Find a Therapist in United States

I am a dedicated, perceptive and highly competent clinician with 33 years postgraduate experience who will work empathically and interactively with you to provide a Relational analytic experience which will effect profound growth and change in your relationships with yourself and with others.  

We are a full service counseling practice that offers a broad range of specialties for individuals, families, and groups. Our therapists are comprised of LPCs, Associate Licensed Clinicians, Pastoral Counselors and Life Coaches. Our therapists are passionate about helping individuals heal.  

I work to create an accepting, compassionate, and open environment. I'm skilled at addressing sensitive areas including neurodiversity, religious concerns, sexual & gender identities, unwanted sexual behaviors, & complex family relationships. I really enjoy getting to know individuals and working together to navigate challenges and find a path forward that works for you. I also offer a neurodiversity-affirming approach to adult autism and ADHD assessment.  

As a licensed therapist and passionate advocate for mental health equity, I founded CMHC with a clear mission: to create an affirming, inclusive, and culturally diverse space where LGBTQ+ individuals and people from all backgrounds can feel truly seen, heard, and supported. My journey into therapy was shaped by both personal experience and a professional calling—recognizing the deep need for compassionate, identity-affirming care in communities that have too often been marginalized or overlooked.  

I provide therapy to people from all walks of life and tailor counseling to each individual. I meet people right where they are to help them take steps towards the life they want. I believe that people who struggle with their thoughts and feelings are often just looking for a way to be the person they want to be and sometimes get lost along the way. They want to hold true to their personal values when making choices but have trouble finding a way forward. I believe that, through therapy, people can learn new and creative ways to respond to those thoughts and feelings so they can get back to living a life guided by their values.  

As relationship therapists, we aim to help individuals and couples overcome the challenges in their relationships. We believe that every person deserves to experience fulfilling relationships and that, with the right support, this is possible. Our approach to therapy is rooted in empathy, compassion, and a commitment to helping individuals and couples build stronger connections with one another. Through personalized sessions, we strive to create a safe and non-judgmental space where clients can explore their feelings and work towards their goals. Whether it's navigating communication issues, managing conflicts, or dealing with the aftermath of infidelity, I am dedicated to providing the support and guidance necessary to help clients overcome their obstacles and create a happier, healthier, and more fulfilling life.  

With many years of experience, I bring an eclectic, interactive approach to therapy. We each see the world through our unique lens, as well as how we see ourselves in relationships; all influenced by the larger systems we are part of. These different perspectives are honored. My style is to create a relaxed atmosphere , and our work is guided by our conversation. I listen for underlying patterns of behavior. This shapes my perceptions as to what interventions will be most beneficial. .  

I have a special interest in addressing various challenges, including Trauma and PTSD, Career Counseling, Anxiety, Depression, Self-esteem/Personal Growth, Life Transitions/Adjustment, Relationship Conflict, Multicultural Issues, Religion and Spirituality, Self-harm, Suicidal Ideation, and Bipolar/Mood Disorders. In my therapeutic approach, I incorporate Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), having completed the foundational training through the Linehan Institute and contributing to CCG's comprehensive DBT team. My toolkit also includes Cognitive Behavioral (CBT), Client-Centered, Solutions Focused, Trauma-Informed, and Psychodynamic modalities, with a willingness to integrate faith and spirituality into sessions upon client request. As a Resident in Counseling in Virginia and a Licensed Graduate Professional Counselor (LGPC) in Maryland, my priority is to establish a secure and collaborative environment, drawing on my Master's degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Marymount University. Being a National Certified Counselor (NCC) and a member of the American Counseling Association (ACA) and Chi Sigma Iota, I bring a wealth of expertise to my practice. My professional journey includes serving diverse populations at a group practice, where I supported first responders, medical staff, military personnel/veterans, international humanitarian workers, law enforcement, and journalists. I've worked with individuals facing fertility and prepartum/postpartum challenges and implemented social-emotional learning for refugee children in Germany. Beyond my counseling role, I find joy in outdoor activities, travel, culinary exploration, and quality time with my husband.  

I have a calling; helping people and seeing growth and change has been my lifelong passion. My focus is on self-knowledge, personal development, independence, and stress management. With a background as an occupational therapist and a master's in clinical social worker, I am equipped to assist you to clarify your values and goals to achieve balance and happiness. I believe that, despite all the trauma and personal challenges you have faced, with proper help, you can grow and develop into the person you were meant to be. And finally, feel peaceful and accomplished, living the life of your dreams.  

I draw from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Gestalt, Adlerian, and Solution-Focused approaches to support clients in pursuing goals that are meaningful and aligned with their values. I view therapy as a team effort and strive to show up as a clinician who works alongside you, honoring the whole person rather than focusing on isolated parts or symptoms. My style is relaxed, genuine, honest, and collaborative, with an emphasis on building a trusting and supportive therapeutic relationship. I am always open to clients' feedback on what they want to work on in session, giving them agency. As a former Division I rugby player, I bring a strong appreciation for positive sports psychology and am especially passionate about supporting athletes in the Chicagoland area as they navigate performance pressures, identity, transitions, and overall mental wellness.  

