At Empathy Therapy, we start with something simple, but powerful: we listen.

Have you ever stood in the forest—away from people, away from cars—and just listened?
There’s a kind of stillness that can only be found in those quiet spaces. At Empathy Therapy, we try to create that same feeling when you begin to share your story: calm, open, grounded, and uninterrupted.
We start with something simple, but powerful: we listen.
Sharing your story—whether it’s filled with clarity or confusion, pain or hope—is one of the most meaningful parts of the healing process. When you speak your experience aloud and know someone is truly hearing you, something begins to shift. That’s where growth lives. That’s where healing begins.
You Deserve to Be Seen and Heard
Many people come to therapy wondering if their story is “too much” or “not enough.” But there’s no such thing. Whether you’re navigating anxiety, grief, stress, burnout, identity shifts, or something harder to name, your lived experience matters. It deserves space. It deserves care.
Listening Is Active
At Empathy Therapy, we don’t just listen passively—we reflect, connect, and stay present with you. Dr. Chofla is a psychiatrist who also provides talk therapy, which means you don’t have to separate the emotional from the medical. You can share your story with one provider who sees the whole picture.
No One-Size-Fits-All
Yes, there may be forms, questionnaires, or structured tools to help us understand where you’re starting—but there’s no single script. At Empathy Therapy, your story guides your care. We listen closely and shape our approach based on what matters most to you. This is not a one-size-fits-all experience—it’s a collaboration rooted in empathy and respect.
Ready When You Are
Whether you’re reaching out for the first time or returning after time away, know this: your story matters. You don’t have to make it tidy or polished. You just have to begin.
We’re here to listen.
