Hi, I’m Swapomthi. Beginning therapy can feel like a leap into the unknown,but it can also be one of the most meaningful steps you take toward healing and growth. I believe that therapy is not about “fixing” you, it’s about walking with you as you rediscover your own strength, clarity, and balance.
I’m an LPC with years of experience supporting individuals, couples, and families through life’s many transitions. I’m also a San Antonio native, mother of three, first-generation American, and someone who has known loss,and all of those roles have shaped how I show up in the therapy room: grounded, compassionate and real.

Life can feel overwhelming at times, but you don’t have to navigate it alone. As the daughter of immigrant parents, I understand the complexities of intergenerational trauma. The weight of cultural and societal expectations can take a toll on one’s mental health. Family & religious pressure can also negatively affect our identity and self-perception. I believe that no matter what our past has given us or what our future holds, we are capable of working through our life challenges. I help clients embrace their authentic selves while navigating intergenerational trauma, perfectionism, family conflict, & life transitions like divorce.

I feel that clients shouldn’t have to be in therapy forever. I’ve come to appreciate the wisdom of the body and its miraculous ability to heal. For this reason, I practice largely with Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR). This approach is designed to help you process traumatic memories, alleviate distress, and breathe EASY again. Plainly stated, it calms the emotional pain and can help you regain the capacity to make sense of things again.

You may appear capable and put-together on the outside while privately feeling anxious, overwhelmed, or alone. Many of my clients are thoughtful, responsible adults who have spent years caring for others, over-functioning, or minimizing their own needs. They often feel stuck in repeating relationship patterns, people-pleasing, emotional exhaustion, or persistent anxiety despite trying hard to cope. You may be highly self-aware, still feel pulled into the same dynamics, unsure how to change them. If you’ve done therapy before but sense something deeper remains unresolved, you may be ready for a more focused trauma-informed approach.

FAQ - About Hindu Counseling
What can a Hindu therapist help with?
Hindu therapists are licensed mental health professionals who are familiar with Hindu beliefs, values, and culture. Like other licensed therapists, Hindu therapists can help with concerns such as anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, relationship challenges, life transitions, and family conflict. However, a therapist who shares your faith may be especially helpful if you want to explore how faith and spirituality impact your life and overall mental health. A Hindu therapist can also support concerns that intersect with religion or culture, such as identity, belonging, intergenerational conflict, marriage expectations, or sexuality.
How does Hindu faith and culture shape the therapy experience?
A therapist who understands Hindu beliefs and cultural practices may be better able to recognize how spirituality, religion, or community expectations impact your life. This shared understanding can help you feel more comfortable and less burdened by the need to explain your background. It may also strengthen the therapeutic alliance, which refers to the working relationship between you and your therapist and is tied to positive therapy outcomes. At the same time, you and your therapist do not need to share the same faith to work together effectively. Many therapists who are not Hindu can still provide culturally responsive care if they approach your beliefs and practices with respect and humility, rather than making assumptions or dismissing the role of faith.
How can a Hindu therapist support family therapy?
Hindu therapy can often include family therapy, which may involve parents, children, or extended family members. These sessions may include discussion of how family expectations, cultural traditions, and religious practices shape family dynamics. For example, a therapist might help a family navigate differing expectations around marriage, caregiving, or participation in religious events. Depending on your family’s preferences, a Hindu therapist may incorporate faith-informed reflection alongside other evidence-based approaches, such as communication skills, emotional regulation strategies, and conflict-resolution techniques.
How might I inquire about a therapist's experience working with Hindu clients?
If faith or cultural background is important to you in therapy, it can be helpful to ask a prospective therapist whether they have experience working with Hindu clients. In initial conversations with potential therapists, you might ask questions such as, “Have you worked with Hindu clients before?” or “How do you approach conversations about faith and cultural identity in therapy?” As sessions begin, it can be helpful to notice how the therapist responds to your concerns. A good therapist should respond with respect, curiosity, and cultural humility. If you feel dismissed, misunderstood, or find yourself having to explain your beliefs or cultural context constantly, it may be worth considering another therapist.
Who is included in Psychology Today's directory of Hindu therapists?
The directory of Hindu therapists includes therapists who have shared their faith background in their profiles or therapists who indicate that they have extensive experience working with Hindu clients or communities, regardless of their own background or religious affiliation. Not all therapists choose to disclose this information on their profile, and these individuals would not appear in search results for this reason.
