Hi there! I’m Muskan, a therapist-in-training passionate about supporting individuals through life’s challenges. I know that transitions throughout adulthood and seeking change or understanding within oneself can feel overwhelming, and my goal is to be a supportive, nonjudgmental resource as you navigate your mental health journey. Whether you're dealing with anxiety, depression, self-esteem issues, relationship struggles, or the stress of figuring out who you are, I’m here to listen and help you work through it all. I believe in the power of therapy to help you gain clarity, develop coping skills, and build confidence as you face life’s ups and downs. I use a mix of approaches, based on a foundation of cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) and mindfulness techniques, to help you find what works best for you. My goal is to empower you to understand yourself better, feel more in control, and develop healthier ways to manage stress and relationships. I am in my last year of my MSW program at East Texas A&M University, where my focus is mental health service provision to individuals and families. When I’m not in session, you can find me in a yoga studio, reading, or spending time with my friends and family. I’m excited to be here and look forward to working together as you explore your strengths, discover new insights, and move forward with more confidence. Thank you for considering me, and congratulations on beginning your therapy journey! Muskan Hussain is a therapist-in-training at Sol Health.

As a Creative Arts Psychotherapist and Drama Therapist, I interweave creative expressive techniques along with traditional talk therapy to support you in releasing old patterns and habits, identify places you feel stuck, and move towards a place of self acceptance, healing, and growth. My role as therapist includes being a guide and support on your unique journey, utilizing both creative expression and talk therapy depending on your needs and level of comfort. I believe that real change happens when we connect mind and body, allowing us to explore places that hold us back, and reconnect with ourselves to live a more full and joyful life. I work primarily with adolescents and young adults with anxiety, depression, stress, trauma, self esteem issues, and learning differences.
I engage with clients relationally to understand how unconscious dynamics impede connection and growth. I work with both individuals and couples seeking to understand their attachment styles, communication patterns, and family dynamics and have specialized experience in working with psychosis, sexual trauma, grief, and aging issues
Are you having trouble managing day-to-day worries and fears? Do you struggle with imposter syndrome in a world where everything is social media perfect? Do you struggle with people-pleasing? Finding yourself saying yes when you would rather say no? This can create anxiety and dissatisfaction in our lives and relationships and can leave us feeling resentful and unfulfilled. We’ll work together to dig deep, identify your challenges and create solutions to effectively manage the difficult situations you find yourself in over and over again. We’ll develop a plan to shift old patterns and behaviors that are keeping you from living your best life. My goal is for you to live more authentically with a greater sense of understanding and connection to yourself and others. I offer guidance and support in developing self-awareness and building effective coping skills to break free from anxiety and stress while accessing one’s own inner resilience, strength, and wisdom. If you are ready to find a new sense of confidence and meaning in your life, I’m here to help you get there.
As a first-generation college grad, I get the pressure and anxiety that come with starting college. The excitement of this big step can often mix with imposter syndrome as you navigate classes, friendships, and “adulting.” You don’t have to do it alone! I’m here to help you build confidence, develop healthy coping skills, and manage life’s stressors.

My purpose is to ultimately help my clients achieve the goals they wish to accomplish. I offer a safe, empathetic and a warm environment. I use interventions that offer not only symptom relief, but also a means to improve emotional connections to the individual and others. I have experience in treating LGBTQIA populations, depression, sexual challenges, anxiety disorders, trauma, bipolar disorder, substance use disorders, chronic pain, chronic illness, disabilities, and disease. As a dedicated psychotherapist, certified substance abuse counselor, and certified sex and couple’s therapist, I use holistic approaches where I treat the whole person and not just the symptoms. Clients who are in non-monogamous, swingers, polyamorous, and/or kink relationships are welcomed.
I am a bicultural therapist who is passionate about supporting individuals through life’s most challenging moments. My approach is warm, collaborative, and client-centered—I believe that each person’s story is unique, and I tailor our work together using a blend of evidence-based modalities such as psychodynamic therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and mindfulness-based practices. I specialize in working with caregivers, individuals managing chronic illness, and first-generation students and immigrant families. I am an LGBTQI+ affirming, anti-racist/anti-oppressive, body-positive therapist. Throughout the therapy journey, I am committed to walking alongside my clients, providing steady support as they explore their emotions, make meaningful changes, and build resilience. I view therapy as a collaborative process, where we work together to identify goals and strategies that align with each individual’s values, strengths, and needs.
I specialize in supporting young adults, professionals, and couples who experience challenges with relationships, anxiety, self-esteem, and chronic illness.

