Therapist

I am a caring and supportive therapist with 10 years of experience helping people navigate mental health and substance use challenges. I have worked with individuals in both clinical and hospital settings, supporting people through difficult and often stressful times in their lives.

My goal is to provide a safe, comfortable, and judgment-free space where you can feel heard, understood, and respected. I work with each person as an individual and believe that therapy should be a place where you can talk openly, understand yourself better, develop healthy coping skills, and work toward the changes you want to make.

Whether you are struggling with your mental health, substance use, life changes, relationships, or simply feeling overwhelmed, you don't have to face it alone. I am here to listen, support you, and work with you toward your goals.

Therapist

I regularly work with individuals facing a variety of life's diverse challenges including anxiety/ panic, family-of-origin concerns, depression, maternal mental health, transition to parenthood, trauma, grief/ loss, sexual issues, and career related concerns. I also have a specialization in sex and relationship therapy. Please note, I do not provide couple or family therapy services on insurance as these forms of therapy are not recognized by insurances. If you'd like couple or family services, I provide out of network services and can also provide a sliding scale based on your income/ genuine financial need.

My clients are often seeking a combination of clarity, coping skills, and in general -- more ease and happiness in their daily life. I also have a unique specialization in "relationship therapy for one" where we unpack what might be keeping you stuck or unhappy when it comes to your overall relationship health/ satisfaction.

I have been a licensed therapist for over a decade and received my training at state of the art educational institutes including Syracuse University and other hospital and outpatient centers across NY and Manhattan. I have also sought out ongoing participation in professional clinical consultation groups with some of the most influential therapists and thought leaders of our time. These varied and diverse professional training experiences enable me to provide the best possible care to each client I serve. In addition, I also provide training and mentorship for new therapists looking to specialize in sex and relationship health.

Aditi Rai

Therapist

Virtual • Connecticut


I’m Aditi Rai, LMHC-D, and the founder of Aura of Hope Psychotherapy, a New York–based telehealth practice supporting adults navigating anxiety, self-doubt, and the lasting impact of family and relational wounds. Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of working with clients from diverse backgrounds who are ready to understand themselves more deeply and create meaningful change.

I care deeply about creating a space that feels safe, genuine, and free of judgment. Clients often describe me as warm, grounded, and easy to talk to. My role is to help you feel seen and supported as we explore what’s been heavy—while helping you reconnect with your inner strength, confidence, and capacity for healing.

Therapist

Many of my clients come in carrying more than most people can see — anxiety that won't quiet down, grief that still feels fresh, or a past that keeps showing up in the present. I work with adults navigating depression, PTSD, substance use, and the kind of complicated emotions that don't fit neatly into words. I'm genuinely invested in your progress and am here to support you on your path towards living a more balanced life. I see clients across Connecticut via telehealth.

It's not easy starting therapy and investing time in yourself, but you've already done the first step! My experience has primarily been focused in clients with eating disorders and co-occurring diagnoses. With that said, I also have extensive experience working with relationship challenges, anxiety, self-harm, and suicidality. I generally like to pull from my knowledge of various therapy modalities such as DBT, CBT, FBT and EFFT. I also really enjoy self-compassion work. Your goals are always my top priority, and I am here to support you every step of the way.

Outside of work, I enjoy live music, spending time with friends, and hanging out with my dogs, Nala and Toni. These personal interests help me stay grounded and bring balance to my life, which I believe is crucial for overall well-being.

If you're ready to take the next step, I'm here to help you navigate your journey towards healing and growth. Let's work together to achieve your goals!

Hi, I’m Katherine! I’m a warm, down-to-earth clinician who believes therapy should feel like a conversation with someone who genuinely gets it—not a place where you feel like judged or lectured. I’m a big believer in being able to laugh together when the moment calls for it, while also making space for the hard stuff. I’m caring but goal-oriented, and I’ll work with you to figure out what you want to get out of therapy and help you take steps toward getting there.

Great to meet you! I believe mental health care is most effective when it is built on a foundation of mutual respect, active listening, and genuine support. In my practice, I specialize in working with adults navigating the complexities of anxiety, depression, chronic stress, and major life transitions.
