Naina Rana (LCSW)

Hi, I’m Naina Rana of Peakworks Counseling Center. I’m a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) with a deep commitment to helping individuals and couples navigate life’s challenges with compassion, clarity, and confidence. I have several years of experience working with adolescents, adults, and couples in both outpatient and private practice settings. I earned my Master’s in Social Work from Fordham University, and I’ve continued to deepen my clinical expertise through ongoing training in evidence-based and holistic approaches to mental health. I bring a unique perspective informed by both Eastern and Western philosophies, integrating clinical insight with cultural sensitivity and personal lived experience. I specialize in working with: Couples wanting to improve communication, intimacy, or rebuild trust Individuals navigating anxiety, depression, grief, or trauma Young adults and professionals facing identity, self-esteem, or life direction concerns People adjusting to new chapters—parenthood, career shifts, caregiving, loss, or chronic health needs As a woman and a wheelchair user, I deeply understand the importance of safety, advocacy, and being seen in all your complexity. Therapy with me is about building trust, embracing your strengths, and exploring the path that’s right for you—not what’s been prescribed by others. Let’s work together to uncover what’s getting in the way of your peace and potential—and take steps toward a life that truly works for you.
