You left the mitti. But the mitti never left you.

To the Desi Soul in California - From SEVEE

​​You made it here. But somewhere along the way, you lost pieces of yourself.

Maybe it was between visa stress and weekend groceries.
Maybe it was when you laughed at the wrong joke just to fit in.
Or when you stayed silent during a Zoom call, not because you didn’t know the answer - but because your accent might trip.

I’ve lived in California too.
I studied at UCI, raised my children there, danced at Garba nights in Fremont, and cried alone after family functions that left me feeling… misplaced.

So I get it.
You're Desi at heart, American by hustle - and emotionally somewhere in between.

And maybe you're not falling apart -
Maybe you're just tired of holding it all together.

At SEVEE, we offer therapy that speaks your language - Hindi, Gujarati, English - but more importantly, your life.
We understand the guilt of privilege. The silent homesickness. The pressure to perform. The fear of being “too much Indian” or “not enough.”

Whether you’re in LA, the Bay, or a quiet suburb - this is your space.
No labels. No judgment. Just one Desi to another, saying - I see you. And we’re here.

Because even if you left the mitti behind,
you still carry the soul of Desh.

And SEVEE was built to hold it with you.

Warmly,
Parita Sharma
Founder, SEVEE

Therapist Near Me in New York — For Desis Who Left, and Those Who Stayed

When your child flies across oceans, your heart stays right where they were born.

To the Desi Soul in New York - From SEVEE

For the ones who left home, and the ones who stayed behind.

She was just 17 when I dropped her to New York.
A city full of lights — and unknowns.
We bonded like never before in those final few days.
Then she flew. And I stayed.
She was ready to leave the nest.
But I wasn’t ready to let go.

I still remember her first day of kindergarten.
She had separation anxiety.
She cried.
I waited - relieved, if I’m honest - that she was finally adjusting.

Seventeen years later, she walked into college.
And this time, I was the one with separation anxiety.
I cried.
I waited - trying to trust the process.
But truthfully, it ached.

This letter is for every parent who left behind a jaan ka tukda...
And every student trying to be strong while secretly craving home.

At SEVEE, we don’t just offer therapy.
We offer a bridge between two homes, two cultures, two hearts.
We support young adults in New York -
not just as clients, but as children raised with your values.

And we hold space for parents back home -
to process the ache, pride, and confusion that distance brings.

Sure, therapy may be free abroad.
But will they understand your child’s Desi roots? Your family's story?

We do.

If you're looking for a culturally rooted therapist -
for you, your child, or both -
SEVEE is your emotional home between homes.

Book a therapist who understands your side of the story.
