About Hajra
Hajra Munir is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in New York with four years of clinical experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, family problems, trauma and abuse, and self-esteem concerns. Hajra often supports young adults wrestling with identity, life direction, and the pressures of early adulthood.
She uses an evidence-based therapeutic approach and aims to be culturally responsive and affirming in sessions. That means she pays attention to how culture and identity shape feelings, choices, and what healing looks like for each person. Sessions focus on practical skills and clearer understanding rather than abstract theory.
Hajra helps people talk through attachment patterns, codependency, and communication problems. She also supports those processing grief, forgiveness, and past sexual assault or abuse. Conversations often include strategies to reduce panic and social anxiety and to manage mood shifts.
When family history or immigration issues matter, she looks at how those experiences affect current relationships and choices. She also addresses caregiver stress, body image, guilt and shame, and feelings of isolation or being stuck. The work mixes emotional processing with concrete steps for day-to-day life.
Sessions are collaborative and task-oriented. Hajra encourages people to practice new skills between meetings and to check progress over time. She offers therapy in English and Urdu and works with adult clients based in New York.
