Simran values the importance of the therapeutic relationship and views therapy as a
collaborative journey. She offers a warm and compassionate approach combined with thoughtful
guidance to help her clients achieve their goals.
Drawing on her education and diverse clinical experience, Simran’s theoretical
orientation is rooted in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which she enriches with trauma-
informed and relational perspectives. She recognizes the importance of a multicultural lens in
therapy, understanding that each client’s beliefs, values and behaviors are shaped by their
multiple intersecting identities.
Simran earned her Psy.D. in Clinical Psychology from The Chicago School of
Professional Psychology. Her clinical experiences include working with children and adults who
have experienced trauma, self-esteem issues, anxiety, and depression. Additionally, she holds a
master’s degree in Applied Behavioral Analysis and has experience working with children
presenting with developmental and behavioral concerns. Simran has also supported parents in addressing and managing their children’s challenging behaviors.
Beyond therapy, Simran is passionate about psychological assessment, with experience
conducting evaluations for both children and adults. Her holistic approach integrates knowledge,
skills, and empathy to help clients achieve meaningful and lasting change.
