Sreya Vemula

My communication style

I'm warm, direct, and collaborative. I will validate what makes sense without pretending that everything is working. I ask questions, notice patterns, teach skills, and tell you what I am seeing. You do not have to perform in therapy. We can be honest, curious, and practical together.

My journey to mental healthcare

My work has centered on trauma from the beginning of my counseling career. I am also a trauma survivor, which shaped my respect for how hard healing can be and how much courage change can take. I became a therapist because I wanted to offer treatment that is both deeply compassionate and clinically purposeful.

My goals for you

We make goals concrete. We identify what you want to be different, what keeps getting in the way, and what would move you closer to the life you want. Then we choose the treatment that fits: processing, skills, behavior change, or strengthening resources. We track what works and adjust when needed.

Our first session

You do not have to tell me everything in the first session. We will talk about what brought you in, what you want to change, what has helped or not helped before, and what you need from therapy. My goal is for us to leave with a shared understanding of where we are starting and what we are working toward.

I identify as...

• Female
• Asian, South East Asian
