From our very first session, Dr. Luthra took the time to empathize with and genuinely understand my current situation(s) even throughout the obligatory intake process. Her education and experience with alternative relationship and attachment styles was precisely what I was hoping to find when securing steady talk therapy. Highly recommended! ✨

Dr. Luthra has offered me so much guidance in managing the stressors in my life. She has taken the time to make sure she really understands my perspective, and the advice she provides is clearly given with my specific circumstances and experience in mind.

I’ve only had 3 sessions so far with Dr. Luthra but we clicked from the first session. I’ve been through many therapists and what I look for most is someone willing to give advice or feedback on what I can do to help myself. Not just listen. She listens and is extremely helpful with her advice and recommendations. So far so good. I actually look forward to our sessions. It’s definitely a 2-way conversation as it should be. I’m super happy with Dr. Luthra.

Dr. Luthra helped me understand the issues I was dealing with and how to deal with my family's relationship after losing a loved one.

I have been working with Dr. Luthra for a few weeks now. Mainly focusing on relationship issues. From our sessions, I’ve learned so much about myself. I have learned that I need to start setting boundaries with people and work which I didn’t even think was affecting me, and based off all of Dr. Luthra’s recommendations as long as you put the work in you will see a change in yourself and the people around you.
I was very closed off and didn’t want to be open with a People closest to me. Dr. Lutheran made me realize that communication is key in any relationship. She gave me a small exercises to work on with my husband that has been really beneficial to our relationship.
Not only has Dr. Luthra Been very supportive, she’s very easy to talk to. She’s very open minded and I never felt judged speaking about things I never thought I was speak about out loud.
BetterHelp app is very supportive as well. The journal injuries make me think about things that I would’ve never of thought about, and the group therapy sessions are amazing.
I will be continuing my journey with Dr. Luthra to continue to work on my relationships, aspirations, self image, and more!
Believe me I know it’s hard to take the first steps to get help. But, I am so happy that I did. It has honestly been life changing.
Thank you!

I have been in and out of therapy for 4 years, never finding a therapist who truly helped me dig deep to find the root of issues that triggered me. I struggle with anxiety and Dr. Luthra’s extensive knowledge is amazin. She has been helping me so much and helps me see things from a logical yet warm and scientific viewpoint. She really knows the ins and outs of how our minds work. If you’re hesitant to starting therapy, I hope you come across this review and give Dr. Luthra a chance to help you. She is wonderful!
