Online Psychotherapy in California for $199

Psychotherapy by telehealth anywhere in California, with Harpal Singh, PMHNP-BC.

Medicine can ease symptoms. Psychotherapy works on the rest, such as patterns, coping, relationships and the story you tell yourself about your life. For many people, the best results come from both together.

Mindful Sewa Psychiatry offers supportive psychotherapy by telehealth across California for a flat $199 per session. There is also a rare benefit here. Your therapist and your prescriber are the same person.

Online psychotherapy in California gives you a set time each week or two to slow down and work through what is weighing on you. Talk therapy helps you notice patterns, learn new ways to cope and make sense of hard events. It can stand alone or work alongside medicine.

Sessions take place by secure video, so you can join from a quiet room at home or a parked car on a lunch break. Harpal Singh, PMHNP-BC, offers therapy in English, Punjabi, Hindi and Spanish. For many people, speaking in their first language makes it easier to open up about feelings they have never said out loud.

How Psychotherapy Works

1. Share Your Goals. In your first session you talk about what brought you in and what you want to change. Goals are written in plain words you agree with.
2. Build Skills Session by Session. Each session works on one part of the goal, such as calming worry, sleeping better or handling conflict. You may get a small practice task to try.
3. Practice Between Sessions. Real change happens during the week. You try new skills in daily life and bring back what worked and what did not.
4. Review Progress Together. Every few sessions you look back at your goals. The plan can shift, slow down or wrap up when you feel ready.

Our Approach to Therapy

Sessions give you a private, safe space to explore thoughts, feelings and experiences. Together you build coping skills and work toward the changes that matter to you. Care is supportive and respectful of your culture, your family and your past.

Therapy Plus Medication in One Place

When one clinician provides both therapy and medication management, nothing falls between two providers. What comes up in therapy can shape prescribing, and medicine progress can shape therapy. It is connected care in the simplest sense.

Who Benefits From Psychotherapy

People dealing with anxiety, depression, stress and grief often benefit. So do people facing big life changes or strain in a relationship. Therapy also helps people on medicine who want deeper work alongside it.

What a Psychotherapy Session Feels Like

A session is a private, calm conversation. You set the topic, and your clinician helps you look at it from new angles. Some days you may learn a breathing or thinking skill. Other days you may simply talk through a hard week and feel less alone with it.

You do not need to have the right words. Silence, tears and confusion are all welcome. The goal is steady progress, not a perfect session. Many people find that problems that felt huge begin to shrink once they are spoken aloud.

Who Therapy Can Help

Therapy can help with worry, low mood, grief, stress at work and tension at home. It also helps during big changes like a new baby, a divorce or caring for an aging parent. People with grief and adjustment concerns often find it a useful place to start.

Therapy is also useful for people on medicine who want more than symptom relief. Because your therapist and prescriber are the same person, both parts of care stay connected. What you learn in therapy can shape medicine choices, and the other way around.

How Therapy and Medication Work Together

Medicine can ease symptoms like constant worry or heavy low mood. Therapy helps you build skills that last, such as calming your body, catching unhelpful thoughts and setting limits with others. For many conditions, the two together work better than either one alone.

You do not have to choose both. Some people start with therapy and add medicine later. Others start with medicine and add therapy once they feel steady. Because one clinician handles both, changes are easy to coordinate. You can read more on our medication management page.
