Ashwini Gupta, LMFT

Therapy

Namaste, I'm Ashwini Gupta. For over 20 years, I've helped people break free from anxiety, depression, trauma, and the relationships and transitions that keep them stuck. My work blends the science of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy with the ancient wisdom of Vedanta and mindfulness — so you don't just manage symptoms, you reconnect with what matters and build a life that actually feels like yours. Beyond traditional therapy, my private practice includes shamanic work, animal communication, and soul-level intuitive channeling. This deeper dimension shapes everything I do: you get a therapist who is fully present, deeply attuned, and grounded in something bigger than technique. Ready to stop coping and start living? Let's talk.
