Primary modality: Deep Brain Reorienting (DBR)—a gentle, brainstem-based trauma therapy that helps resolve the roots of PTSD and C- PTSD, and can ease anxiety, grief, and overwhelm.
You want change at the root, not just more coping. I primarily use Deep Brain Reorienting (DBR), a brainstem-based, evidence-informed approach that attends to the earliest layers of the threat response. We move gently—without forced retelling—so deep tension can ease, breath and sleep can improve, and a sense of safety in the body can grow. From there, life is experienced from a calmer, more connected place with more choice and less reactivity. As helpful, I integrate Art Therapy, Internal Family Systems (IFS), Relational Intelligence (IR), and Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART) to support your goals.

I specialize in anxiety, burnout, people-pleasing, and intergenerational trauma for South Asians, immigrants, and Muslim women.
You look like you have it together — the career, the family, the responsibilities you carry without complaint. But inside, you're exhausted in a way that's hard to explain, even to yourself. You overthink every conversation. You feel guilty when you say no. You snap at the people you love and then spend hours feeling awful. At night, when the house is finally quiet, your brain won't stop. If you're a South Asian, immigrant, or Muslim woman carrying the weight of cultural expectations and family pressure, you're in the right place.

I’m extensively trained in Internal Family Systems (IFS L1–L3) and practice through a trauma-informed, anti-oppressive lens. Early sessions map your inner system and set clear goals; then we blend IFS with Pain Reprocessing–informed strategies and mindfulness to calm the nervous system, reduce pain/anxiety, and build compassionate self-leadership
