Zeesha Amjad

Mental Health Counseling Intern

Telehealth Services for Adults & Adolescents

Zeesha is under the clinical supervision of Kelly Benjamin LMHC and Timothy Crumley, LMHC

You deserve a space where you feel heard, understood, and supported without judgment. As a counseling intern in the Counseling and Community Psychology M.A. program at Russell Sage College, with a background in Psychology and Public Health from SUNY Albany, I hope to bring both training and compassion into our work together. My approach is rooted in person-centered care, meaning therapy is guided by your unique experiences, goals, and pace. I integrate evidence-based practices such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness, Relational-Cultural Theory, and Solution-Focused Therapy to help you gain insight, build coping skills, and create meaningful, lasting change. I am here for you, to help you become the best possible version of yourself.

I have experience supporting individuals navigating anxiety, depression, life transitions, relationship challenges, and co-occurring substance use and mental health concerns. I have also worked with individuals on the autism spectrum, focusing on emotional regulation, communication, and daily functioning. Whether you’re feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure of where to begin, I want to meet you where you are and create a space that feels supportive, collaborative, and tailored to your specific needs.

Your identity, culture, and lived experiences matter to me. As someone from a South Asian background, I approach therapy with cultural humility and strive to create an environment that is not only affirming, but inclusive. I am fluent in English, Urdu, and Punjabi, and welcome any clients who may feel more comfortable expressing themselves in any of these languages. You don’t have to navigate things alone. I want to support you in building confidence, resilience, and a deeper understanding of yourself as you create a healthier, and fulfilling life.
