Services
Therapy for the parts of life that feel hard to carry alone
Lamisa provides culturally responsive virtual therapy in Bengali and English for clients in New York and New Jersey. Treatment is tailored to your goals, context, strengths, and stage of life rather than following a one-size-fits-all script.
ADHD support
Work on attention, organization, emotional regulation, follow-through, and the shame that can build after years of feeling misunderstood. Care is collaborative and adapted to your actual routines and priorities.
Stress and burnout therapy
Make space for exhaustion, caregiving pressure, work stress, and the feeling that rest must be earned. Therapy can help identify unsustainable patterns and build boundaries that are realistic in daily life.
Relationship and family therapy
Address communication, conflict, trust, changing roles, and recurring family patterns. The work can include couples and families when that format is clinically appropriate and available.
Cultural identity and intergenerational pressure
Talk openly about belonging, immigration, faith, family expectations, bicultural identity, and the tension between caring for others and making room for yourself.
Life transitions and coping skills
Build steadier ways to navigate changes in school, work, relationships, family responsibilities, and identity. The goal is support you can carry beyond the therapy session.
Who Lamisa works with
Care across ages and relationships
Lamisa's experience includes work with children, adolescents, adults, couples, families, and groups. An intake screening helps determine whether the requested service, current availability, and virtual format are a good fit.
Treatment approach
Warm, direct, and practical
Depending on your needs, sessions may draw from cognitive behavioral, mindfulness, multicultural, person-centered, interpersonal, and psychodynamic approaches. Lamisa combines careful listening with concrete tools that can be used between sessions.