Imagine a world where you don’t lie in bed for hours replaying every situation in your head staying up way too late and ruining the next day. Instead, you fall asleep peacefully and can make major decisions without it fully consuming your night, sleep and over all day to day. Inside, there’s a voice that questions your worth, filling you with doubt—but you're ready to rise above it. You're tired of holding back, and deep down, you know you're meant for more—more confidence, more peace, and deeper, more fulfilling connections. I get it! I create a space in which you will feel relaxed while also allowing for you to feel understood. I will not just sit and nod, I will ask you questions, guide you and challenge you. I enjoy blending CBT and psychodynamic perspectives to ensure the most meaningful healing process. You deserve someone who is competent and caring. Let's connect!
Hi my name is Kimberlin and i am a licensed therapist in NY. My passion lies in supporting clients to build confidence and self-esteem, foster a positive body-image, navigate dating and break ups, work with couples through all stages of their relationship, ease anxieties through developing coping skills, uncover individual strengths, and nurture the relationship one has with themselves.
Sometimes we may feel that we're supposed to have all the answers to the challenges life throws our way, even when that isn’t always possible. An achievement focus can come at the expense of other areas of our lives. I see therapy as a collaborative experience. I work both on-on-one and with couples to help unlock what holds them back to gain an understanding of how our histories shape our present, while building a foundation of skills in the here-in-now to promote healing and a future that is self-defined. My approach is solution-focused and uses elements of Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Psychodynamic Therapy to identify and build on your strengths. As a Substance Abuse Specialist, I also help individuals transform their relationships with substances and behaviors that feel out of control. Therapy should be a process that makes us feel free to be fully ourselves. To heal and enliven us to be authentically, beautifully, and powerfully exactly who we are, unbound by what has in the past, held us back. Let's work together to find strength, meaning, healing, and freedom so you can define your own path. It's time to be free and come alive again, let's do it together. Contact me today for a free, 30 minute video or phone consultation to see if we are a good fit to work together.
I specialize in providing queer-affirming therapy to adults who are experiencing difficulties navigating identity issues, burnout, stress, and stigma.

As a compassionate therapist with a Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from LIU Post, I provide a safe, supportive space for clients to explore their thoughts and emotions. Fluent in English and Spanish, I welcome individuals from all backgrounds, ensuring they feel seen and understood. With a background in athletics, I understand the mental and emotional challenges of performance pressure, teamwork, and personal setbacks. I blend evidence-based techniques like CBT with a down-to-earth, nonjudgmental approach, helping clients gain clarity, confidence, and the tools to navigate life’s challenges. Therapy with me is a balance of depth and lightness—you’ll feel comfortable addressing difficult topics while also having space to laugh. I believe in a collaborative process, empowering clients to embrace their authentic selves and make meaningful changes.
My ideal client is someone navigating a significant life transition—whether it’s entering a new phase of life, adjusting to a career shift, or healing after the end of a relationship, or starting a new one. They may be feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or disconnected from themselves and others. They often appear high-functioning on the outside but internally struggle with self-doubt, perfectionism, or emotional exhaustion. Their needs often include learning how to manage stress, set healthy boundaries, improve emotional regulation, and strengthen relationships. I have 13 years of experience and am licensed in three states. My approach to therapy is rooted in compassion, presence, and collaboration. I draw primarily from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and mindfulness-based practices to help clients build psychological flexibility, develop deeper self-awareness, and move toward a more values-driven life. I believe that healing begins in the context of a strong, trusting therapeutic relationship. I strive to create a warm, nonjudgmental space where you feel genuinely seen, heard, and supported. Therapy is a shared process, and I deeply respect the courage it takes to show up and be vulnerable. My role is to walk alongside you, offering guidance and insight.
I am a licensed therapist with a twenty-four year experience working with adult individuals with a vast of life challenges to assist them in developing adaptive coping mechanisms and strategies to deal with their individual challenges. I am compassionate and truly enjoy what I do. I will be honored to form a working alliance with you and be able to allow you to be who you are in a nonjudgmental manner that fosters a sense of quality of life and overall well-being. My style or approach to therapy is what I call a “pot” as I borrow from various evidenced-based models, theories and interventions to create a unique working plan for everyone I work with. I do, however, draw heavily from the Strength Perspective, Client Center, Motivational Interviewing, Psycho- dynamic, Solution Focused and Cognitive Behavior Therapy to name a few. I expect my clients to take away from sessions with me is an enhanced knowledge of their strengths and meaningful ways to address their challenges. We will work together always respecting their autonomy and uniqueness as a person. In addition, I expect my clients to highlight their sense of self-worth, self-value, self-respect as a pathway to improve better outcomes from therapy.
