Paulomi (Polly) Mehta Verified Provider

Paulomi (Polly) Mehta is a Licensed Associate Counselor who is licensed to provide telehealth counseling services to individuals in both New Jersey and New York. She also has an office in New York City, New York, as a part of Gaya Therapy. I appreciate that she offers a free 10 minute consultation to determine whether she’d be a good fit for your needs before embarking on the therapeutic endeavor. Polly offers her services in English, Hindi and Gujarati.

Inquisitive, Inclusive Therapy

As an Indian American who moved to the US at a young age, she’s had personal experience navigating the transition between cultures. This fuels her unique interest in helping individuals who feel caught between identities to navigate life’s complexities and find peaceful and fulfilling resolutions. Polly is a powerful ally for South Asian individuals and couples, as well as queer folk.

Offering an Eclectic Approach to Treatment

Her primary areas of focus include navigating cultural identity, family conflict, anxiety based issues and concerns related to self esteem. Polly draws on several schools of thought to provide a therapeutic approach tailored to your individual circumstances, including emotionally focused therapy, attachment based therapy, feminist therapy, and trauma sensitive cognitive behavioral therapy. She can also facilitate art therapy sessions for those who would benefit from expressing themselves through such a medium.
