Therapy that honors where you come from- and helps you grow into who you want to be.
YOU DON’T HAVE TO CARRY THIS ALONE.
Hi, I'm Dr. Krishna Desai
I am a licensed psychologist offering telehealth therapy across approximately 42 states.
I work with adults, teens, and preteens navigating anxiety, depression, complex trauma, and grief — with a particular dedication to the South Asian community and the unique pressures that come with living between cultures.
Whether you're holding the weight of family expectations, processing a loss, working through the aftermath of trauma, or simply feeling like something is off — this is a space where you can be honest, messy, and real.

What makes this space different
Trauma & Grief/Loss
I have advanced training in complex trauma and grief and loss, and I bring an evidence based, compassionate approach to South Asian therapy and trauma counseling online. My work is grounded and practical rather than clinical and cold, built specifically for clients navigating grief, loss, and the lasting effects of trauma.
Culturally Informed
As a South Asian psychologist, I understand the cultural nuances many clients carry into therapy, the pressure to appear fine, the stigma around mental health, and the complexity of identity between two worlds. Working with a culturally informed therapist means you won't have to explain your background before we get to the real work.
Telehealth
As a PSYPACT member, I provide telehealth therapy and online counseling to clients across 42 states, with no commute and no waiting room. Sessions happen from wherever you feel most comfortable, through a private, secure connection built for real progress.
I offer a free 15-minute consultation so we can see if we're a good fit — no commitment, no pressure.
