Getting to know Sana Patel
Hi! I'm Sana, a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor with a MEd in Mental Health Counseling from Columbia University. I provide a supportive and warm space to express your thoughts and feelings in an authentic manner. I have experience working with diverse populations in challenging maladaptive thoughts and beliefs. I am CBT-informed and Trauma-informed.
My approach
My approach is compassionate, non-judgmental, encouraging, and authentic. I provide an eclectic therapeutic experience that includes CBT, Reality Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Psychoanalysis. In a session with me, you will find validation and complete acceptance where I individualize clinical interventions to meet you where you are in your journey.
My focus
I work with clients to treat their depression and anxiety in order to develop self-love, gain insight, and find balance in their lives. A client working with me is looking for independence and balance in their relationship with themselves and others. I encourage clients to prioritize finding their inner peace. I align myself with clients to find coping skills and thought patterns that allow for grounding and growth.
My communication style
Working with me, you will find a compassionate, supportive, and genuine therapist. I utilize validation and clarification to ensure that you feel heard and understood. I also use humor and personality in sessions to guide interventions and connect with clients.
