    For those who may not know how much Dr Varshney cares about her patients; I lost my close family member recently and the moment Dr Varshney heard about it she reached out right away late in the evening to offer her condolences & support. Her comforting words meant a world to me and I will never forget her kind gesture. Few days later I had very good session with her and I left feeling at peace, Thanks to her encouraging words and kindness.. .

    Very trustworthy.
    Verified patient
    She really listened and got right down to the heart of the problem. Trust is an important part of a relationship with a therapist and I developed trust with her within 10 minutes. Not easy for an agoraphobe. If it is hard for you to develop trust with people give this doctor a chance.
    Verified patient
    Dr. Varshney is always available if needed, amazing easy to schedule with and very knowledgeable about her field. She takes extra time when needed to make sure you understand the reasoning and science behind her diagnosis and treatment plan and recommendations. I have benefited so much from working with Dr. Varshney and trust her enough that I have even recommended family members see her. I highly recommend her to anyone who feels stuck or unheard with other psychiatrists or if you have tried 'everything' without anything working.
    It is hard to describe the experience in few words... but she has such a positive aura & energy around her, very calming effect on me and it carries long time forward... she 's wise beyond her years... I recommend seeing her especially during these challenging times;she is able to help restoring faith in yourself and doesn't hesitate to kick your butt a bit if she feels it is needed to get you back on the right track, honest people like her are 1 in a million nowadays, very lovable and caring person, her style works for me for sure..
    Loved every minute of the appointment; no rush, just a peaceful feeling after good conversation with her, I can't ask for anything more.
