Chandni is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Licensed Clinical Alcohol and Drug Counselor with years of clinical experience across outpatient, IOP, partial hospitalization, and ambulatory detox settings. She brings a collaborative, strengths-based approach to individual and couples therapy.
Chandni’s early work as an EMT shaped a deep understanding of the mind-body connection and a commitment to treating emotional pain with the same urgency as physical crisis. She draws from evidence-based modalities tailored to your goals — whether you’re working through anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, addiction, life transitions, or relational conflict.
Chandni works with adults and couples navigating co-occurring disorders, trauma, addiction, and step-down care from higher levels of treatment. She also works with professionals in high-demand corporate environments facing career identity shifts, workplace dynamics, and relational strain.
Chandni offers virtual couples therapy across New Jersey — working with partners navigating conflict cycles, communication breakdown, trust ruptures, life transitions, and the relational strains that often accompany individual mental health or addiction challenges.
Chandni is invested in developing early-career clinicians. As a Field Liaison for the MSW program at Rutgers, she mentors graduate students during field training. Her prior roles as Clinical Supervisor and Program Coordinator gave her direct experience training interns and new staff across multiple levels of care.
Chandni’s career spans ambulatory detox, partial hospitalization, intensive outpatient, and outpatient settings — giving her a systems-level understanding of how clients move through care. In her current outpatient practice, she provides individual, couples, and family therapy informed by years of work with complex, co-occurring presentations.
