Getting to know Gayathri Chandran

Hi there, I'm Gayathri! I’m a therapist with extensive experience helping clients navigate anxiety, depression, intergenerational trauma, relationship concerns, and questions of cultural and racial identity. I’ve worked in private practice, community health centers, and medical centers, giving me robust experience supporting a diverse clientele. My focus While I enjoy and have experience working with all client cohorts, I can best support you if you are struggling with relationship issues, anxiety, depression, OCD, cultural identity or long standing trauma. My hope is to offer you feel understood, less lonely and hopeful. My approach My approach is highly collaborative. I draw from CBT, psychodynamic and narrative therapy, and exposure-based interventions, to help clients understand longstanding patterns while building practical tools for daily life and short term relief. My communication style I believe therapy works best as a two-way conversation. I welcome and value clients' expression of their feelings and feedback. I am here to listen closely, provide honest input, making sure you feel emotionally safe and never judged for speaking your truth. My journey to mental healthcare I grew up with a front row seat to mental health issues being undermined and ignored in communities like mine, which propelled me into a career in healthcare. That passion has taken me through multiple settings where I have focused on building programs and providing direct patient care to ensure that clients feel seen, heard and never alone. My goals for you Therapy is a partnership and goals will be set collaboratively with you and not for you. I like to set concrete short term goals as well as longer term ones, to provide some relief and answers, even as you work on deeper patterns. We will do regular do check ins and adjust goals as needed so our work remains relevant and addresses your concerns.
