Getting to know Meena Islam

Hi, I’m Meena. I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a background in hospital-based care and a passion for helping people feel seen, safe, and supported—especially when life feels heavy or unclear. I work with adults navigating anxiety, relationship challenges, burnout, grief, or cultural identity questions. As a POC therapist, I understand how identity, faith, and culture shape our mental health. I care deeply about creating a space for individuals who have struggled to find culturally attuned support. Therapy with me is collaborative, non-judgmental, and often includes honest conversations, reflection, and even laughter along the way. I blend evidence-based approaches like CBT and mindfulness with curiosity and care. I believe in your capacity to grow, even when things feel stuck, and I’ll meet you wherever you are in the process. Outside of therapy, you’ll find me behind a camera, exploring nature, or at a coffee shop with my friends.

More information on payments and coverage

After scheduling your appointment through Zocdoc, you will receive a follow-up email from Tava with instructions to complete the necessary registration in our patient portal, including insurance and payment details. Placing a credit card on file is required to process insurance billing and any applicable deductible-related charges. Please complete your registration within 24 hours to ensure a smooth check-in and avoid delays in accessing care. If registration is not completed in time, we may not be able to verify your insurance coverage, which could result in unexpected out-of-pocket costs for your visit. Per our office policies, a fee may be charged for missed appointments or late cancellations.
