HOLISTIC THERAPY WITH RISHA

My client-centered approach to therapy allows for unique and personalized care in order to best support each person where they’re at. I prioritize a strong therapeutic relationship and collaboration with my clients, using a variety of modalities and a more eclectic approach. Individualized care allows for not only symptom management, but also for a whole-person and well-being focused support.

In my experience working with singles and couples, one of the biggest issues I’ve seen is their lack of authenticity and truth speaking in dating and relationships of all kinds. This lack of self-expression is most often rooted in fear of rejection, judgment, or heartbreak. I help clients not only become more conscious of their patterns and behavior in all of their relationships, but I also empower them to feel their feelings, connect with what they really want, and improve their most important relationship: the one they have with themselves.

Once clients recognize their beliefs and negative inner dialogue, they can begin transforming it into one that is more confident and supportive. And from there, they can bring their true, unfiltered selves to their relationships (and into the world), and find joy and fulfillment in those connections—whether that’s with friends, family, or romantic partners.

PROFESSIONAL BIO

For over a decade, I have been a practicing therapist who combines my knowledge as a certified health coach and psychotherapist to awaken clients to their barriers to happiness in life, and great connection in all of their relationships. I have been listed on Psychology Today, Zencare, featured on various remote coaching websites, and have guided the inner transformations of hundreds of individuals in New York City and across the United States. I received my Master’s in Social Work from New York University, my health coaching certification from the Institute for Integrative Nutrition, as well as many other various trainings and classes in life coaching, relationships/couples therapy, health and wellness, and more! My approach is all about variety. Rather than subscribing to one particular modality, I pull from many: Gottman, PACT, CBT + DBT, NLP, positive psychology, EFT, ACT, attachment theory, mindfulness, polyvagal theory and many more! I am licensed in NY, CT, CA for therapy sessions and can provide coaching worldwide.
