About me

Hi there, I’m Simran!

I work at the intersection of mental health, feminism, and intersectional identity as a minority woman myself — which shapes how I show up for my clients. My goal is to create a space where individuals, couples, and groups of all backgrounds and identities feel genuinely seen, through culturally responsive and LGBTQI+ affirming care.

My approach is rooted in a multicultural lens and a belief that therapy should be a collaborative journey toward wellness — one that equips you with real, usable skills for everyday life, not just insight for its own sake. I take a holistic view of healing, weaving in mindfulness and meditation alongside evidence-based modalities. My core training is in humanistic and relational-cultural theory, and I draw on narrative therapy, CBT, DBT, interpersonal and social rhythm therapy, and trauma-informed care depending on what each client needs.

I hold a Master’s in Counseling for Mental Health and Wellness from New York University. Before joining City Therapy, I practiced at a private group practice in Brooklyn, working with a diverse population of adult clients. I offer sessions in English, Hindi, and Gujarati.

Therapy, to me, is about co-creating change that lasts well beyond our sessions together — growth that shows up in your relationships, your sense of self, and how you move through the world.

If this feels like the right fit, I’d love to connect. Schedule an appointment to get started, or reach out at info@saharawellnessco.com with any questions — I look forward to meeting you.
