Sneha Raj, PsyD, LP

I am a licensed, practicing clinical psychologist who strives to foster a safe space for clients ages 18+ of diverse races, ethnicities, genders and sexualities, and to individuals with disabilities. Vikas Psychology LLC offers telehealth therapy services clients ages 18+, residing within Minnesota and all 42, PSYPACT participating states. (Current states not eligible for services: AL, CA, HI, LA, MA, MT, NM, NY, OR, PR, VI, Guam). I use an integrative approach of Biopsychosocial, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Health at Every Size frameworks, to explore how your thoughts, emotions, and reactions work together and how they can be enhanced to better manage stress and increase your overall quality of life. I offer telehealth psychotherapy services and work with diverse clients who may struggle to manage life stress, regulate their mood, and/or are considering ways to 'level up," to meet the next chapter of life. Most clients experience relief from distress and greater confidence to make healthy life changes within a month of starting therapy. I view my clients as experts in their own, unique lives and I see my role, as a psychologist and therapist, to be your consultant and companion as we embark on a "Vikas," a Sanskrit term, meaning "an unfolding journey" of exploration and growth. Through our conversations in therapy we work, together, to uncover your strengths, what allows you to be resilient in the face of adversity, and explore what allows you to experience a meaningful quality of life as you continue to evolve and change in your life. I have experience working with clients who seek therapy for specific reasons, like management of mood (such as depression or anxiety), navigation of life transitions (such as family planning, grief, or retirement), or consider way ways to enhance their quality of life (like managing chronic illnesses, learning behavioral skills to manage symptoms of ADHD, or enhancing readiness to receive bariatric surgery), and with clients who seek out a therapeutic space for self growth and self exploration. I offer a free, 15 minute consult before you decide to schedule a more in-depth, initial intake meeting to talk about your therapy goals and plan for meeting in the future.
