Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC)
My Approach
Would you like to feel at peace with yourself, no matter what life throws your way? Are you ready to make meaningful changes but aren’t sure where to begin? Therapy with me can help you build clarity, resilience, and lasting direction. My approach combines practical, solution-focused strategies with relationally-focused therapies. I integrate experiential modalities like Internal Family Systems (IFS) and Somatic Experiencing (SE) with cognitive and neurobiological insights. As a result, progress can be felt quickly and efficiently, whether you are working on healing trauma, strengthening relationships, navigating a transition or getting clear on your personal values and purpose. I emphasize creating safety and security from within by holding space for my clients and serving as a guide on their journey. I work well with high performing individuals such as teachers, coaches, first responders, creatives and entrepreneurs. I also work with couples on strengthening communication and offer premarital counseling. I focus on collaborative healing from within and through relationships with others. I enjoy witnessing client’s uncover internal peace, passion and purpose as they walk their path of life. Therapy with me will result in strengthened relationships, increased clarity, living in alignment with purpose, and finding peace in the present moment. I am honored to walk alongside you on your journey of healing and self-discovery.

Mindfulness
Much of my work is centered on teaching mindfulness. Utilizing mindfulness is an important component of emotional intelligence, reduces stress on the nervous system, and increases resilience. In session, we may practice mindfulness while exploring emotions, sensations, and thoughts in your present moment. Using mindful attention, we’ll heal and release root stresses and outdated belief systems that have been hindering your growth. In addition, I enjoy using humor as we co-create novel experiences together. Humor and novelty in an open environment helps break outdated patterns and explore new ways of being, thinking, feeling, and choosing. Lastly, I always welcome my clients to explore their individual spirituality, and believe it is spirituality that ultimately drives us and sets the foundation for individual expression.
About Me
I earned a Bachelor of Science in Human Services from California State University, Fullerton and a Master of Arts in Counseling from Palo Alto University. During my undergraduate work, I had the unique experience of facilitating personal growth and exploration groups for students within the university. During graduate school, I had the honor of interning at Capital Area Counseling in Austin, where I provided counseling to individuals of various backgrounds and socioeconomic status. Here, I also facilitated a mindfulness group designed to introduce individuals to the practice of mindfulness in everyday living.
My work is inspired by my own gratitude for personal relationships and the meaning those have in my life. I am honored to walk alongside you and provide guidance on your journey of self-exploration and peace-seeking.
Client Testimonials
“As a first timer to therapy, Simran has blown away every expectation I had for a therapist and the amount of progress that would be possible within just the first year."
"Simran made me feel seen, while also doing a great job of nudging me towards more productive conversations with myself & my outlook on the world."
"It's easy to try new things when on the all-comforting therapist's couch, but Simran has gently and consistently supported integrating those practices and behaviors outside that safe environment"
