Perhaps you have been struggling with anxiety, depression or low self-esteem. You may be working through the pain of grief or trauma. Or you might be looking for a way to find your inner strength, and move forward confidently. As a therapist, I provide a safe place for you to sit, talk and gain insight about your experiences, along with building a strong therapeutic connection based on empathy and empowerment. I strive to be a supporting pillar for you where ever you stand currently, and walk with you through your challenges and connect with your strengths to help make your healing process simpler.
I am a Certified Autism Spectrum Disorder Clinical Specialist and have also worked as an Educational Assistant to support children with special needs through school-related stressors. I feel comfortable connecting with people of any age group. I currently provide psychotherapy to English, Hindi and Punjabi speakers ages 13 and up.
Having lived in many different parts of the world throughout my life, I connect easily with people with diverse cultures, backgrounds, ages, and life circumstances. Please don't hesitate to reach out and book through phone, email, or schedule directly through my booking website. I look forward to connecting with you and walking on the therapeutic journey!
