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.

Healthy Minds NYC | Vanessa Baumback
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
For a long time, you've handled it. You stay busy, you stay ahead, and it mostly works. Then something breaks through anyway — a panic attack out of nowhere, or a reaction that's way bigger than the thing that caused it. You can't think your way out of it, and working harder isn't helping.
That's usually a sign your system is still holding onto something it never got to process. It's not a willpower problem.
I specialize in EMDR, which is a well-researched approach to trauma that helps your brain actually process old experiences so they stop driving how you feel now. I work with successful, high-functioning people on anxiety, depression, and trauma — including the kind that doesn't look like trauma. The loss you moved past too quickly. The thing you've never said out loud.
I see clients remotely, throughout New York, and my office has options for in-person care as well. EMDR works well online, and for most of my clients the flexibility makes it easier to actually commit to the work.
I'm straightforward and I'm kind, and I won't let you talk circles around the thing you came in to deal with. You've been the strong one for a long time. You don't have to be that with me.
If you're ready to stop managing this and start working through it, let's talk and see if we're a good fit.
