Getting to know Chandra Potnuru

Hi there, I'm Chandra! Chandra Sekhar Potnuru, LMFT (known affectionately as Dominic) — welcome! I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist passionate about helping individuals, couples, and families navigate life and relationships. I hold a Master’s in Marriage and Family Therapy from Friends University, a Master’s in Counseling Psychology from Martin Luther Christian University, and a Bachelor’s from Bengaluru University. I’m also nearing completion of my doctorate in Marriage and Family Therapy, further enriching my expertise. As a systemic thinker and eclectic therapist, I believe every individual is unique, and so should their therapeutic journey be. My approach is personalized—I assess each client’s needs, personality, and goals to determine the best therapeutic modality. Whether fostering meaningful connections, addressing past traumas, or managing life transitions, I work collaboratively to craft a pathway toward healing, growth, and empowerment. I integrate evidence-based modalities, including systemic, relational, and holistic approaches, always guided by compassion and respect. My focus areas include relationship dynamics, family conflicts, anxiety, depression, trauma, and life transitions. I create a safe, nonjudgmental space where clients explore challenges and rediscover strengths. If you’re ready to take the first step toward meaningful change, I’d be honored to walk alongside you on your journey to wellness and self-discovery. My approach Rooted in a holistic and client-centered perspective, my therapy emphasizes collaboration, respect, and adaptability. Each individual, couple, or family brings a unique story and experiences, and therapy should honor those distinct needs. As a systemic thinker, I view challenges within the broader context of relationships, environments, and spiritual beliefs. My style is collaborative and adaptive, tailored to each individual.
