I’ve been so pleased with Sdhari and the assistance she has provided me during our sessions. She instantly conveys a genuine warmth, concern and interest in the subject. Even more so, she is realistic and practical in her theoretical approaches. I appreciate her active and effective listening, the specific guidance and tools, and even the self-awareness she helped me to realize. Building a rapport with her was not at all as difficult as I would have expected it to be in therapy. Her years of experience, education and expertise speak for themselves in her effectiveness. I look forward to working with Sdhari in the future.

- LCSW
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I am also a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional and a member of the International Association of Trauma Professionals. I have completed additional training in DBT, Trauma Competency, Mindfulness and Financial Social Work. I truly believe that with hard work, patience and support recovery and wellness is attainable for everyone. My goal as a clinician is to support individuals in the developing and/or strengthening of their talents, coping skills and abilities to overcome mental health, emotional and/or substance abuse challenges.
My counseling style is warm and interactive. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I don't believe in stigmatizing labels. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, mindfulness and I use a strengths perspective. I will tailor our interaction and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.
It takes courage to seek help and support to attain a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards change. If you are ready to take that step I am here to support and empower you.
I look forward to working with you!

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

As a nurse living through COVID in the hospital, I felt my mental health suffering and reached out for help. I am so grateful I found Sdhari. She has helped me learn to live with the stress at work while refreshing my perspective at times and prioritizing self-care. It is very helpful to have my weekly meetings with her and talk about whatever is challenging me. She is very good at listening and offering ideas that keep me balanced and healthy. I can’t imagine getting through this past year without her professional guidance. Sdhari is an outstanding clinician.
Sdhari is a knowledgeable, compassionate and effective counselor. I have learned a lot about myself, how to adjust my perspectives, and skills to help me better manage situations of concern with Sdhari’s help. I am a nurse, and I am so grateful to have had her as a resource during these past six months. She has been key to my maintenance of mental health and prioritizing self-care during this pandemic.
Sdhari is amazing. An awesome listener with simple and easy to follow guidance.
Down to earth. Laid back but very knowledgeable. Easy to talk to and helpful.
She rocks!
