About Me
It's time to change the way you show up for yourself.
I’m Ramaya, a Licensed Professional Counselor based in New Jersey. I specialize in supporting individuals navigating anxiety, drawing from both my professional expertise and personal experience. I know firsthand how overwhelming anxiety can feel, and I’m here to share the tools and strategies that have helped many—including myself—find calm and clarity.
My goal is to guide you on a transformative journey, helping you break free from patterns that no longer serve you and step into a more peaceful, balanced version of yourself. Together, we can create a space for growth, healing, and lasting change.
When I’m not working, I find joy in cooking, arts and crafts, moving my body, and pursuing activities that bring inner peace and satisfaction.
✨ Let’s connect and take the first step toward the calm and confident life you deserve!
Anxiety isn’t just a mental challenge—it’s something deeply felt in the body. As someone who specializes in helping women with high-functioning anxiety, I understand the unique struggles you face. On the surface, you appear to have it all together, but inside, you may feel overwhelmed, restless, and disconnected.
I believe healing anxiety involves addressing the mind, body, and soul as a whole. Together, we’ll explore practical tools and strategies to calm your nervous system, reframe unhelpful thought patterns, and reconnect with your inner self.
What You Can Expect:
Practical Guidance: From breathwork and grounding techniques to tailored mindfulness exercises, you'll learn strategies to manage anxiety in real time.
Understanding the Root Cause: We’ll explore the underlying patterns driving your anxiety and work toward sustainable, long-term healing.
A Supportive Space: You’ll have a compassionate ally to guide you as you navigate your journey toward peace and clarity.
✨ You don’t have to do this alone. Let’s work together to transform anxiety into a pathway for growth and self-discovery.
Contact me today to learn more about how we can work together to create a calmer, more confident version of you. 🌿

Does this sound like you?
You may be feeling
-anxious
-overwhelmed
-unsure about yourself &
-dreadful about upcoming changes in your life.
You want to be able to become more present in your day to day moments, feel safe and confident in who you are, and give your needs importance. You weren’t given a handbook with life that teaches you how to navigate thoughts/emotions and all the changes life can throw at us. We can work on this together and help you create the handbook on you - to help you restore balance, connect with yourself, and achieve peace.
You need space to put down the heavy weight you have been carrying.
I am so glad that you have come this far!
I work with professional adults who are going through life transitions. This may be something as small as changing the time you wake up, or implementing more water in your routine to something big, like a new diagnosis of chronic illness,a beginning or ending of marriage or starting a new job.
Oftentimes, my clients tell me they have been managing their emotions on their own thus far and have come to a point where that’s no longer working. Normally they are referred to as resilient and they are able to power through everything – even their emotions. Powering through everything can become exhausting and taxing on your mind and body.
You are at a place where you’re carrying a heavy load trying to manage your responsibilities, but have a lowered tolerance to handle things, you feel stuck or overwhelmed more often than not, and the future seems bleak.
Since you’re already juggling one too many things, the benefit of virtual services is that it can be very convenient and work around your schedule without it being another place you need to get to.
You can have a place where you can express all that is going on in your mind and body in a nonjudgmental and supportive atmosphere. We will dive into
the core elements of who you are (nature),
the experiences you have been through (nurture) &
how that shapes your worldviews.
By exploring this together, we can focus on how to help you be more in the present which will improve your quality of life. I don’t want to help you bandage the issue, but to get to the root and core of it. We will work with your strengths as a tool in your healing.
Empowering you to take control of what things work for you. While, sometimes it may be uncomfortable to speak on certain things, I will meet you where you are and walk with you through it to consider all the possible avenues for your healing. I offer tailor made treatment for your needs.
You can feel better, think more clearly, and move forward with focus and attention.
I knew I wanted to be a therapist at a very young age. People always asked me how did you know that so early? It’s because I wanted to be that hope and help for people that I needed and received. I also found it difficult to find a therapist who is is Pakistani and had a personal understanding of cultural expectations.
I experienced first hand and continue to experience the benefits of therapy. So I became an expert, I decided to get certified in anxiety treatment. Not only do you get someone who is trained but also has first hand experience dealing with some of the same things you might be dealing with!
I love working with every and all cultures, I specifically have personal knowledge of the Muslim/Pakistani community.