Hello, my name is Harneet Bedi, Are you looking to be understood? Do you feel stuck in a loop that you can’t seem to get out of? Are you wanting to build a relationship with your mind, body or soul, so that you can feel more at home within yourself? This is what therapy is about in the sessions I have with my clients. Whether you need EMDR to process some heavy trauma, or CBT to jump out of negative thought loops. Maybe you need IFS to connect with different parts of yourself, break things down. Or perhaps, some art therapy to bring out the joy that’s been missing. Breath work and body work can be combined to any approach we take. I have thorough training in multiple therapeutic techniques, and create a unique blend that aligns to you and your life context. At the center of our work together, is you. This is your space. I cannot fix you, I cannot heal you. But I can guide you. I can help facilitate your healing process, help you reveal and use the power to heal you already posses, however deep it may be buried. We can also create new tools together, ones that truly align with who you are as a person so that they feel natural, and as easy to use as your diaphragm is for breathing. As your therapist, we will explore your inner world together, and how that inner world is impacted by and communicates with the external world you’re in. Our work will be done within a space of humanity and true understanding. If or when you feel ready to begin, I look forward to working with you.  

Are worries, fears or panic consuming your life, preventing you from showing up as your best self? Do you feel overwhelmed with the stress of life or held back by a traumatic experience? Imagine feeling at ease within yourself, true connection in relationships and joy in your life. As a seasoned therapist with over 20 years experience in treating trauma, anxiety and depression, I provide a safe non-judgmental space to heal and grow while teaching you proven strategies that unlock self-healing, regulate the nervous system and create meaningful change.  

As a social worker, I will work with you where you are now. I do not believe in a cookie cutter approach to psychotherapy. Although people have similar needs, you have specific issues. My goal is to help you find mental health solutions that are tailored to you, so that you can effectively navigate through whatever challenges you are encountering. I work with what is true... true to you and your situation... openness to what rings true... and being true blue.  

As a member of the LGBTQIA+ community, a trauma survivor, and someone with a chronic pain disorder; I approach the work that I do from a place of empathy and personal understanding. I have an intense passion for understanding personal identity and the way race, culture, class, and sexuality come together to form what we believe about ourselves and what we feel we can accomplish in our lives. Anxiety and trauma can live in our bodies - together we will create a relationship that fosters dynamic and lasting growth, tapping into undiscovered reserves of resiliency that will help navigate the past and prepare for a more hopeful future.  

You're crushing it on the outside, but on the inside your brain is running laps you didn't sign up for. You've likely tried "just relaxing," "thinking positively," or being harder on yourself, yet challenges with anxiety, OCD, perfectionism, food struggles, or relationship gridlock persist. You're not broken, you're human. And your nervous system is trying (a little too hard) to protect you. I've spent over 25 years helping people untangle the distress by using evidence-based approaches like ERP, CBT and ACT. Therapy with me is practical, collaborative and insight driven and while I don't promise quick fixes, I will give you honesty, skill and a steady presence while you do brave things. If you're ready to understand your patterns and shift them - reach out.  

I believe that we all have challenges to deal with at different times in our lives. All of us as humans are at times faced with situations that can feel overwhelming and trigger unresolved conflicts. Psychotherapy can help in understanding ourselves, our behaviors, and in developing an appreciation for our uniqueness. Please call for a free consultation.  

I believe therapy is a tool to self-actualization. In a society where doing is valued over being, I help people discover who they really are without the labels, titles, and neatly wrapped boxes we like to categorize ourselves in. My work is centered around helping people grow into the fullest version of themselves—one that feels more authentic, more alive, more aware, and more at peace. Whether you're dealing with stress, self-esteem issues, or navigating major life transitions, I am committed to guiding you towards lasting healing and self-discovery.  

This practice is custom-tailored for creative professionals who are dealing with the challenges of ADHD, Autism (Level 1), or Anxiety. We can help you get more things done, manage difficult emotions, and improve your relationships. We use clinically sound methods like Cognitive Behavior Therapy and other forms to help you take back control and empower yourself.  

I believe that therapy is most powerful when it feels human, collaborative, and grounded in real life. My work is guided by a deep respect for the complexity of people’s experiences and the relationships that shape us. I am especially passionate about supporting adults and parents as they navigate stress, identity shifts, and the emotional challenges that often come with family life. With a background in both education and psychotherapy, I bring a developmental and neuroscience-informed lens to my work, helping clients better understand their emotional patterns and nervous system responses. My goal is to create a space where people feel genuinely understood, supported, and empowered to move toward greater clarity, connection, and resilience.  

What makes my therapy approach meaningful is the blend of warmth, cultural awareness, and practical support I bring into every session. Clients often tell me they feel genuinely seen and understood, sometimes for the first time, because I take the time to learn their story, honor their lived experiences, and meet them where they are. I focus on helping people make real, lasting shifts in how they relate to themselves and the people they care about, without judgment or pressure. If you're feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or unsure of your next step, reaching out is a powerful place to start. I’d be honored to support you in building clarity, confidence, and a stronger sense of emotional wellbeing.
