For those of us who identify as Indian, South Asian, or part of the Indian Diaspora, we face a complicated balancing act of bridging space between different groups.

Hi, I’m Kavita. I work with adults and couples – including interracial or multi-heritage couples, who are deep thinkers looking for a therapist with cultural intelligence and compassion of one who’s been there. The majority of my clients recently immigrated to the US or are first- and second-generation Americans. I have openings for new clients throughout California. Contact me for a free, confidential phone consultation. Get started by filling out this short form.

As an Indian immigrant and woman, I have experienced the struggle of fitting-in, straddling the space between two cultures, marginalization, finding community, and discovering my voice and identity. Clients appreciate my knowledge and understanding of their cultural context and their experience of navigating and integrating multiple cultural identities and norms. I am fluent in conversational Hindi/Urdu and have conducted therapy in Hindi with several South Asian clients. Learn more about me.
