How to Start Online Therapy

Hi there, I’m Nefertari. Welcome to the Center for Resiliency.

I’m an Associate Therapist at the Center for Resiliency, where I take a client-centered, trauma-informed approach to therapy. I am passionate about mental health and wellness, and I look forward to collaborating with you on your journey toward balance, insight, and resilience.

I currently support individuals from diverse backgrounds, with a particular focus on adults and transitional-aged youth. My clinical areas of experience include:

• Coping Skills for Anxiety and Stress

• Identity and Self-Esteem

• Parental Relationships and Conflict

• Relationships and Communication

• Anxiety & Stress Management

• PTSD & Trauma

• Mindfulness & Emotional Regulation

• Depression

I draw from an integrative psychotherapy framework grounded in evidence-based

practices, including:

• Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT)• Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT)• Narrative Therapy• Behavioral Activation (BA)• Problem-Solving Therapy (PST)• EMDR

I completed my MSW at the Columbia School of Social Work with an emphasis in Advanced Clinical Practice. I am a BBS-certified ACSW with an established background in behavioral health, providing direct services to individuals with a range of mental health needs and diagnoses.

Outside of my therapeutic work, I enjoy immersing myself in cultural activities, mindfulness practices, dance, pickleball, and reading—anything that nurtures the mind-body connection and inspires curiosity.

I appreciate your taking a moment to learn more about me and my work. My goal is to offer a therapeutic environment where insight can develop, resilience can be strengthened, and healing feels both possible and sustainable. Regardless of where you are in your mental health journey, I believe in your capacity for transformation and in the unique strengths you bring to the therapeutic process. I would be privileged to join you in your progress toward increased clarity and well-being.
