Professional statement

Dr. Snehal Kumar is a Licensed Psychologist who focuses a large part of her practice on helping people manage everyday stress, create balance in their lives, and develop behaviors that better fit with their goals and values. She specializes in helping her clients navigate stress and transitions, dating and relationships, gender/women’s issues, and burnout. She pays attention to how gender norms, cultural expectations, race-related experiences, and other identity issues may interplay with stress, expectations of ourselves and others, and the impact on mental health.

Dr. Kumar approaches therapy from a relational, integrative, and multicultural framework with skills grounded in mindfulness and positive psychology. Empathetic and collaborative, she is passionate about meeting clients where they are, identifying where they want to be, and working towards meaningful, realistic, and kind goals.

Dr. Kumar works to provide culturally-sensitive care, and her practice is affirming of folks of all gender, sexual, and cultural identities.

Dr. Kumar's initial video consultations typically last 15 to 20 minutes. Please message her to schedule your first free initial call!
