Clinical Social Work/Therapist
New York, NY

I am passionate about working with college students 18 and older that are struggling with painful life experiences that affect their mental and physical health. I provide a safe, accepting environment, using evidence-based modalities for change, and support my clients in the process of healing and becoming the best versions of themselves. My clients are resilient- however, having to be "strong" and in survival mode all the time is exhausting, and it's okay to let your guard down with me. I aim to support my clients in not only surviving, but thriving. My clients achieve a healthier relationship with themselves, others, and the world around them.

With warmth, empathy and humor, I create a non-judgemental, and safe environment in which to explore and resolve challenging issues. I am a solution-focused therapist, and my primary goals are the relief of distressing symptoms, restoring emotional balance and clarity of thought, improving self regulation, developing more stable and intimate relationships, and having a more satisfying life experience. While we can't change difficult experiences of the past, we can work together to better understand and resolve challenges in the present.

Therapy can help you effect change in your life and make it more meaningful, fuller, more joyful, or more vibrant. It is wonderful that you are taking this first step in gaining possibilities for yourself. Life can be full of tension and it is helpful to talk with someone who can empower you and help you find your calm, your center, and your action. I will approach your care without assumptions or judgments, with curiosity and an intent for us to both be surprised and create and discover new experiences that facilitate an amazing life. I specialize in helping people who are struggling with intense and painful anxiety, fear, sadness, despair, and a lack of meaning or direction. People I work with experience me as genuinely caring, thoughtful, and passionate and find relief and rejuvenation in a space of containing that we create together.

This is a challenging time for all of us, but you are not alone. I am offering phone and video therapy sessions available throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, and I am offering sliding scale sessions. I work to help increase your awareness of the emotional patterns you're living with in your day-to-day life. The more self-aware you become, the easier it is to identify what makes you happy and what doesn’t. As you grow in self-acceptance, you will find new ways of living your life. Reach out and let's see if we are a good fit.

Hi there! I’m Muskan, a therapist-in-training passionate about supporting individuals through life’s challenges. I know that transitions throughout adulthood and seeking change or understanding within oneself can feel overwhelming, and my goal is to be a supportive, nonjudgmental resource as you navigate your mental health journey. Whether you're dealing with anxiety, depression, self-esteem issues, relationship struggles, or the stress of figuring out who you are, I’m here to listen and help you work through it all. I believe in the power of therapy to help you gain clarity, develop coping skills, and build confidence as you face life’s ups and downs. I use a mix of approaches, based on a foundation of cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) and mindfulness techniques, to help you find what works best for you. My goal is to empower you to understand yourself better, feel more in control, and develop healthier ways to manage stress and relationships. I am in my last year of my MSW program at East Texas A&M University, where my focus is mental health service provision to individuals and families. When I’m not in session, you can find me in a yoga studio, reading, or spending time with my friends and family. I’m excited to be here and look forward to working together as you explore your strengths, discover new insights, and move forward with more confidence. Thank you for considering me, and congratulations on beginning your therapy journey! Muskan Hussain is a therapist-in-training at Sol Health.

Are you a resilient person who is struggling? Have you lived through a recent traumatic event or had a stressful childhood, and find yourself frequently stuck in self-destructive patterns and relationships? Is adjusting to college life causing you to feel anxious, depressed, or overwhelmed and just plain burnt out? Or have you experienced a sexual assault and don't know how to deal with it? Adjusting to college is a significant life transition and it's not always clear what to do next. Finding confidence in your own voice and abilities, and clarity about your own needs can be difficult when you've been through stressful experiences. I'm here to guide you back to yourself, offer you some coping skills, help you clarify your life direction and reach your goals. I specialize in working with professionals in the performing arts and other creative fields, as well as those who want to enter them. I also work frequently with people in the helping professions and social justice oriented fields. My approach is informed by my own life experience as a former professional dancer in the American Ballet Theatre, and by the study of meditation and yoga. I have been in the social work field since graduating from Hunter College School of Social work 2004. In addition to talk therapy, I use mindfulness techniques like meditation, guided visualizations, as well as attention to body sensations to help you identify and begin to move through where you get blocked. I am also trained in EMDR and utilize that technique to help people heal from trauma and other stressful experiences. **Will be out of office July 11-.**
