I invite you into a safe and nurturing space where we can explore the unique way you experience the world. Together, we’ll unlock the mysteries of your emotions, revealing understanding and empowerment. Through this journey, you’ll learn to embrace the emotions that inspire and gently transform those that feel overwhelming, discovering the treasures of wisdom hidden within. As a queer person born to immigrant parents from South Asia, my path to healing has been unique. My journey began when I started my diploma in Transpersonal Therapeutic counselling while also starting my own therapy and healing.
By unearthing the roots of my family’s history and the echoes of colonialism, I uncovered layers of my being that had long been cloaked in trauma. In this rediscovery, I found parts of myself waiting to be set free—parts brimming with joy, love, and inspiration.
I will help you build loving boundaries and nurture authentic connection with self and others, creating a life full of magic, harmony, and grace. I am here to guide you as you journey inward, connecting to the gifts within you. Together, we will uncover the brilliance of you and the wonder waiting to be revealed.
