Manisha Chulani, LMFT

Manisha Chulani is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) practicing in California who brings an empathetic, patient, and non-judgmental presence to her work. She approaches therapy with curiosity about the patterns that begin in childhood and how those patterns continue to shape relationships and self-perception across the life span.

Manisha notes that many people move through a fast-paced culture filled with images of how they are expected to be. Her aim is to help clients uncover their true essence, cultivate self-compassion, and develop a more secure sense of self. She emphasizes gentle, steady work that supports increased self-acceptance and emotional resilience.

Having spent time online as a teenager, Manisha appreciates how virtual communication can sometimes create a safer space for people whose anxiety makes in-person meetings difficult. On a virtual platform she draws on empathy, cognitive behavioral therapy, guided meditations, and solution-focused strategies to tailor sessions to each person’s needs. Her style centers on meeting people where they are and helping them build practical, compassionate ways of living.
