A Space for you to be you

Culturally responsive therapy services for adults and couples in Minnesota and online nationwide

Do you find yourself struggling to connect with others and maintain healthy relationships?

Perhaps you feel like you have to hide parts of who you are to fit in the world around you.

Or maybe, therapy has traditionally seemed stuffy, out-of-touch, or taboo to you?

 

At Asha Mental Health, we create a safe, accepting, and judgement free space for you to explore what matters most to you.

We honor each individual’s background, values, belief systems, and lived experiences as we walk alongside you in creating the authentic and fulfilling life you desire.

Hi, I’m Priyanka

Psychologist, coffee lover, and Indian American woman (she/her)

I love working with adults and couples, and feel honored to help those who are struggling within their relationships or managing life transitions. I do my best to understand each person fully within their context, and make space for exploring how culture, religion, race, background, sexual orientation, and other factors impact how each of us experiences the world. I also believe wholeheartedly that everything we struggle with, every pattern or behavior we have that is currently not working for us, started somewhere helpful. I work with you to help you understand what you need and how to get those needs met in a more effective, satisfying way.

Individual Therapy

At Asha Mental Health, individual therapy is a collaborative process between you and your therapist, tailored to your unique needs and goals. Through compassionate and culturally-responsive therapy, we empower you to navigate life's challenges and cultivate a greater sense of self-awareness, personal growth, and overall well-being.

Couples Therapy

Our couples therapy approach is designed to help you and your partner strengthen your relationship, improve communication, and resolve conflicts. Our therapists provide a safe and non-judgmental space for you to explore your emotions and work collaboratively towards shared goals, while respecting and honoring your cultural backgrounds and values.

Adult ADHD & Autism Testing

Our ADHD and Autism testing is conducted by licensed mental health professionals with expertise in adult ADHD and Autism diagnosis and treatment. Through a comprehensive assessment process, we provide accurate, culturally-sensitive, and neurodiversity-affirming evaluations that can help you or your loved ones better understand their symptoms, strengths, and challenges. At the end of the testing process, you should have a better understanding of how you work and what you need to thrive. Testing is only available for adults at this time.

We believe that therapy should be accessible, approachable, and tailored to you.

We understand that reaching out to someone new for therapy can be intimidating. Maybe your family has never approved of therapy, or maybe you’ve had therapy experiences in the past that left you feeling misunderstood and rejected. We value honoring everyone, ourselves included, as individuals worthy of a safe space designed for vulnerability and authenticity. This means we show up with humor, flaws, ideas, personalities, and backgrounds of our own, and we welcome everyone’s unique expression of what is most important to them. We do not impose our values or expectations on others, but instead partner with you in identifying what goals are most important to you. There is no one-size-fits-all approach to being human. We look forward to meeting you right where you are.
