About Gunjan

Gunjan Gotra is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) with 20+ years of experience helping teens, adults, and families navigate anxiety, depression, stress, divorce, grief, and the quiet weight of shame, guilt, and perfectionism. Licensed in the State of Maryland (License #LC4794) and Verified by Psychology Today, Gunjan holds a Master's in Mental Health Counseling from Boston University School of Medicine (2009) and a Bachelor's in Psychology.

Gunjan specializes in helping clients who struggle with shame, guilt, and perfectionism — patterns that quietly fuel self-doubt and feelings of inadequacy. Her work centers on building self-compassion, emotional awareness, and the courage to face fears with clarity. She works with teens and adults individually, and with families looking to rebuild trust and connection.

As a mother of two pre-teen boys, Gunjan brings lived understanding to everything she does — especially the complex, tender work of parenting. She created Kind Parenting because she believes parenting can be joyful, and that most parents simply need tools, not more pressure.

She speaks both English and Hindi and brings deep cultural sensitivity to her work with South Asian clients and families navigating identity, expectation, and generational pressure.

The Kind Parenting Workshop is an experiential coaching and education experience — not clinical therapy. Each cohort is intentionally limited to 10 participants to ensure an intimate, community feel where every parent is seen and heard.
