Hi! My name is Bandna, and I'm a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in NY. Seeking therapy is a courageous step, and I commend you for taking it! I am dedicated to providing compassionate and effective evidence-based therapy to teens and adults seeking support for anxiety, depression, and trauma. I believe that therapy is a collaborative journey, and I am here to walk alongside you every step of the way! Together, we can build insight, develop effective coping strategies, and create meaningful change that supports the life that you want to live. I look forward to connecting with you and supporting you on your path toward healing!

My approach centers on building the relationship between your thoughts, feelings and behaviors through intentional awareness of how this internal dialogue impacts anxiety, depression, and mood stability. Many of my clients come to therapy struggling with persistent self-doubt, critical inner narratives, as well as the weight of expectations around identity, achievement, and emotional expression. These expectations can distort our sense of self worth, making it challenging to define and meet important self-growth goals. Together, we can work to intuitively explore what may be contributing to these challenges, current belief systems and behavioral patterns. I value a conversational approach to therapy, where you can feel open in expressing your thoughts, concerns and internal narratives in order to ultimately choose if they are still serving you or it may be time for change. How we speak to ourselves matters; it not only affects our mood but also our motivation, behavior, and ability to connect with others. When we cultivate an intentional internal dialogue that aligns with our values we can begin to unlock a greater sense of autonomy and capability. This process leads to lessened anxiety, greater self confidence and acceptance.

I work mainly with young adults (18-40) who may be dealing with mental health challenges that include ADHD, anxiety and depression. Most of my clients face a build-up of stress related to identity, relationships, school or career. I help clients build positive and healthy mental health practices into their lives.

That question led me into forensic psychology, where I spent 10 years treating sexual offenders, individuals widely despised by society. Over time, I realized that preventing future harm required helping offenders understand the origins of their actions. Few psychologists—especially survivors who fully grasp the impact—choose this path. But I knew that without effective treatment, the cycle continues. My mission became clear: NO MORE VICTIMS. ______ Holly A. Silva, Psy.D. Licensed Clinical Psychologist CT | NY | VA 📞 860-222-4211 📧 drhollysilva@gmail.com
