Sharmishtha Gupta
Counsellor
Are you feeling lost, confused, or isolated in a world that doesn’t quite understand who you are or what box to put you in? Do you struggle with self-esteem, manifesting as a self-critical voice, perfectionistic drive, or a feeling that you’re never quite good enough? Have you experienced frequent changes in relationships, schools, or homes due to your cultural background?
I specialize in supporting high-achieving individuals and Third-Culture Kids in managing stress and anxiety, improving self-esteem, processing grief, understanding and healing from past traumas, and navigating relationship difficulties.
As a culturally sensitive and psychodynamically oriented therapist, I understand the complexities of exploring your identity as it relates to race, ethnicity, gender, sexuality, and culture, and how these may be impacted by systems of oppression. I offer a compassionate, non-judgmental space where you can safely explore your thoughts and feelings.
My personal experiences have inspired my calling to help individuals navigate their unique challenges around identity, assimilation, and interpersonal communication. In working with me, you’ll find a comfortable space to explore and deepen self-awareness and improve your mental well-being. You deserve to be truly understood and supported.
