because of our sessions. Heyu is patient, thoughtful, and very professional. I’m truly thankful for her support, and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a therapist.

From the first session, Phyllis made me feel safe and put me at ease. Going through a distressing time and my head was left spinning, she made me feel truly understood, helped me understand my own feelings, and worked with me on my own unique healing journey. Always thoughtful and prompt, each session felt productive but especially because I always felt comfortable and she made the space feel like it was easy to connect in. I always look forward to our sessions and I cannot thank and recommend Phyllis enough!
Verified patient
Phyllis has a calm, compassionate presence and asks thoughtful questions that helped me gain clarity on feelings and patterns I hadn't fully recognized before. Rather than simply listening, she guided me in exploring my experiences with curiosity and without judgement, which made each session feel both safe and meaningful. I'm incredibly grateful for her support and the positive impact she's had on my personal growth. I would wholeheartedly recommend Phyllis to anyone looking for a therapist who is genuinely caring, insightful, and dedicated to helping her clients thrive.

Through her guidance, I developed a deeper understanding of myself and learned healthier ways to navigate life’s challenges. Her support has not only helped me through difficult moments but has also shaped the way I approach problems and view myself. I am incredibly grateful, and I cannot recommend her enough.

Shuang held a safe space for me to unpack my difficult emotions. I feel really heard and supported every session. She has helped me understand a lot more about myself which I really appreciate.
Verified patient
Shuang is a great listener. She's kind and very understanding, and she's good at teaching me practical tools instead of just talking things through.
Verified patient
She was very attentive and really listened to my needs, concerns, and stresses. I felt heard and understood throughout our sessions, and she created a comfortable and supportive environment where I felt like I could openly express myself.
Verified patient
Meeting with Shuang was such a refreshing experience. I've never had a provider who communicates so openly, and it made a real difference. She picks up on things I don't say out loud and knows when to nudge me forward versus when to just let me sit with something.
Verified patient
i have been seeing Shuang for a while now and have had a consistently good experience with her. she is warm and easy to talk to, and she creates a space where i never feel judged for anything i bring up. i'd recommend her to anyone looking for a therapist who's genuinely kind and takes you seriously.

Verified patient
I feel better after the first session. Yihan is very kind and truly listens to me. I’m looking forward to our future sessions
Verified patient
I've been seeing Yihan for a few sessions, and I genuinely feel that my mental health has been improving. As a former international student and now a young professional, I have faced struggles that can be difficult to explain or find the right audience for. I sometimes become stuck in obsessive thought patterns and hold certain values too rigidly, which can make me less happy. Because I had often felt judged in the past, I was nervous before my first session. However, Yihan quickly created a safe and nonjudgmental space and listened closely to my experiences. I tend to become philosophical when reflecting on my past, but Yihan is usually able to understand what I am trying to express. She also asks thoughtful questions that help me untangle my thoughts and find a way forward when I feel stuck. I really appreciate her empathy, openness, and insight, and I would highly recommend her.
Verified patient
Amazing provider! Really enjoyed working with Yihan, she's really genuine and patient. She's excellent at asking questions that help explore my emotions and where they came from. Definitely had a deeper understanding of myself and my experiences after talking with her!
Verified patient
Yihan is extremely patient. She listens and cares and is able to not only explain what is going on but also how I should deal with my issues. Thank you Yihan!
Verified patient
As a Japanese woman working in the U.S., I’ve often felt caught between very different expectations around work, communication, independence, and how much emotion you’re supposed to show. With Yuko, I don’t feel like I have to explain why certain things feel complicated. She understands the cultural context behind them, but she also helps me think about what I actually want for myself rather than simply following what is expected of me. Our sessions have helped me become more confident in setting boundaries, speaking up at work, and finding a way to live here without feeling like I have to choose between my Japanese identity and the life I’m building in the U.S.
Verified patient
Yuko is really experienced and very thorough with her approach. She's really patient and uses different ways to get you where you want to be. The coping skills that I have built over time have been invaluable; I will continue working with her. I highly recommend her.
Verified patient
Yuko has been incredibly supportive in helping me understand my relationship with alcohol and the emotions and patterns connected to it. I never feel judged or shamed in our sessions, which has made it much easier to be honest about things I usually have a hard time talking about. She helps me look beyond just the behavior itself and understand what I may be coping with underneath it. I really appreciate that she is compassionate while still helping me take accountability and think about healthier ways of managing stress and difficult emotions. I’ve felt more aware of my patterns and more confident in the changes I’m trying to make since working with her.
Verified patient
I’ve really appreciated working with Yuko. She makes it easy to talk honestly about things I’ve felt embarrassed or conflicted about, especially around substance use and the ways I cope when I’m stressed or overwhelmed. I never feel judged or lectured. She helps me slow things down, understand what is driving certain patterns, and think through changes in a way that actually feels realistic for me. I’ve become much more aware of myself through our sessions, and I feel like I’m making progress without feeling pressured to be perfect.
Verified patient
I highly recommend working with Yuko!

