Hindu Therapists in New York

Hello and welcome! I am a Clinical Psychologist and have practiced as a psychotherapist for over 20 years. Many of my clients have commented that they healed and grew tremendously while working with me because I help them gain insight into their problems while also helping them use healthy strategies to change their situations. Using the foundation of an authentic, trusting, and warm relationship, I use a number of modalities including Psychodynamic, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). I work with Individuals across the lifespan, couples, and groups.

Are you an immigrant or child of immigrants stuck in painful relationships over clashing expectations and feeling unseen? Are you the “high achiever” or “caretaker” but have to hide parts of yourself and can’t shake the underlying fear that something isn’t right? Are you curious about how intergenerational experiences influence your identities, decisions, and struggles? You may have sought relief from the conflict, anxiety, and shame but not in the healthiest ways. You may finally be considering therapy to stop avoiding, stop suffering, and start healing. You’ve come to the right place.

Hi! I'm currently accepting new clients! I am a firm believer in the journey and destination. Understanding the root of a difficulty can help gain insight, unlocking doors to a healthy life. If you would like a free consultation, please click "my website" to schedule. Stay amazing! :D

Life is a rollercoaster ride. But no matter where you find yourself on this unpredictable journey of highs and lows remember, you’re not alone. As a passionate psychotherapist, I’m committed to empowering your path to emotional resilience one session at a time. My experiences encompass a wide spectrum of mental health challenges, including mood disorders, anxiety disorders, trauma, ADHD, grief, substance abuse, as well as complex issues related to racial, sexual and gender identity.

In a session together we will shift feelings of overwhelmed with tenderness, and engaged compassion. We are present with your range of emotions, in an open, curious, empathetic expansive space and we aim to tap into your innate wisdom through insight, humor and joy; and if need be actionable steps. I hope that each session will be restorative, empowering, insightful and powerful in aiding you to identify your values and integrating them organically in your life.

I am a University of Pennsylvania trained, millennial, Indian-American, psychotherapist who utilizes emotion-focused methods to help you generate a stronger sense of self. My main goals in therapy are to help you feel less alone with your emotions and to help you feel more understood in your experience as a POC in the United States. As a child of immigrants, I can relate to the unique challenge of straddling two very different cultures and trying to fit in with both. Oftentimes, I will draw from my personal experience of navigating similar cultural, generational, and racial clashes to better support you.

Do you feel like you are never quite doing enough? Maybe you feel numb and burnt out but don’t know how to let yourself stop or relax. You may have trouble accessing your emotions, or you notice that you’re often on an emotional rollercoaster that gets in the way of being fully present to your life. If you feel trapped by uncertainty, cycling thoughts, self-criticism, making decisions, intense emotions, relationships, or trauma symptoms - you have come to the right place. My therapeutic process seeks to understand who you are, who you want to be, and how we can tap into your inner wisdom to enact the change you desire.

If you are a queer and/or trans person of color looking to explore the ways that your intersectional identities shape your life, I may be the right fit for you! I'm interested in working with folks who want to move beyond mainstream, Western narratives of mental health and well-being, and connect with the roots and paths that have forged your unique path. How do we define our "best self", and what societal structures may have impacted that idea? How do we move towards being more comfortable and vulnerable at the expense of shattering lifelong ideas of how we are meant to live?

Do you find that your self-worth and happiness are largely dependent on other people, places, and things? The validation gained from external variables tend to be short lived, leading to an overdrive in reassurance seeking behaviors, fear, anxiety, and sadness. No matter how difficult it may seem to feel secure within yourself, together we will pursue a journey of self-empowerment and self-compassion, to achieve exactly that! We will explore the root causes of current belief systems and attachment styles, while taking mindful steps to nurture a life that honors your needs.
