Seema Patel

(she/her)

Masters Level Clinician, MS
*I also speak Gujarati and Hindi

I seek to destigmatize mental healthcare for all populations and provide a safe space where my clients feel seen and heard to navigate their relationships with themselves and others. As a South Asian American and daughter of immigrants, I have first hand experience of the deep effects that family of origin and cultural conflicts have on your lived experiences. I provide support for my clients in being their authentic selves and help them develop the skills they need to thrive. I want my clients to have an empathetic space to explore their challenges, process their thoughts and emotions, and experience healing.

I work with individuals ages 16+ from all different backgrounds who are seeking healing from trauma, relationship conflict, family of origin issues, life transitions, cultural identity, anxiety, depression, and other difficult life experiences. I have a passion for serving the LGBTQ+ and BIPOC communities. 

I use an integrative, multicultural, trauma-informed approach that is mainly based on, but not exclusive to, person-centered, cognitive behavioral, and somatic techniques. I am also trained in Brainspotting which treats trauma and other issues. Every person is different, so I aim to employ different techniques that fit each of my clients best!
