Amoha Bajaj, PhD

Clinical & Health Psychologist

My Specialties Are:

  • Depression, Anxiety, and Stress

  • Women’s Health & Intimacy Issues

  • Perfectionism & Low Self-Esteem

  • Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD)

  • Phobias

  • Insomnia

  • Chronic Pain & Smoking Cessation

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.
