About Jeeva

The term jeeva (jiva) stems from Indian philosophy and refers to the concept of the individual self, the living, independent soul. Jeevitham means life and existence more broadly.

Jeeva Counseling is a tele mental health practice that is founded upon the understanding that in a difficult world such as ours, it is not an easy thing to live and be human independent of physical and psychological struggles. Yet, we believe that life and independence are ideals worth striving for, and we’re proud to help others work through their internal and external obstacles in order to live more fully, whatever that means to you.

“The only dream worth having is to dream that you will live while you’re alive and die only when you’re dead. To love. To be loved. To never forget your own insignificance. To never get used to the unspeakable violence and the vulgar disparity of life around you. To seek joy in the saddest places. To pursue beauty to its lair. To never simplify what is complicated or complicate what is simple. To respect strength, never power. Above all, to watch. To try and understand. To never look away. And never, never, to forget.” – Arundhati Roy
