She has extensive experience supporting children and adolescents with ADHD, anxiety, and depression, tailoring treatment to the unique needs of each developmental stage. For families, she provides tools to improve communication and strengthen connections, while also guiding teens and young adults as they navigate identity, relationships, and academic pressures. Nidhi incorporates proven approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and family-based interventions to help patients build resilience and achieve meaningful progress.
