I approach each of the people I work with from a place of deep appreciation for human relationships and their dynamics. I strive to provide a feeling of ease, comfort, and warmth through the therapeutic experience we will create together. I am a trained psychotherapist, but before that, I am a human being whose goal is to shine light, compassion, and positivity in all of my relationships and interactions. It is a core belief of mine that this light is in all of us and I aim for each of my clients to recognize that in themselves. Congratulations on taking this first step toward self-exploration and understanding; I commend you for being here and appreciate your bravery and commitment to your healing journey.

My professional interests include social justice and psychotherapeutic practices in childhood trauma. I have worked with low-income adults in medical and housing case management, and as a home-based intensive therapist with teens. In addition to my private practice work, I currently assist public schools in providing mental health and related services for students, their families, and district staff of all levels. In my personal time I enjoy reading fiction, taking weekend hikes with loved ones, and trying out new recipes in the kitchen.

It would be my pleasure to meet you and warmly guide your evolution through the very normal stages of being human. Whether we will be outsmarting unhelpful thoughts, holding emotions without drowning in them, or practicing real-world interactions together, please contact me today to take the next step on your life’s journey.

My professional background includes working with individuals who have experienced substance use and addiction, childhood trauma, and those who simply want to build a greater sense of self-love. During our sessions, I will bring my most authentic self in order to get to know the most genuine version of you so that we might reauthor your story to one of greater confidence and resilience.

In my personal time I enjoy reading, being outdoors (especially in the winter!) and cooking foods from all over the world. I would be honored to work with you in healing whatever interpersonal dynamics or unhelpful thoughts or behaviors are in the way of you feeling like the genuine you. I’m looking forward to meeting you!

I specialize in working with teens and adults who are looking to gain a greater self of self-awareness through a holistic, collaborative lens. Whether it be generalized anxiety, trauma/PTSD, or other emotional needs which impact us personally and relationally, know that we will hold space for all of it together, completely nonjudgmentally. I am also passionate about supporting women’s issues and those who may be part of the LGBTQ+ community, including folks who are exploring gender or other areas of identity.

The foundation of my practice is rooted in Internal Family Systems (IFS), Somatic Therapy, and mindfulness-based practices while also incorporating aspects of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT).

In this integrative approach, the aim is not merely temporary symptom relief, but a harmonious balance that empowers you to thrive in every dimension of your life by getting to the root of challenges for true, lasting healing.

You are the true architect of your well-being. As we collaborate in this therapeutic relationship, know that my role is not to heal you as much as it is to guide you in discovering your own inherent capacity for healing and growth. If you are ready to unlock that innate ability, I am honored to walk this path with you.

Hello! I am Dr. Anila Reddy, a physician and licensed psychotherapist who works with both individual clients as well as couples. I am from the beautiful country of India where I completed my medical training, and am fluent in English, Hindi, and Telugu. My approach is a holistic one, a blending of Eastern and Western philosophies, and based on practical application of tools and strategies. Many of my clients appreciate a “mind-body-spirit” perspective when navigating current challenges, and recognize that true transformation and lasting change involves more than just dealing with a frantic mind. This is where my clinical background as a medical doctor comes in; it allows me to also holistically consider biological, psychological, and social factors in your journey.

My experience includes working with teens and adults from diverse cultural backgrounds; from students navigating the pressures of academics, to professionals overwhelmed by their workloads and parents juggling multiple roles while balancing family life. I apply holistic and spiritual principles in combination with CBT, ACT, and other impactful therapeutic modalities customized to fit your unique needs. Whether you are battling anxiety or OCD, depression, relationship challenges, LGBTQ+ related needs, substance use, or simply feeling stuck and stagnant hoping for more clarity and peace in your life, know that I am here to support you 100%. Together, we will navigate your journey as I act as your guide through life’s twists and turns.

I believe that everyone is on a quest for something; a quest for joy, happiness, and fulfillment. Sometimes it can feel like a roller coaster ride, getting messy and leaving you wandering through a maze of self-doubt and confusion. One minute you’re on top of the world, and the next, you’re wondering how you ended up here. Together, we will find the way out and uncover the truest version of you who you know is in there, but has somehow gotten tangled up and turned around by societal expectations, the opinions of others, and that inner critic we all have.

As a clinician trained in Psychodynamic Therapy, I place great emphasis on the therapeutic relationship as a cornerstone of our work together. My daily yoga practice helps me cultivate a space of presence and acceptance, allowing us to approach emotions and experiences from a place of curiosity, rather than judgment. Just as in Rumi’s poem "The Guest House," all feelings and thoughts are welcomed as honored visitors in our sessions.

Utilizing a holistic approach together, we can integrate a variety of tools and techniques that resonate with you, such as yoga, tarot (archetypal therapy), and other systems you may find meaningful. My therapeutic foundation is humanistic and person-centered, drawing on mindfulness-based practices and an eclectic blend of modalities like Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Existential Therapy (ET), and shadow work. Grounded in the teachings of Carl Jung, I believe in accessing the unseen aspects of the self, both individual and collective, through these methods. For male-identified folks I work with, I often employ a framework that is loosely based on Joseph Campbell’s “Hero’s Journey”, Robert Bly’s “Iron John”, and Robert Moore’s “King, Warrior, Magician, Lover: Rediscovering the Archetypes of the Mature Masculine”.

In addition to my private practice work, I support college students at a university counseling center in New York City where I completed both my graduate field work and post-graduate fellowship. When I’m not in session, I enjoy exploring the outdoors through hiking, reading graphic novels, and traveling.
