My approach is trauma-informed, disability-affirming, and LGBTQIA+-affirming, shaped in part by my own lived experiences with marginalized identities.

Anisha Tyagi, LCSWA (she/her) provides individual and group psychotherapy for children and their caregivers, adolescents, and adults. Her approach is trauma-informed, disability-affirming, and LGBTQIA+-affirming, shaped in part by her own lived experiences with marginalized identities. She offers therapy in both English and Hindi. Anisha is a graduate of Smith College (BA) and UNC Chapel Hill (MSW). She brings experience supporting adolescents in intensive outpatient settings, working with youth in schools, and integrating mindfulness into treatment of addiction behaviors (including smoking cessation). She is skilled in group and individual therapy, with particular interests in neurodivergence, family and relationship dynamics, minority stress, and chronic pain. She is also deepening her work in insight-oriented approaches and play therapy through ongoing supervision and training with Potential Space. As an immigrant and child of immigrants, Anisha has lived in the U.S., India, and Indonesia, experiences that enrich her clinical perspective and cultural sensitivity. Her work is grounded in authenticity, curiosity, and respect for each person’s unique story. Outside of therapy, she enjoys reading character-driven fiction, spending time in nature, learning new languages, and connecting with loved ones around the world.
