About Ashwini
Ashwini Gupta is an LMFT (Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist) with 20 years of clinical experience based in California. She works with adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship and intimacy concerns, mood struggles, and transitions in work or life. She also lists family of origin issues, grief, parenting strains, and substance-related concerns among her areas of focus. Sessions are offered in English, Hindi, and Tamil, and she accepts international clients.
Ashwini combines evidence-informed therapies with reflective and meaning-focused work. In sessions she uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and cognitive-behavioral tools to help people notice unhelpful thinking and try small behavior changes. Attachment-based ideas are used to look at early relationship patterns and how they show up now. She also weaves in existential questions about purpose and values when those are relevant.
Her approach tends to be conversational and practical. People work on clearer communication, setting boundaries, and steps to manage anxiety or mood shifts. For relationship or intimacy concerns she helps individuals identify interaction patterns and experiment with different responses.
When family of origin issues come up, she focuses on recognizing repeated roles and expectations from childhood and how they affect adult relationships. She supports work on forgiveness, letting go of old scripts, and building more chosen ways of relating.
Ashwini notes that she also engages with spiritual and intuitive practices in a separate part of her work. Those offerings are distinct from the therapy she provides and can influence the tone of conversations when clients bring spiritual questions. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the site.
How her approaches translate to online work
Ashwini draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-Based Therapy as core ways of working in sessions. ACT helps people notice rigid thoughts and choose actions that reflect their values, which can make daily choices feel more doable. Attachment-based work looks at how early relationship patterns influence current reactions and helps people practice new ways of relating in real life.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. She will discuss different methods with clients and decide collaboratively which tools to try based on the client's goals, comfort, and preferences.
Confirm the current session options before booking, as specific formats are not listed here. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Some formats require less bandwidth or let people choose whether to use video. These practical features can help therapy fit into everyday life while focusing on values, communication patterns, and concrete behavior changes.