Right after my first session with Ameek, I was glad I choose her. Conversations with her are very calm and easy-flowing. I trusted her with everything I said and never felt pressured while in her company. Now I just feel at peace with myself. I’m amazed that those things I used to worry about for most of the day, every day, barely even cross my mind now. I Highly recommend her.
Verified patient
My session with Ameek came to happen at a very scathing time in my life, and I am happy to say they've been truely helpful. Her open minded and accepting manner made hard topics easier to address head on, which I really needed and appreciated. Her calm, steady, unbiased style made me examine my life thoroughly and gain alot of confidence and peace of mind. I am truly grateful for her support and insight.
Verified patient

Her incredible guidance helped me in navigating my challeging transitions in both personal and professional life. She made me feel heard, safe and empowered to work through my concerns. The positive impact Ameek has had on my journey is truely phenomenal. She listens actively with compassion yet providing with incisive feedbacks which makes a profound difference. Highly recommended for anyone seeking meaningful support.
Verified patient
Ameek is a remarkable therapist. From the very begining, she created a safe and welcoming environment. In the very first session, I felt heard, valued and completely safe in a warm, non-judgmental space. Her way is very balanced filled with compassion where I felt at ease discussing thoughts and feelings that I had previously struggled to talk about, yet direct when you need a calm push to see things differently. She helped me develop invalubale skills to better manage my emotions which significantly improved my life. Time with her felt more like a partnership which made me gain so much self-awareness and emtional control. Her guidance has helped me navigate through difficult life transitions with confidence and clarity. I am truely grateful for all her support and life-changing insights.

When I first met Savitha, I wondered if someone much younger than me would really understand my experiences. But she quickly changed my perspective. She is patient, respectful, and much more mature than I expected. I appreciate how willing she is to understand things outside her own experience and how she gently challenges my thinking without ever making me feel judged. After a few sessions, I felt comfortable opening up and sharing things I had kept to myself. I’m really happy I gave myself the chance to work with her.
Verified patient
I wasn’t sure what to expect from my first visit, but I ended up feeling very comfortable with Savitha. The conversation felt natural, and I never felt like I was being analyzed or told what I should do. She has a way of asking questions that makes you stop and think without feeling pressured. I came in with a lot on my mind and wasn’t sure how to make sense of everything. Talking with her helped me see things from a different perspective and understand my feelings better. She is thoughtful, professional, and genuinely easy to talk to. I would definitely choose to see her again.
Verified patient
What I value most about working with her is how open she is to hearing about things that may not always be considered “normal” by society. I’ve shared personal experiences related to my culture and the way I grew up, and she never gave me a weird reaction or made me feel like something was wrong with me. She takes the time to understand where I’m coming from instead of comparing my experiences to her own ideas. I’ve also been able to bring up sensitive topics and share perspectives that I might not always discuss with others. I really value having a therapist who respects different ways of thinking and never makes me feel like I need to fit into what society considers normal.
Verified patient
What stood out to me most was how comfortable and secure I felt throughout the session. She gave me the space to talk at my own pace and share things I normally find difficult to express. I appreciated that the conversation felt private, respectful, and completely free of judgment. By the end of the session, I felt a sense of relief that I hadn’t realized I needed. It felt good to finally let some of those thoughts out instead of continuing to carry them on my own. I also came away feeling confident that if I’m struggling again, I have someone I can talk to openly and honestly. It was a genuinely reassuring experience, and I’m very thankful for the space she created for me.
Verified patient
From my first conversation, I noticed something different about the way she approaches therapy. She has a thoughtful way of helping you slow down, notice patterns, and look at situations from angles you may not have considered before. Her questions encouraged me to think more deeply rather than simply search for quick answers. I walked away with new insights about myself and a clearer idea of what I want to work toward. The experience felt meaningful and productive, and I can already see how the things I learned can translate into my everyday life.
Verified patient
I honestly never had a therapist like Savitha before. She made me feel really comfortable from the beginning, and I felt like I could just be myself and talk openly without being judged. She genuinely listened and made me feel understood instead of just giving me advice. I really appreciated how calm, kind, and easy to talk to she was. I left the session feeling much better and lighter. I’m truly grateful for the space she created for me, and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a therapist who genuinely cares.
