Prachi Panchal

Her therapeutic style is warm, collaborative, and insight-oriented while remaining grounded in evidence-based approaches. Prachi draws from various modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Internal Family Systems (IFS/parts work), mindfulness-based practices, somatic techniques, Emotion Focused Therapy (EFT) and solution-focused therapy (SFT). With a background in biological sciences and a personal interest in how the brain and body respond to stress, she also incorporates accessible neuroscience-based psychoeducation to help clients better understand their internal experiences.

Prachi works with individuals and couples navigating concerns such as anxiety, depression, trauma, ADHD, stress and emotional regulation difficulties, self-esteem challenges, relationship difficulties, and behavioral addictions or compulsive patterns. She also supports clients through life transitions, identity exploration, grief, burnout, and health-related stressors, including pregnancy and postpartum experiences, with particular attention to healing from relational wounds and betrayal trauma. Across her work, Prachi places strong emphasis on helping clients strengthen their relationship with themselves while improving connection and communication with others. Her work often resonates with individuals who feel caught between expectations and a deeper sense of who they want to become, as well as those navigating more complex mental health experiences, including personality-related challenges.

In addition to her clinical work, Prachi has supported individuals in crisis through her work as a responder with Kids Help Phone and has facilitated workshops on topics such as boundary-setting and navigating complex family dynamics. Prachi practices through a trauma-informed and culturally sensitive lens and strives to create a space where clients feel understood in the context of their cultural background, family experiences, and personal identity. Outside of her work, Prachi enjoys reading, meditating, painting with acrylics and watercolors, and experimenting in the kitchen. She also loves exploring new cafés, spending time in nature, and making time for learning and reflection.
