Hello, my name is Anmol! I’m a Licensed Mental Health Counselor offering a collaborative, warm, and culturally attuned approach to therapy—grounded in honesty, empathy, and real connection.
I specialize in relational work and help clients explore how identity, family dynamics, and early roles shape their current relationships and self-perception. Many of the individuals I work with are in the process of discovering who they are or discovering who they want to be—untangling patterns of perfectionism, caregiving, and cultural expectation along the way.

I earned my Master’s in Mental Health and Wellness Counseling from NYU, and a dual Bachelor’s in Psychology and Human Health from Emory University. My work integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Internal Family Systems (IFS), mindfulness, guided imagery, and somatic practices.

As a South Asian therapist raised in Miami, I bring a multicultural lens to the therapy space, particularly when working with South Asian, Caribbean, Latinx, East Asian, immigrant, and first-generation clients. I’m fluent in English, with working knowledge of Spanish and Hindi.

As a psychotherapist, my ultimate goal is to provide a safe and supportive environment for my clients to grow as a person and develop skills that will improve their overall quality of life. Therapy isn’t a one size fits all practice. Therefore, I believe in building good rapport with my clients to properly assess their needs in order to determine an individualized treatment plan.

I received my graduate degree, a Master's of Science in Education and Mental Health Counseling from Manhattan College. During my therapeutic internship, I worked at the College of Mount Saint Vincent’s Counseling Center, primarily working in the TRIO program. This program works closely with first-generation college students in order to provide additional academic, emotional and social support. I had the opportunity to engage a population whose cultures and backgrounds often stigmatize mental health. Therefore, it was a great passion of mine to inform the Counseling Center about the different cultural competency techniques and interventions I used that improved the effectiveness of counseling for this special client population.

My therapeutic work experience includes providing individual and group sessions to clients of varying backgrounds that are dealing with anxiety, depression, suicidal ideation, bi-polar disorder, mood disorders, substance abuse, loss & grief, self-esteem, family dynamic problems and stressors triggered by life changes and transitions. While my training is primarily in Psychodynamic Therapy, I bring a highly Strength-Based Intervention and Solution-Focused therapeutic modality to my work, along with some Cognitive Behavioral and Multicultural Therapy.

I’m dedicated to helping my clients on their journey to unpack and heal past wounds, improve their day-to-day functioning and create therapeutic goals to cultivate a better future. I look forward to working with you!

I offer therapy that is empathic, respectful, honest, and collaborative. My approach is evidence-based, drawing on methods that are proven to be effective and reliable, while always honoring you as an individual.

My practice takes into account the pervasive nature of trauma, and how it can interfere with your ability to cope with life’s challenges. We will work to carefully uncover the reasons behind any behaviors you wish to change, as well as how those behaviors may have served you throughout your life. Together, we will pay attention to your prior experiences, including family dynamics, while working on practical, realistic approaches to dealing with today.

I have found that people are more resilient than they think. I work to help you harness your strengths, find balance, and regain hope.
