Waitlist for new clients
I focus on empowering my clients to continue participation in meaningful activities despite their mental health challenges. Over the years, I have built expertise and knowledge around treatment of OCD and Trauma from a neurodiversity-affirming lens. As a mother of 2, I am also passionate in supporting new parents overcome the numerous mental health challenges that come with parenthood. I believe that this is a sensitive and important period of transition and change for parents, requiring compassionate support and empathy. For this reason, I offer both individual and group therapy to meet various client needs.

You’ve been carrying anxiety or low mood for a while—overthinking, poor sleep, and tension with the people you love. Maybe past trauma lingers, or you’re preparing for marriage, repairing after betrayal, or navigating separation. You want steadier emotions, confident boundaries, and communication that lands. You’re looking for a therapist who’s warm, structured, culturally attuned, and can include your values or faith when you want it. I work with adults and couples seeking practical tools and lasting change.

There can be times when life feels heavy - filled with constant demands, shifting priorities, and expectations that never seem to pause. For many professionals, students, and caregivers, it becomes difficult to slow down or create space for rest. These moments often call for more balance, clearer boundaries, and ways to manage stress and uncertainty while staying grounded and motivated.

Hi there, I’m a psychotherapist and social worker with over 15 years of experience in the mental health field. I hold a Master of Social Work and have spent my career supporting people through anxiety, trauma, childhood trauma, anger, substance use, and life transitions.
My Indo-Caribbean background gives me a deep understanding and unique perspective of what it means to navigate different cultural expectations, identities, and family systems. It shaped not only who I am, but also how I show up in the therapy room—with cultural sensitivity, curiosity, and respect.

Everything we experience impacts both our mind & body. Unfortunately, more often than not we end up living in our head as a result of things like stress & anxiety. While our mind can be an insightful place, it can also be isolating if we spend too much time there. The irony in this default pattern is that our bodies are incredibly reliable sources that provide us with valuable information. They have the ability to warn & inform us of our triggers, boundaries, perceptions & fears. “What the mind suppresses, the body expresses." By listening to both, you can begin to understand yourself in a deeper capacity.

We all carry relational wounds throughout our lives, shaped by experiences of neglect, criticism, or unmet emotional needs that leave lasting imprints. Too often, we are expected to process these wounds on our own, as if healing could happen in isolation. But true healing happens through connection, through being seen, heard, and held in a safe and compassionate space. In my practice, I offer exactly that: a supportive environment where you can explore old patterns, give voice to what has been silenced or lost over the years, and begin to care for yourself without fear or shame.
