Pooja Khariwal, PsyD

"Every individual has a unique internal world. Our struggles and “stuckness” are complicated and layered. If you feel stuck and are yearning to be “unstuck,” we can work together! Being stuck can present as lack of meaning, feeling disconnected from yourself, having unfulfilling or unsatisfying relationships, challenges with transitions, deep dilemmas, mood troubles, and constant worry among many others.

I use an integrative approach with psychodynamic, interpersonal, cognitive behavioral, and process oriented elements along with the critical impact of culture and diversity to understand your complex and unique world. In this approach, many of our difficulties can be seen as unhealthy ways of understanding ourselves and others. These patterns of understanding were probably helpful in the past but have stopped being helpful. We will have the amazing opportunity to identity these patterns and transform them in psychotherapy! With your permission, we will explore the unfamiliar and distressing to make them familiar and less distressing. "
