New to Grow
Hello! I’m Priya, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in New Jersey with over a decade of experience supporting adults through overwhelming transitions. I am truly honored to walk alongside you on this journey. I specialize in working with anxiety, perinatal and postpartum mental health, infertility, and the emotional complexities of parenting. As a parent myself, I can empathize! If you’re feeling stretched thin, uncertain, or not like yourself, you’re not alone—and you don’t have to figure it out on your own. I offer a space where you can slow down, process, and feel supported.
In our first session, I hope to learn more about you. In our first session, I will have some gentle questions to ask to learn more about your history, strengths, goals, and what led to you reach out at this time. I aim to create a warm and collaborative space, where you can take your time to share what feels comfortable. The first session is also a chance to get to know each other and for you to assess if I am a good fit to support you on this journey!
I use a strengths based approach to help clients better understand their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. I draw from evidence-based practices such as CBT, DBT, and much more. I have completed trainings specifically to support clients with perinatal mental health, postpartum, and navigating their fertility journey through Postpartum International. My approach to therapy is warm, empathetic, collaborative, and grounded in creating a space where clients feel supported. I truly believe in the power of empathy. I actually named my practice, Embraced with Empathy Therapy! I believe that each person’s journey is unique and I tailor my work to meet clients where they are.
I have experience working with adults ages 18+. Specifically, I have experience supporting individuals with perinatal mental health, postpartum, navigating their fertility/infertility journey, and exploring all things parenting. It truly has been an honor to witness the strength and resilience of each client I have worked with. I have worked with clients who are trying to conceive, individuals who have experienced miscarriages or loss, first time parents who are learning more about themselves in this new role, parents who are feeling burnt out and feeling overwhelmed, and so much more. My approach to therapy is warm and collaborative, where I seek your feedback on what is working or not working to ensure I can be the best resource/support to you.
I use a strengths based approach in my work, which includes helping you identify or discover your own internal resources that will help you with your goals!
CBT is a commonly used approach that helps you explore the connection between your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. They all go hand in hand when processing and working through goals.
DBT is another approach that can offer hands on skills that you can use in your every day life to help manage symptoms or stressors. DBT helps you create your own toolkit!
Learning more about your culture, beliefs, and values is important to our work. There may be parts that resonate with us or parts that we struggle with. In session, this is a space we can explore these layers together.
