Getting to know Gitanjali Sawhney

I am a licensed mental health counselor with expertise in addressing trauma, depression, OCD, anxiety-related disorders, self-esteem issues, life transitions, and the complexities of spirituality and religion. I earned my Master's in Mental Health Counseling from New York University. I also hold an MBA in Global Management and Strategy from Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey, and my undergraduate degree in Business Administration with a minor in Sociology, Law, and Society is from Skidmore College. As an immigrant and someone who previously worked in finance and accounting, I understand the importance of good communication, forging stable relationships, and creating boundaries. Through my practice, I engage with individuals from diverse backgrounds, harnessing the power of a patient-centered approach and therapeutic alliance to facilitate holistic healing and growth. My focus areas include anxiety, panic disorder, trauma, depression, self-esteem issues, OCD, and related mental health concerns. I am committed to creating a safe and transformative therapeutic experience for each client, including those from diverse backgrounds, the LGBTQ+ community, and other marginalized groups. My inclusive and empathetic approach aims to provide a supportive space for anyone on their mental health journey.
