Rudhdi Karnik
I am Rudhdi Karnik, LMSW, and I am a Columbia-University trained, Indian American therapist. My specialization lies in working with adolescents, young adults, and cross-cultural couples. My primary goal in therapy is to empower my clients by deepening their understanding of their emotions and guiding them towards decisions that align with their true identities. With my extensive clinical experience in NYC high schools, I often help students and parents navigate the challenging blend of family dynamics and academic stress.
Further, as a certified yoga teacher, I incorporate mindfulness practices into my treatment approach, allowing us to create a space to slow down, nurture your nervous system, and connect with the innate wisdom held within your body. I am here to support you through the complexities of conflicting internal and external pressures to help you live your most authentic life.
*In addition to English, I can speak Marathi and Hindi.
