Some of my favourite themes to explore with clients include navigating life transitions, anxiety, neurodiversity, sense of self/ self esteem, and parenting from pre-conception to having little ones.

We all deserve support in carving out our paths in life. I am experienced in supporting individuals of all ages who may be experiencing emotional/relational challenges, anxiety, low self-esteem, ADHD and trauma.

You don't have to navigate this alone!

I specialize in supporting individuals who have experienced trauma, including childhood and complex trauma, as well as those navigating anxiety, low self-esteem, perfectionism, and self-criticism. As a new mother, I am passionate about helping postpartum mothers, offering a safe, non-judgmental space to address the emotional and psychological challenges of early parenthood. From my experience working at various Colleges and Universities, I have a deep understanding of the unique challenges, stressors, and unseen mental toll being a student can take & appreciate being able to support students through this uniquely stressful time.

I specialize in shame recovery, trauma recovery, including developmental traumas and shock traumas, PTSD, vicarious trauma, burn out, anxiety, depression, emotion regulation, stress management, self esteem and self worth, boundary violations, assertiveness, grief and loss, life transitions, identity and spiritual crisis.
Stress, anxiety and depression can quickly take over our lives. This survival mode protects our authentic self yet, in the long term, creates disconnect and misery. I believe that we each have the innate ability to return to our authentic selves as we slowly re-connect to our body and change survival patterns. This belief drives me in collaborating with you to move into your own sense of aliveness. My genuine presence and sensitivity supports creating a safe space for you to start letting go of survival mode and try out a new way of being.

If you are on this page, you may feel alone or like your voice is unheard by those around you. Maybe you are at a crossroads in your life or looking to make a change. As a queer and trans Indian individual who grew up in Texas, I understand what it can be like to feel invisible and unheard. I believe we all have a voice worth hearing and a story worth telling, and I am here to support you as you work toward your goals, however big or small. Because each of us is unique in our strengths and struggles, I take a person-centred and intersectional approach, drawing from narrative therapy, relational-cultural theory, and mindfulness.

I am an experienced Psychotherapist. If you choose to work with me I will strive to create a safe, respectful and meaningful relationship with you. I will listen carefully, with empathy and without judgement. Sometimes I ask a lot of questions in order to understand, to the best of my ability, what things are like for you. In working together to help me understand your story, usually what happens is that things start to make more sense for you too. Confusion often gives way to clarity. Feelings such as anxiety, anger, depression and isolation often subside as well.

Hello, thank you for reading my profile. My passion is to help you feel more fulfilled, empowered, and present in your life. Life is hard (and beautiful), trauma is real, and inequality is systemic. I provide a safe and nonjudgmental space for you to feel how you feel, as you come to better understand your thoughts, experiences, and relationships. I believe we each possess unique inner strengths and resources to help us move through life and get out of our heads (and into the moment). My personal and ongoing experience with grief allows me to meet you 'where you are', at your own pace, as we co-develop strategies that work for you.
