Getting to know Khavita Persaud

"IMPORTANT: Thriveworks cannot provide services to clients with Medicaid coverage. If you have Medicaid, please contact your plan directly to find an in-network provider. For all other insurance plans, Thriveworks will verify your benefits after you book through Zocdoc. If verification isn't completed before your visit, you'll be charged our self-pay rate of $200 for that session. AFTER YOU BOOK: Complete these steps to avoid cancellation or being switched to self-pay. 1. Check your email for instructions to set up your Thriveworks account. Within your Thriveworks’ account, sign consent forms and add a valid credit card, which will be automatically charged for copays, fees, post-insurance balances, and self-pay amounts. 2. If using insurance, upload clear photos of the front and back of your insurance card. 3. Expect a confirmation call from our team to verify your information and answer questions. CANCELLATION POLICY: Provide 48 hours advance notice to avoid the $135 late cancellation fee. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with over 7 years of experience providing therapy to adolescents, adults, and families. I specialize in anxiety, depression, trauma, abuse, mood disorders, eating disorders, and major life transitions. I have a strong focus on working with underserved populations and minority communities, supporting clients navigating identity development, cultural stressors, and systemic challenges. My work emphasizes culturally responsive, trauma-informed care in a safe and supportive environment. I integrate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Internal Family Systems (IFS), and Trauma-Informed Care, along with psychodynamic and attachment-based approaches. I help clients understand the root causes of emotional patterns, heal from trauma, and improve relationships through deeper insight and practical coping skills.
