Getting to know Ruchi Malhotra

Are you struggling with issues related to trauma, grief, stress, anxiety, or major life changes? Life can be overwhelming and sometimes exhausting; I can guide you through any obstacles you may face. My goal is to help you understand yourself on a deeper level and provide you with the skills and tools to live a healthy and balanced life. Sometimes seeking help from a professional is the best way to put things into perspective. I work with adults facing life challenges such as anxiety, depression, stress, grief, ADHD, major life changes, as well as relationship and career issues. I also specialize in women’s empowerment, mental health wellness, and parenting support. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Florida with more than 25 years of experience providing diverse clients with a wide range of therapeutic services. I hold a Master’s in Social Work from Maharaja Sayajirao University of Baroda. I practice a person-centered, strength-based, and person-driven approach to therapy, and I strongly believe that we all can “Achieve Wellness through Mindful Living.” I am fluent in four languages: English, Hindi, Punjabi, and Gujarati. I also have intensive experience in grief, anger management, coaching, compassion fatigue, caregiver issues and stress, guilt and shame, impulsivity, isolation/loneliness, life purpose, midlife crisis, multicultural concerns, postpartum depression, post-traumatic stress, self-love, women’s issues, workplace issues, commitment issues, communication problems, control issues, divorce and separation, family problems, first responder issues, and forgiveness. My clinical approaches include Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Mindfulness Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Narrative Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, and Trauma-Focused Therapy.

What should a new client know about working with you?

This session will help me understand your strengths, areas you need support with, and goals you want to work on. Together we will develop therapeutic goals and strategies to achieve them.

More information on payments and coverage

Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.
