Ashana Badlani
Founder, LMHC-D
As the founder of ANB Therapy, I take a holistic and culturally attuned approach to mental health, with a focus on supporting South Asian and Asian clients. My Indian heritage, upbringing in Dubai, and training in New York—where I earned my Master’s in Mental Health Counseling from Columbia University—deeply shape how I practice. I specialize in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and integrate somatic practices, mindfulness, and breathwork to strengthen the mind-body connection. As a certified Integrative Trauma Practitioner and Level One Gottman-trained therapist, I help individuals and couples build resilience, process trauma, and foster deeper self-awareness and growth.My approach is centered on creating a safe, inclusive space for healing, mindfulness, and personal growth, where clients can explore their mental health in the context of their unique backgrounds.

I work with people facing challenges like anxiety, depression, self-esteem issues, career stress, and day-to-day struggles. Together, we’ll build coping skills, find healthier ways to manage tough moments, and create a path toward your goals. I bring experience in substance use and severe mental illness, and I welcome clients from diverse backgrounds, cultures, and identities in a safe, compassionate space.

Karina Gopeesingh
LMHC
Speaking with someone can ease the feeling of being alone and provide the support you need to develop coping skills and move toward the life you want. As a first-generation Indo-Caribbean woman, I understand both the joys and challenges of a multicultural identity, including the stigma often surrounding mental health. This background inspires my work with individuals experiencing stress, anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, cultural identity struggles, and relationship difficulties. Using a person-centered approach, I create a safe, validating, and empowering space for you to explore and connect with your true self.

Sohaib Javed
LMHC-D
Everyone carries a unique sense of self shaped by lived experiences. As an immigrant from South Asia, I understand the stigma that often surrounds therapy and the difficulty of expressing needs without fear of judgment. My approach is client-centered and collaborative, integrating evidence-based interventions to provide the highest quality of care. I hold an MA in Mental Health Counseling from CUNY Baruch College and have experience supporting individuals navigating depression, anxiety, trauma, bipolar disorder, substance use, grief, schizophrenia, sexual and gender identity exploration, and career counseling.

Aaksha Shah
MHC-LP
As an eclectic and holistic approach therapist, I believe that true healing arises when the mind, body, and spirit work in harmony. My approach is deeply rooted in the understanding that every individual is unique, and their journey toward wellness is as distinctive as they are. My goal is to foster a safe, non-judgmental, and compassionate environment where clients feel supported and empowered to explore their emotions, challenges, and life experiences. Whether you're seeking to manage anxiety, explore self-discovery, or simply improve your overall mental and emotional health, I firmly believe therapy can do wonders for all.

Nupur Vaghasia
MHC-LP
If you are feeling disconnected from your own needs or unsure how to listen to your voice, even while continuing to show up for others, therapy can be a space to slow down and reconnect with yourself. I work with individuals who are questioning inherited roles and expectations, struggling to understand what they want beyond that pressure, or those who silently carry self-doubt, guilt, or a quiet sense of being “too much” or “not enough.”
In our work together, I offer a warm, collaborative, and culturally responsive space where we explore emotional patterns and coping strategies that may have once helped you feel safe or connected, but no longer feel aligned with who you are becoming. My approach is trauma-informed and emotionally attuned, focused on helping you reconnect with your needs, clarify your values, and move toward a life that feels more authentic, grounded, and sustainable.
