Hi there! My name is Shivani and I am a Masters Level Clinician, working toward licensure as an Associate Professional Counselor in Georgia. I earned my bachelor’s in Psychology from the University of Georgia and my Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Mercer University.

Growing up in the Indian community, I experienced the stigma surrounding mental health and the lack of support available. I am committed to breaking these barriers and providing compassionate care to people of all backgrounds and cultures.

I have experience working with children, adolescents, and adults in both individual and group therapy. I spent 5 years as a nanny, which gave me a deep appreciation for childhood development and their emotional well-being.

My approach to therapy is warm, collaborative, and strengths-based. I use techniques from Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Play Therapy, Art Therapy and Person-Centered. I believe that everyone has the power within themselves to become the best version of themselves, but sometimes they get stuck. My goal is to empower individuals to grow, make positive changes, and embrace those changes with confidence by utilizing their strengths.

Favorite Pastimes: Traveling, hiking, picnics, crafting, baking, attending concerts, quality time with my family and friends
