I am passionate about supporting individuals in creating a lifestyle that brings them true happiness and inner peace. As a South Asian, I deeply understand how our childhood experiences, cultural expectations, and family dynamics shape our decisions as adults. My goal is to provide a safe and compassionate environment where you can explore and address these influences while providing honest and insightful discussion for change.

Creating a space for pre-teens, teens, and young adults to explore the emotions that might have felt too heavy to carry, and too overwhelming to face alone. Whether your story includes trauma, anxiety, feelings of being stuck, struggles with eating disorders, relationship challenges, codependency, a desire to explore your own identity, or any of the many facets of life that impact us, healing and growth are possible. In this space, my goal is to support you in healing wounds, learn supportive coping skills, better understand feelings, and unlearn the patterns that no longer serve you, and instead learn to envision your wholeness.

You’re not crazy. Even though you’re labeled as difficult. You take any reason to avoid going home as emotions rise, the conversation gets volatile, and you’re the only one who apologizes. It feels like a never-ending loop; You’re doing the work and still getting stuck. You may have been told to “cut off your family” due to the intergenerational abuse, but that option doesn’t feel right.  I know that feeling. My parents moved to Canada to give me a better life after surviving violence, bunkers, and assassination attempts in Bangladesh during the war. They taught me to redirect and stuff down my own anger, fear, and frustration.

Trauma lives in our bodies whether we recognize it or not. Although we might not know exactly what or how we are feeling, our bodies keep track. We’ve witnessed and experienced many things that have shaped us and how we perceive the world around us. As your therapist, I will hold a safe and confidential space for you to open up and unpack the trauma that is stored in your mind, body, and soul. As a first-generation Tamil Canadian, I recognize the impacts of intergenerational and racial trauma and how it affects the way we navigate different spaces and various relationships.

Managing our relationships, work, school, and life changes can feel overwhelming. You may be overthinking about friends, jobs and relationships, or having a difficult time developing and maintaining positive relationships with family, friends, or partners. While these challenges pile up, anxiety, anger, and sadness can start to cloud our thinking making it hard to tackle what we're experiencing on our own. Therapy can help us cope with what we're are going through, while also helping us learn more about ourselves along the way and regain control over parts of our life we felt we lost.
