Therapists in Ventura, CA

If you don't like the road you're walking, let's pave a new one together! I work with women, young adults, and teens who are having difficulty maneuvering through life changes to help them achieve the life they envision. Together, we work on issues surrounding anxiety, self-esteem, depression, and outside pressures from society, family, culture, media and more. I approach my clients with a compassionate, direct, and non-judgmental lens. I am relatable and always honest. My clients learn to embrace confidence, be more assertive, manage emotions and relationships, and succeed in academics, career, and intimate relationships.

I am a highly trained, seasoned therapist in adolescent, emerging adult, and adult mental health across the lifespan. Areas of focus include college students, physicians, lawyers and other professionals in high stress careers, reproductive psychology and parent coaching. My therapeutic approach is solution focused, strengths based and skills oriented, viewed through a systemic & culturally responsive lens. Expertly and gently, I empower you with healthy coping skills starting with the very first session, so you can begin to find relief right away.

Hi! I'm Razdeep, South Asian therapist providing therapy in California. I work with heart-centered, sensitive, creative, or highly empathic teen and adult individuals who are experiencing stress, life transitions, anxiety, trauma, or struggling with ADHD symptoms. As a sensitive soul, your ability to feel so deeply is your greatest gift and superpower. Even though it may feel like a burden at times, please know that this is what makes you such a warm and wonderful. I invite you to unfasten your burdens and know it’s safe to take a deep breath. In therapy sessions with me, you will be seen and you are warmly welcomed to just BE.

Are you a South Asian woman that struggles with balancing your OWN identity vs. your cultural identity? Do you always feel like you have to live up to societal pressures and cultural expectations? Is your inner voice constantly reminding you how afraid you are of making your own decisions about your life? Do you find yourself feeling guilty about wanting to do something for yourself? Though traditions are important and hold value within the South Asian culture, you ARE allowed to pick and choose what aligns with you. If you're struggling with being your authentic self, then you've come to the the right place.

This may not be an easy time in your life and I respect your courage to reach out for help. Hiding fear of failure or family pressure to be perfect and make it look effortless is a daily struggle. I know you can be overwhelmed. Frustrated and angry. I have lived it and have decades of experience. After facing the pressure from parents, peers, or yourself, you need a place to sort out who you are and how you fit into these pieces. You may be looking for a safe place to work through your challenges, such as when you are experiencing anxiety or depression, or even a unique cultural experience that you feel nobody understands.

I'M NOT good enough, I'M NOT lovable, & I'M not WORTHY! Sound familiar? Does it look "PERFECT" on the outside but you struggle internally? Does something feel off even though it seems life is all together? We live in a fast-paced world. The expectation is for us to have everything together: the perfect relationship, job, home, friends, body, high self-esteem, and social media life. - - - - - - - - - - - - The reality is, we have real emotions, feelings, and life challenges. Even the strongest of us need some support in forcing our inner self-sabotaging critic to sashay away. Together, let's create the life you've always wanted.
