Dr. Shipra Maurya, Psy.D.

Psychological Associate at Mind-Body Care

Hello! My name is Dr. Shipra Maurya. I am passionate about working with individuals experiencing identity development stagnation, acculturative stressors, and microaggressions. As a second-generation Asian Indian American born to immigrant parents, I deeply understand the complexities of identity formation and cultural integration. In addition to my psychological practice, I am a board-certified Ayurvedic Health Practitioner and yoga teacher, offering a unique blend of cultural and holistic perspectives. 

How I Work:

My practice is rooted in integrity and a strong work ethic. My passion for clinical practice stems from the need for more South Asian American clinicians in the field. I am dedicated to serving minority communities, particularly those dealing with bi-cultural identity challenges and neurodivergent individuals and couples.

I have over 10 years of experience working with individuals across the Autism Spectrum and with neurodiverse couples. I also treat multicultural, neurodiverse couples with a vital cultural component and neurological perspective. With a strength-based approach, I provide concrete skill-building tools to enhance emotional connection. My approach is compassionate and empathetic, addressing the unique challenges faced by neurodiverse individuals and their partners. I also provide culturally sensitive therapy to South Asian American clients, focusing on intersectionality, acculturation, and cultural/gender empowerment.

I aim to create a safe, warm, and inviting space where trust, honesty, and openness can thrive. I look forward to meeting you and supporting your journey towards healing and self-discovery.
