Samiksha has been my therapist for an over a year now. I met her during one of the hardest periods of my life. I was navigating the aftermath of abuse, feeling alone as a student in the U.S., and trying to make sense of emotions that felt overwhelming.
She has supported me with patience, kindness, and genuineness . I appreciate that she is both receptive and perceptive. She listens with care, but also gently challenges me when I need it. Therapy with her has felt safe, collaborative, and grounding. I always leave feeling empowered.
Working with Samiksha has helped me see myself as more than what I have been through. I am extremely grateful for her care and the growth she has helped me find.

I've had multiple sessions with Samiksha ma'am last year as well and the one thing that always stood up to me was how she was always able to identify the key factor/reason of the issue. Even if it took a couple of tries, she always patiently waited and even gave different perspectives to my issues which gave me clarity. I thank her for the willingness to always help and will always feel relieved knowing that I can share my issues comfortably again.

Samiksha was really easy to talk to. She understood the problems I had and got to the root of the cause of it. Made me understand and see things that I have been over looking and explained the trauma that unfolded because of the incidents that happened recently.
She helped me navigate things for me personally and with my family too. She helped untangle a lot of issues and worked as a mediator too whenever needed. I feel better and got the time and opportunity to understand what I need to do and how I need to move forward.
She is definitely a go-to person. Really happy with the service she provided. It didn’t feel just like a service. She was like a friend.

We had a very positive experience with Samiksha ma'am. She has been extremely supportive in helping my daughter manage her health anxiety through online sessions. Her approach is patient and understanding.
What truly stands out is her availability. She is always accessible whenever my daughter needs help, even over phone calls. This constant support has made my daughter feel safe and reassured. Which has significantly improved her focus on academics and overall well-being.
I highly recommend her to any parent looking for a compassionate and reliable therapist for their child.** * *

I reached out to Samiksha at a time when I was struggling with severe anxiety and depression, and working with her has been one of the most grounding decisions I’ve made.
She creates a genuinely safe and non-judgmental space, which meant a lot to me, especially after having had difficult experiences with therapists in the past. With her, I never felt judged, rushed, or dismissed.
What I really appreciate is how she lets me guide the flow of therapy. She has never pressured me to talk about anything I’m not ready for, and that sense of control made it much easier to open up over time. She focuses on her role as a therapist without any moral policing, which, unfortunately, can be quite common.
I’ve been in therapy with her for the past two years, and in that time, I’ve been able to understand many of my patterns and learn how to manage my anxiety much better. It’s been a steady, meaningful process, and I genuinely feel more equipped to handle things now.
I’m really grateful for the support and space she’s provided.

I’m really grateful for the support and guidance I received during therapy. Samiksha helped me understand my anxiety better and, more importantly, helped me reduce the fear I had around anxiety itself.
Through our sessions, I learned healthier ways to cope with anxious thoughts and emotions, and I now feel more aware, calm, and in control in situations that used to overwhelm me. Her patience, reassurance, and practical approach made a big difference in my journey.

Ms. Manchanda is a lovely therapist. Things she points out and explains help me understand myself better. She is also very patient, friendly and regularly checks in to confirm the appointment. This is very helpful as it keeps me on track with not missing or forgetting about sessions. She also guides me to help express myself more freely

she beautifully balances the classic tightrope of offering validation, and actionable solutions, and adapts her approach by proactively seeking feedback from her clients. Just after a couple of sessions, you will clearly see measurable progress.
I’ve referred her to 4 people, and every single one of them has been impressed by how much Samiksha has positively influenced their lives.
