Over 12 years of experience in providing individual,couples,and family therapy services.

Depending on your motivation this process can be short or long. It all depends on how much you want to live a productive Life. I also provide supervision to APCC's.

We all try to cope with our wounds & stresses in the best way we can. Complex life experiences teach us complex ways to cope by perhaps— suppressing our feelings, staying hidden to avoid unwanted attention or punishment, acting out to explain the inexplicable, performing exceptionally & anxiously well to stand out or gain approval, or taking care of others at the expense of ourselves to compensate for our family legacies & cultural dynamics. Whatever the nature and range of your experiences, you may be struggling with your past and how it impacts your present, your work, your relationship with yourself, loved ones, & the world.

Hi! I'm Razdeep, South Asian therapist providing therapy in California. I work with heart-centered, sensitive, creative, or highly empathic teen and adult individuals who are experiencing stress, life transitions, anxiety, trauma, or struggling with ADHD symptoms. As a sensitive soul, your ability to feel so deeply is your greatest gift and superpower. Even though it may feel like a burden at times, please know that this is what makes you such a warm and wonderful. I invite you to unfasten your burdens and know it’s safe to take a deep breath. In therapy sessions with me, you will be seen and you are warmly welcomed to just BE.

I have worked for several years with difficulties clients encounter in their daily lives including: anxiety, relationship issues, racing thoughts, lack of motivation, sleep disruption, and setting boundaries in important life relationships. I work with you to identify patterns in your relationships that you would like to change. The goal is that with therapy, I can help you create and nourish relationships that meet your personal needs and cultivate a life and experiences that meet your expectations.

My goal as a therapist is to guide clients to a better understanding of themselves. I work with individuals, couples, & families and provide a safe, judgement free, welcoming space to help clients navigate the various challenges in life. I strive to create an empowering environment which helps clients build healthy coping skills, develop independence, and resolve past issues and trauma through identifying patterns by assigning homework designed specifically for the client’s needs.

At Human, my focus is to create a space where my clients feel safe and welcome with all their strengths and weakness and all their experiences - a space where they can just 'be'. Life brings us all kinds of experiences and some of those can be hard to cope with as is. My goal is to help you find the strength you already have within to learn and grow from these experiences as you continue to process them.

I am a South Asian Immigrant based in Southern California. I work with individuals of all ages and life stages who are experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, facing relationship issues, and going through life transitions. My experience is widely with the Muslim-American community and the the unique challenges that come with it.

Thank you so much for taking the time to read this bio. I want to first congratulate in you on taking a step of putting yourself first. Taking that first step could have many mixed feelings of excitement, fear and uncertainty. I am here to be a support system for your self growth and development. Many things in life can occur which can hinder our growth. Such events can be disheartening (e.g. divorce, death of a loved one, stress in school or work, etc.) or even events that are normally viewed as positive (e.g. recently getting married, moving in together, getting a new job or promotion, children, etc).

Are you happy? You certainly deserve to be. If your past and/or current life events prevent you from living the life you want, reach out to us today and let's see if we can help. We are a group practice comprised of both licensed clinicians and associates with eclectic backgrounds. We're dedicated to helping the lives of those in our community. We work with adolescents (12+), adults, and those in the LGBT community too, and we work with many different mental health issues. Our style is warm, inviting, collaborative, and judgement free. 100% virtual. We accept medi-cal that's managed by MHN/Healthnet but no other medi-cal plan.

At times we can feel so overwhelmed by emotions that our natural instinct is to simply shut down. We feel no one understands us and that if we tell someones they will either dismiss it, tell us " just get over it," "why don't you just look at the bright side." Other times, we don’t want to share what we are feeling because we do not want to burden those close to us. This only further validates either that what we are feeling is not important and that nobody cares. When we don’t acknowledge or process the pain we feel, our overwhelmed self may lash out or act in a behavior that is either destructive towards the self or others.

I specialize in evidence-based treatments for children, teens, and young adults with anxiety, OCD, depression, trauma, eating disorders, and behavior problems. I have extensive experience working with clients from diverse, multicultural backgrounds. I strive to provide therapy that is grounded in science, while honoring the unique needs of each individual. My approach is deeply relational, and I aim to create a safe, non-judgmental space for you to understand your struggles and learn new tools. I am passionate about empowering clients to face their fears, change unhelpful patterns, heal from trauma, and develop more self-compassion.

Therapy is successful when you have a therapist who understands you AND knows how to help you. I work with men and women navigating relationships, anxiety/depression, major life transitions, and family conflicts, all while trying to integrate two very different cultures – the one we’re born into and the one we’re living in. As a South Asian woman and a therapist for over 7 years, I understand how culture plays a huge role in our unique challenges and expectations.
