Anisha is an in-network provider with: BCBS (including Blue Home/UNC Health Alliance), AETNA (including State Health Plan), and CIGNA/Evernorth.

Anisha Tyagi, LCSWA (she/her) provides individual and group psychotherapy for children and their caregivers, adolescents, and adults. She offers trauma-informed, LGBTQIA+-affirming, and disability-affirming therapy in both English and Hindi.

She believes emotional distress is often a sane reaction to the systemic oppression that marginalized peoples endure. And even so, therapy can be an essential tool to imagine and create new ways of living. Anisha facilitates a healing space that recognizes how individual and collective health are interconnected, and how we cannot affect one without addressing the others. 

Anisha is a graduate of Smith College (BA) and UNC Chapel Hill (MSW). She brings experience supporting adolescents in intensive outpatient settings, working with youth in schools, and integrating mindfulness into treatment of addiction behaviors (including smoking cessation). She is skilled in group and individual therapy, with particular interests in neurodivergence, family and relationship dynamics, minority stress, and chronic pain. She provides attachment based, insight-oriented approaches and play therapy, utilizing behavioral interventions (mindfulness, nervous system regulation skills, executive functioning support, etc) tailored to the individual.

As an immigrant and child of immigrants, Anisha has lived in the U.S., India, and Indonesia, experiences that enrich her clinical perspective and cultural sensitivity. Her work is grounded in authenticity, curiosity, and respect for each person’s unique story. Outside of therapy, she enjoys reading character-driven fiction, spending time in nature, learning new languages, and connecting with loved ones around the world.
