Aprajita Saxena

Hi, I’m Aprajita (uh-PRAH-ji-ta). My name is often new to people, so please don’t worry about getting it right. I’m glad you’re here.

Our emotions aren’t always easy to understand, especially when they feel intense, overwhelming, or hard to regulate. You might notice yourself reacting in ways that don’t fully make sense, feeling unsettled, or finding it hard to feel grounded in yourself, whether you’re a child, an adolescent, or an adult.


In my work, I support nervous system regulation and the ways stress, emotion, and past experience are held in the body. Alongside talk therapy, I bring in music-based and creative approaches to help emotions be processed in a way that feels contained and supported.


A meaningful part of my work is with adults, anxiety, life transitions, self-esteem, and questions of identity and belonging. As a South Asian immigrant and therapist, I bring both lived and clinical understanding of how identity, cultural expectations, and emotionally demanding environments can shape how we experience anxiety, stress, and our connection to ourselves.


I also work closely with neurodivergent children, teens, and families navigating autism, developmental differences, and ADHD. Music-based and sensory-aware approaches reach kids who don’t always have words for
what they’re feeling, and give parents practical tools for the moments when everything feels too much.


In our work together, there’s room to slow down, notice patterns with curiosity, and build tools that help you feel more present, more supported, and more like yourself.
