Professional statement

Dhvani Patel Lindsey is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist who works with adults in their 20s, 30s, and 40s. She offers remote video sessions to clients living in NY or NJ. She specializes in anxiety, relationships, life and career transitions.

Dhvani’s background is in evidence-based therapies, so she frequently utilizes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and mindfulness, when appropriate. She also weaves in narrative therapy in order to help her clients reframe their past experiences and develop greater self-compassion. She has a deep understanding of the need for both insight- and goal-oriented sessions. She also works within a systems context by continually thinking about how an individual’s family, work, and support system influence who they are.

Dhvani wants her clients to leave sessions feeling empowered to reach their goals and with the confidence to take the next step or overcome the next challenge. She received her master’s degree in marriage and family therapy from the University of San Diego and has been in practice as a therapist for 12 years.
