Testimonials

“Super nice and intelligent person who genuinely cares about the wellbeing of her clients.”

Kevin Carrico

LPC, NCC

“You are amazing at what you do! Every day you impact the life of so many people that are scared, lonely, angry, and confused. You give these people a purpose. Many of these people wouldn’t be alive if it wasn’t for you.”

Danielle Fitzhenry

LSW, Mental Health Clinician

“As a busy entrepreneur, and a mother of two teenage boys, there were lots of challenges. That’s when I consulted Suruchi to seek balance in both my family and professional life. Suruchi heared me with patient ears. She gave me strategies to manage different situations, and to actively self- reflect which immensely helped. I am grateful to Suruchi for making my life more fulfilling and beautiful.”

Garima Jain

LPT, CKPT Healing Handz Physical Therapy

"I have known Suruchi for the last 15 years. She has the ability to combine her formal training with her upbringing and life experiences to provide clear, down to earth insights into your own problems and issues. She makes you see things that have been right in front of your eyes and yet invisible. Her workshops inspire you to make a positive change in your life and provide you with the tools to do so.”

Dr. Shailendra Chopra

“I worked with Suruchi Saini for several years. She possesses wisdom and compassion for others which also helped me to have a better understanding of myself and my perception of the world. She is very inspirational to everyone who has been fortunate enough to have met her and/ or know her during their life journey.”

Joseph Hose

MA, Senior Mental Health Counselor

“Suruchi Saini has a unique set of values and experiences enabling her to relate to people on a deeper and most humble level. Working along her side, I have been fortunate to see her help people with non-intimidating interventions from the heart with clinical expertise. She continues to successfully bridge evidence based approaches with the most human ability to relate and heal. Simply, Suruchi Saini helps people grow healthier. I am very lucky to have been able to work side by side with her where she taught me how to help the WHOLE person."

Karina Kolemba

Mental Health Counselor, Yoga teacher

“I have had the pleasure of knowing Suruchi Saini for many years. I have known her through our work together on the advisory panel of NAMI/SAMHAJ and then through her significant contributions since she joined the Advisory panel of SAMHIN, South Asian Mental Health Initiative and Network. One can count on her dedication and diligence in all her efforts and pursuits. She has done a remarkable job in engaging the community and educating them on a variety of mental health issues e.g. stigma, holistic care and many other areas. I have also referred patients to her for treatment. I have had numerous positive responses about her effectiveness, sensitivity and caring for her patients. She is very prompt in her follow-through and returning calls from her patients. She is a caring, compassionate and a hardworking licensed professional counselor. Her biggest strength is probably her incorporating holistic health approach in her clinical practice and even including mindfulness training. Her approach is not compartmentalized or fragmented and it goes a long way in helping those suffering from stress and anxiety. It is admirable how she has woven this seamlessly in her clinical practice. We need more people like her in our field.”

Dr. Vasudev N. Makhija

MD, DLFAPA

By Clients

My name is Edward, I have been a patient of Suruchi for 2 years now. I can not understate just how much of a positive effect on my life her guidance has been. Suruchi has a gift for making you see your own problems from a different point of view and her counseling helps you to solve them with your own answers. She is ALWAYS concerned with my general health as well as my emotional and mental well-being. I could not have asked for a better therapist and I consider my self extremely lucky to be her patient. Three cheers for Suruchi Saini! HIP HIP HOORAY! HIP HIP HOORAY!! HIP HIP HOORAY!!!!”

Edward F

“My wife and I were introduced to Suruchi by a member of our church. We were told that Suruchi is very down to earth, and very easy to speak to. She has helped us (as a couple) to see the other side in our relationship. As a result of her counseling, our marriage has grown stronger and continues to do so day by day. Words cannot express how grateful I am to her for her help.”

Michele & Christian

My daughter Joan and I thoroughly enjoyed the Sundays spent with Suruchi Saini at the Mind Body sessions. We look forward to the next session in July. It was a most worthwhile experience.

Joan K

Suruchi has been our couples therapist for almost a year. We came to her with some struggles we have been dealing with as individuals and as a couple. Suruchi was able to help us unearth the real issues we wanted to overcome and helped us rediscover how much we value our relationship. She has helped us navigate difficult issues that stemmed beyond our relationship; she has helped us with our relationships with our family and friends as well. She has been able to help us to grow our confidence as young adults who are trying to find our places in our families and in each other lives as future life partners. She empowers us to consider all options and guides us to the best decisions for ourselves. She is kind, supportive and challenges us when need be. She gives us perspectives that we may not normally see and helps us to best understand difficult situations. Suruchi has definitely played a major part in helping us develop better communication skills and recognizing each other strengths. Our relationship is the strongest it’s ever been thanks to Suruchi.”

CM & MM

“You helped me come around to be ok with being me and who I am and deciding who I want to be that wanting things does not make me selfish, that being smart and wanting to use it doesn’t make me snobby that having standards and being choosy about the company I keep does not make me judgmental You helped me draw boundaries and learn how to keep them and how to ease back into the big world out there You have shown me how to embrace being a woman and how to draw on the strength and beauty of it all You helped me understand so much of what has happened to me, uncomplicated it and has let me start storing it away, archived as my past You showed me how to grow myself up the rest of the way. I’ll remember power pose. I will take risks and dare to dream big. I’ll believe I deserve it Thank you for helping me get me life back”
