Karthik Gunnia, PsyD

I am a clinical psychologist who is a therapist in private practice and a professor at NYU. I specialize in cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, which differs from other traditional psychotherapies in that it is more structured, goal-directed, and skills based. CBT has been shown consistently in research to be highly effective in helping individuals manage stress, improve mood, and achieve greater personal success. I also have training in integrating meditation and mindfulness into therapy, as more and more studies are being published to confirm the benefits of these types of practices. On a larger scale, I am passionate about destigmatizing mental health difficulties and demystifying the process of accessing and receiving mental health treatment.
