Getting to know Samah Nanda
I specialize in working with adults navigating familial conflict, low self-esteem, anxiety, relationship distress, and depression stemming from childhood trauma and cultural complexities. I also have an interest in working with immigrant professionals and students, building lives across cultures, and balancing dual identities. Many clients feel stuck, overwhelmed, or emotionally drained, struggling to cope with daily challenges, work demands, or relationship stress. Therapy focuses on practical strategies that make a real difference in everyday life.
My approach is trauma-informed, integrative, and goal-oriented. I use evidence-based therapies including CBT, DBT skills, ACT, and TF-CBT, combined with supportive, person-centered guidance. Sessions help clients understand patterns, build coping skills, improve emotional regulation, and create strategies that can be applied in daily life. I heavily focus on drawing parallels between childhood experiences and how they show up in our adult selves.
Telehealth therapy is available in English and Hindi, with flexible scheduling to fit your needs.
What should a new client know about working with you?
I offer compassionate therapy and counseling for individuals seeking mental health support. In our sessions, we focus on managing anxiety, depression, stress, and emotional challenges while promoting personal growth and coping skills.
I provide a safe, confidential space where you can set goals, work through difficulties, and develop practical strategies for lasting well-being. Each session is tailored to your unique needs, whether you’re looking for individual therapy, stress relief, or support for overall mental and emotional health.
What is your typical process for working with clients?
Once you book your appointment, I will personally reach out to schedule an initial consultation. During this consult, we’ll discuss your mental health needs and goals, and develop a personalized plan to support your emotional wellness, coping strategies, and overall well-being.
I look forward to meeting you and guiding your journey toward better mental health.

Finding a therapist you can trust is hard, but Samah made it easy. After several months of work together, I can say that her approach is deeply compassionate and genuinely non-judgmental. I felt an immediate sense of safety in our very first session.
