Hi, I'm Sharad Yadav

Many of the people I work with are thoughtful, insightful, and have already done a great deal of work on themselves. They may have tried therapy before, gained valuable insight, and still find themselves repeating the same emotional or relationship patterns.

 

I believe lasting change comes from more than understanding your struggles—it comes from experiencing them differently. My approach integrates experiential, attachment-oriented, and psychodynamic therapy to help you move beyond symptom management toward meaningful, lasting transformation.

Testimonials

“As a counselor his non-anxious presence, deep listening, elicitive "teach me" approach and understanding, have companioned me through some very stressful times. I highly recommend Sharad. His calling, passion, skills, and gifts are worthy of your time and investment in reconciling life's brokenness with the need for personal courage and hope.”
Tony R.
“I was going through it, my parents had finalized their divorce and in the midst of a pandemic I couldn’t have felt more alone and confused with my own thoughts and feelings. I met with Sharad once a week and I’ve never looked forward to something more. The environment and safety that he provided made my emotions feel justified and gave me a place hurt and to heal.”
Silas J.
“Sharad has a non-judgmental way of meeting you where you are, even in your darkest, most shameful moments, with empathy, understanding and a deep compassion that is a rarity in our world. I am so grateful for the way he has been able to help me cope with mental health crises, name what I couldn’t, and insightfully call such strength out of me that I’m not sure I would have seen otherwise.
Shelly H.
