Meet the Facilitators

Chandni Bhatia, M.S., LPC, LCPC, NCC, CMHIMP, SEP is an integrative generational trauma therapist with more than 10 years of clinical experience and two decades of involvement in diversity, equity, and inclusion spaces. A graduate of Johns Hopkins University, she is licensed in Virginia and Maryland and specializes in developmental, attachment, intergenerational, migration-related, and systemic trauma for adults.

Her work brings together Somatic Experiencing, IFS-informed parts work, mindfulness, Family Constellations, cognitive behavioral approaches, and nutrition-informed mental health care within a culturally responsive and nervous-system-informed framework. Chandni is especially interested in the ways family roles, culture, migration, identity, belonging, and inherited survival patterns shape how people learn to relate to themselves and to others.

As the eldest daughter of immigrants and a recovering high-achiever, Chandni brings a personal understanding of the pressures that can come with responsibility, achievement, caretaking, and being the one who is expected to hold things together. Her clinical and professional work has long been grounded in the belief that healing cannot be separated from the cultural, relational, and systemic contexts in which people live.

At the heart of Chandni’s approach is a belief that meaningful healing happens when people are truly witnessed — not simply understood intellectually, but seen in the fullness of who they are and what has shaped them. She believes we come into this life not only to heal and evolve, but also to share our gifts, deepen our connection to ourselves and one another, and live with greater vitality.

Through thoughtful, embodied, and relational work, Chandni aims to help people move beyond simply surviving or functioning well on the outside and toward lives that feel more grounded, connected, purposeful, and vibrant.
