I’m Sarina Gupta, LCSW, a licensed clinical social worker providing therapy in New Jersey for adolescents and adults. I specialize in trauma, anxiety, depression, and ADHD/ADD, and I offer culturally responsive therapy with a deep commitment to supporting individuals from South Asian communities.
I earned my Bachelor’s degree in Psychology from The College of New Jersey and my Master of Social Work from NYU’s Silver School of Social Work. My approach to therapy is warm, collaborative, and grounded in evidence-based care. I believe healing happens when you feel safe, respected, and truly understood — and when therapy honors your lived experience, values, and cultural identity.
As a South Asian therapist in New Jersey, I understand how culture, family expectations, and intergenerational experiences can shape emotional well-being. Many clients I work with carry stress related to identity, relationships, trauma, anxiety, or depression, often while balancing cultural norms that don’t always leave space for vulnerability. I strive to create a gentle, non-judgmental space where you can explore these experiences openly and at your own pace.
My background in community mental health has allowed me to work closely with individuals navigating complex family dynamics, life transitions, and emotional overwhelm. I adapt therapy to meet you where you are, honoring both your personal story and your cultural context so the work feels meaningful and supportive. I am deeply committed to inclusive, trauma-informed care and to walking alongside clients across New Jersey as they move toward healing, clarity, and growth.
If you are looking for a South Asian therapist in New Jersey who offers compassionate, culturally sensitive therapy, I would be honored to support you.
