With years of experience caring for patients, she is passionate about empowering individuals on their unique healing journeys.

In her practice, she prioritizes a safe and inclusive space where you can explore your challenges, find strength, and embrace your true potential. Dr. Sood's approach is rooted in compassion, cultural sensitivity, and evidence-based techniques tailored to your specific needs. Therapy is where you can say the things you don’t normally say aloud and practice the habits you want to build and use in your daily life. The therapeutic relationship is the safe space to learn and practice how to voice your needs, set boundaries, and own your power in your relationships.

Whether you're seeking support for trauma recovery, navigating life as an immigrant, facing perinatal or postpartum concerns, or dealing with infertility or pregnancy loss, she is here to guide you. Together, you will work towards healing, resilience, and personal growth.

If you resonate with Dr. Sood's approach and are ready to embark on a transformative journey, please don't hesitate to schedule a consultation. Please note that, at this time, Dr. Sood only offers online sessions and is not available for morning or weekend hours.
