Farzana Rahman
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC-D
Having worked for a decade, I have supported clients through the nuanced and demanding areas of interpersonal stress, major life transitions, identity exploration, and the long-lasting impact of early adverse childhood experiences. I hold particular care and awareness towards the cultural, relational, and systemic forces that shape a person’s sense of self. I feel especially attuned to how family histories and early attachments influence adult relationships, therefore, I often invite clients to explore identity, unlearn old narratives, and build relationships that feel grounded and authentic. My unique, yet collective experiences as a child of immigrant parents and a South Asian woman allow me to recognize how family expectations, cultural identity, gender identity, and other parts of ourselves are important in the therapy work.

Resouling Therapy
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC, LPC
I (Mike) help clients put words to their inner experiences in ways that allow them to connect more deeply with themselves, leading to greater healing and freedom. Many clients share their surprise at how accurately I reflect what they are trying to express, and they often describe feeling seen and understood in our sessions. I work primarily with men, helping them identify and make sense of their emotions so they can express themselves more fully and experience more satisfying relationships.
The therapists on our team work from this same foundation. Through close, ongoing supervision, I emphasize attunement, emotional accuracy, and a steady, non-judgmental presence, so clients can expect thoughtful, relational therapy that values understanding before problem-solving.

Jonathan Schnapp
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I believe therapy works best when it feels like a genuine, collaborative relationship—one where you can speak freely and be met with curiosity rather than judgment. My approach is thoughtful and attuned, helping you make sense of patterns, emotions, and experiences at your own pace. Together, we’ll explore what’s getting in the way and work toward a deeper understanding that can open up new possibilities for how you relate to yourself and others.

Jason Powell
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, CST
I work with individuals and couples navigating sexual concerns, infidelity, and shifts in trust, desire, or emotional closeness that leave relationships feeling strained or uncertain. Many still want intimacy and connection, but feel unsure how to move toward one another without repeating familiar patterns. Sessions focus on what unfolds between people in real time, with attention to responsiveness, clarity, and emotional presence.

Elmhurst is among the most ethnically diverse neighborhoods on earth, a Queens community of Chinese, South Asian, Latin American, Filipino, and dozens more communities layered into a few square miles — and the neighborhood whose hospital became the national symbol of COVID-19's first wave. Pandemic grief and essential-worker trauma remain part of local memory, alongside immigrant family stress and formidable language-access challenges. Elmhurst Hospital and community organizations anchor care in many languages.
