Seeni Chandran
Some of the most meaningful moments in my work have come from patients who carried their struggles alone for far too long — people who finally decided, on their own terms, that something needed to change. As a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC), I work with young adults to older adults from a wide variety of backgrounds, life experiences, beliefs, and identities who may be navigating depression, anxiety, stress, relationship issues, and trauma.
What you bring to our work together matters deeply to me. Together, we'll work on treatment aimed toward measurable and meaningful growth rather than simply managing symptoms. My approach is rooted in respect, honest partnership, and the belief that treatment works best when it's something you've chosen for yourself.
Whatever brings you here, my hope is to help you grow into a version of yourself you may not have realized you could be. Drawing on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Mindfulness-based stress management techniques, I help you address the immediate obstacles you're facing, while using a psychodynamic approach to work through the deeper roots of core issues that may stem from key past experiences. I approach every session with curiosity, compassion, and open-mindedness, so you are empowered to achieve this healing in an environment where you feel safe and free to express yourself without fear of judgment. You can also expect to work with a therapist who understands what it means to be human, which is to be imperfect regardless of skillset or background.
Mental health struggles aren't abstract to me, as I've faced my own. Guided by great therapists and mentors, those experiences taught me that warmth and acceptance aren't just values; they're clinical necessities. All patients, regardless of background, who are ready to do the work are welcome here.
Music has always been an important part of my life. I play guitar and bass, write songs, and sing. In my free time, I enjoy gaming, staying creative, and spending time with family and friends.
