Getting to know Amrantha Kalra

Hi there! I'm Amrantha Kalra. I am a bilingual psychotherapist and supervisor with 9+ years of experience in the mental health field. I hold a Master's in Mental Health Counseling from New York University and a Bachelor's degree from the University at Buffalo. Therapy to me is freedom. It is the medium by which people untangle and unstuck themselves so they can learn to live authentically. Everyone is capable of healing; sometimes you just need some help getting there. I believe in building a supportive environment while also challenging my clients' negative beliefs. Therapy is a collaborative process, and we will work together to bring you to a place where you feel safe, secure, and empowered.

What should a new client know about working with you?

Having lived and worked in India, Singapore and New York, I am intimately familiar with the challenges of adjustment issues, immigration stress, resettling in a new environment and straddling two cultures simultaneously. Since completing my graduation from New York University, I have had the chance to work in a private practice setting with New Yorkers from all fields and diverse ethnic backgrounds. In our sessions together you can expect to explore your past, discuss your future goals and recognize how the two are impacting you now, in your present. We will explore your relationships with those around you and yourself. In doing so we will co-create a plan to help shift your story and equip you with the tools you need to feel unstuck.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

We will utilize somatic and parts work to help us connect to experiences or emotions living in your body. We can lean on creative tools in addition to talk therapy to help you express yourself, such as writing, art, psychodrama, movement and breath work. I am well versed in Psychodynamic, Narrative, Interpersonal, CBT, IFS and EFT approaches. I will help guide you, challenge you and when necessary, hold you accountable. Together we will build new insights, dive into the unconscious processes that are coloring your behavior and build practical tools to apply to your life.
