More about Namita

  • 13 years' experience
  • Female
  • LMFT

I integrate Eastern and Western psychotherapeutic traditions to help clients reconnect with themselves and deepen emotional awareness. I offer a warm, grounded, and collaborative space where healing unfolds through presence, safety, and compassion. Drawing from mindfulness, embodiment, and evidence-based practices, I support individuals navigating anxiety, life transitions, identity exploration, and relational challenges. I view therapy as a sacred, transformative process that invites stillness, insight, and meaningful growth.
