Dr. Amoha Bajaj, PhD- Clinical & Health Psychologist

Therapy for adults experiencing a wide range of symptoms at the intersection of mind + body 

My Specialties Are:

  • Women’s Health & Intimacy Issues

  • Insomnia

  • Depression, Anxiety, and Stress

  • Perfectionism & Low Self-Esteem

  • Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder

  • Chronic Pain & Smoking Cessation

  • Adjustment to Medical Illness

Working Together, a Multidisciplinary Approach:

My approach to psychology combines Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) with elements of Interpersonal Therapy (IPT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Motivational Interviewing (MI), and Mindfulness-Based practices. This integrated approach is tailored to meet your unique needs, helping you to understand your behaviors, emotions, and thoughts more deeply.

We will use a strengths-based and goal-driven approach to help you make the changes you want and need to live a more fulfilling life. 

The best part of my work is seeing people meet their goals, create meaningful change, and improve confidence and self-esteem in the process.

Schedule a Free Consultation

Are you feeling unsure about therapy? That’s completely normal. The best way to find out if we can work together is to have a free call. It’s an opportunity to explore if therapy is the right path and ask any questions.  If you decide that we are fit, we can then schedule our first session. 


If we are not a good fit, I am happy to make a referral to another therapist in my network. I have openings for new patients and currently do not have a waitlist.

All inquiries will receive an email response within 24 hours. Together, we’ll figure out a time to chat by phone.
