Simran Puri, LGPC
You might be the person everyone assumes has it together — while you're privately battling anxiety, overthinking, ADHD, or constant self-doubt. If you're tired of feeling stuck in your own head, you're not alone. I'm a counselor working with adults and young adults navigating life transitions, family expectations, and identity — often shaped by cultural values and intergenerational dynamics. Clients describe me as warm, direct, and nonjudgmental. Therapy with me is collaborative and practical: we'll explore what's contributing to your struggles, challenge unhelpful patterns, and build realistic tools you can actually use — in a space where you never have to over-explain your background.

How I Can
Support You
Where modern life meets modern therapy — calm, clear, and collaborative. I tailor each session to you, drawing from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), DBT, CBT, psychodynamic and interpersonal work, motivational interviewing, and culturally sensitive frameworks. Together we focus on building insight, strengthening coping skills, and finding balance between personal needs and cultural or familial expectations. Many of my clients are high-achievers privately struggling with perfectionism, people-pleasing, burnout, or social anxiety — and many simply feel overwhelmed or stuck, no diagnosis required.
