Our South Asian Couples Therapy Team

Are you and your partner navigating the pressure of tradition, family, or differing values?

Couples therapy as a South Asian couple isn’t just about love — it’s about navigating family dynamics, cultural expectations, and generational pressures. At Boundless, we offer therapy that’s culturally grounded, LGBTQIA+ inclusive, and tailored to the lived realities of South Asian relationships.

South Asian Couples Therapy Goals

Balance Tradition & Autonomy

Navigate loyalty to family values while building a relationship on your own terms.

Work Through Guilt & Shame

Unpack internalized fears around “disappointing” others or being “too much” or “not enough.”

Strengthen Emotional Intimacy

Deepen connection beyond roles and routines — with empathy, softness, and trust.

Unlearn Generational Patterns

Interrupt cycles of avoidance, silence, and emotional suppression passed down through family norms.

Set Boundaries with Family

Learn to manage expectations from parents, in-laws, and extended family with clarity and care.

Build a Unified Vision

Align on marriage, money, religion, kids, or chosen family — even with different upbringings.
