Somewhere along the way, many of us learn to shrink ourselves to stay loved, accepted, or safe. If that sounds familiar, you might be carrying childhood trauma, faith-based trauma, or the weight of navigating your identity within your culture, your family, or the LGBTQ2IA+ community. You might be neurodivergent and still figuring out what that means for how you move through the world. I work with adolescents and adults facing these experiences, including depression, C-PTSD, family dysfunction, and relationship challenges, and I bring culturally responsive care that honours where you come from.
As an Indo-Caribbean and South Asian therapist who has AuDHD myself, I understand firsthand how culture, neurodivergence, and lived experience shape how we feel and cope. I draw from CBT, IFS, attachment-based approaches, and CFT, and I tailor each session to you rather than relying on a one-size-fits-all approach.
If you've spent so long prioritizing everyone else that you've lost sight of yourself, you don't have to find your way back alone. I create a space grounded in warmth and curiosity, where you can feel truly seen. When you're ready, I'd love to connect for a free consultation.

I work with clients navigating childhood trauma, faith-based trauma, neurodivergence, depression, C- PTSD, and cultural identity. We start by understanding your lived experience, then build a plan grounded in curiosity and respect for where you come from. The goal isn't to fit you into a mold, it's to help you reconnect with the parts of yourself you've had to set aside.

I draw from CBT, Internal Family Systems, attachment-based approaches, and Compassion Focused Therapy, choosing what fits you rather than following one fixed model. Sessions are warm and collaborative. We'll work together to understand your patterns, build genuine self-compassion, and create change that feels true to who you actually are.
