Hey there! I'm Nandi, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in South Florida. I'm all about making life better for teens and young adults through empathetic and culturally relevant mental health care. With a career spanning 6 years in the field of mental health I began as an intake specialist, where I first recognized the immense need for personalized, empathetic support in this critical phase of life. Over the years, I've evolved from case management to life coaching, and now I primarily focus on clinical work, providing therapeutic interventions to empower young minds. My goal? To make sure that mental health care is not just easy to get but also speaks to everyone’s unique experiences and background. I believe that tailored support is the key to lasting growth. Let's work together to create a brighter, mentally healthier future for the next generation. You're not alone on this journey!

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

In our first session, I want to make sure you feel comfortable and at ease. It’s a chance for us to get to know each other—I'll learn about your goals and what’s on your mind, and you'll get a sense of my style and how I work. This is also your time to see if my vibe feels like a good fit for you. We’ll talk about what you’re hoping to achieve and figure out the best way to move forward together. My goal is for you to leave feeling that we’re on the same page and ready to dive into the work ahead.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

One of the things I’m really proud of as a clinician is my ability to connect with people on a deep level. I’m naturally empathetic, which means I genuinely understand and relate to what you’re going through. I also find it easy to build a strong rapport quickly, so you’ll hopefully feel at ease and comfortable with me from the get-go. I focus on your immediate needs to make sure our sessions are as helpful and relevant as possible. My goal is to create a supportive space where you feel heard and understood, right from the start.

My treatment methods

Trauma Informed Care

As a therapist specializing in trauma-informed care, I bring a deep understanding of how past experiences shape present behaviors and emotions. My approach prioritizes safety, trust, and empowerment, ensuring that every client feels respected and supported throughout their healing journey. By integrating trauma-sensitive techniques and maintaining a compassionate, non-judgmental space, I help individuals navigate their unique paths to recovery, fostering resilience and growth in a therapeutic environment tailored to their needs.

Solution Focused Brief Treatment

n my work with solution-based therapy, I love helping people find practical ways to tackle their challenges. We focus on what’s already working well in your life and build on those strengths to solve problems and reach your goals. It’s all about working together to find real, actionable steps that make a difference. My aim is to support and empower you as we discover the best ways to move forward, turning obstacles into opportunities for growth.
