When life feels overwhelming, whether it’s due to stress, anxiety, or relationship challenges, it’s easy to feel stuck or unsure of where to turn. You may know you want things to be different, but figuring out how to start can feel too much. That’s where I come in.
As a BIPOC therapist with lived experience as an immigrant, international student, and mother, I understand how layered identity, belonging, and emotional safety can be. My experiences across India, Africa, and Canada have shaped how I connect with openness, cultural awareness, and deep respect for each person’s story.
My approach is warm, grounded, and collaborative. You won’t find judgment or quick fixes here. Instead, we’ll take our time to understand your patterns better, make space for your emotions, and work toward change that feels real and sustainable. I also offer sessions in both Tamil and English.
I bring a thoughtful, lived-in lens to therapy that honours the complexity of who you are and where you come from. I’m here to help you untangle the noise, reconnect with your inner wisdom, and step into a life that feels true, empowered, and unapologetically yours.
