Psychotherapist and Psychoanalyst in Private Practice

Affiliated with New York Presbyterian Hospital

I am a licensed psychologist specializing in the treatment of disordered eating and body image concerns, as well as issues related to women's health, pregnancy, miscarriage, and adjustment to significant life transitions such as parenthood, work-family balance, college, career change, and loss. I believe a trusting and collaborative therapeutic relationship is essential in the facilitation of healing, and the process of growth and change. I employ an integrative method, drawing from various theoretical understandings and treatment modalities, to develop an effective approach to address distinct needs.
Additionally, I believe the consideration of multicultural and social factors to be central to the understanding of individual concerns. My style is warm and engaged, aimed at both reducing symptoms and increasing insight into interpersonal patterns, and past influences on current functioning.
As a native Spanish speaker, I also bring extensive experience working bilingually in hospital, college, and private practice settings. In addition to individual psychotherapy, I offer consultation to parents and families on various topics related to child and adolescent development, preparing for the transition to college, and eating and body image concerns.

I have worked with adults and older adolescents who struggle with relationship issues, overwhelming emotions, challenging life circumstances, and difficult transitions.

My goal is to help the people I work with achieve meaningful and lasting change that improves the quality of their lives.

Aarti Khullar, PsyD is a licensed clinical psychologist, in private practice in Tribeca and work with the emerging and early adult population in her practice. She orients and grounds herself within a psychodynamic relational framework. She particularly enjoys working with clients struggling and looking to explore issues of identity & culture.

I help teenagers, young adults and mothers who are struggling with anxiety, depression and family conflicts. Our work will help you create calm, find clarity and gain control in your emotions and relationships. The clients I work with have come to the point that they can't stand the way things have been going in their lives and they are desperate for a change. Their levels of anxiety or depression have become stifling and they have developed negative ways of coping with these emotions. They are up at night thinking of ways they can fix their problems, but they don't know how to or where to start.

What I enjoy most about being a therapist is fostering relationships, and creating a space in which clients can build trust and learn more about themselves through the process. I am committed to using an anti-oppressive framework that explores how environments, relationships, and circumstances shape clients’ thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. I have extensive experience working within queer communities, as well as with those who have lived through extensive trauma, and I have received advanced clinical training in Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). I have practiced in both nonprofit and community outpatient settings which has allowed me to work with clients across a wide array of identities and experiences.
