Your resume is impressive. Your inner monologue is not. My clients are high-achieving professionals, caregivers, and first-generation adults who have spent their whole lives being the responsible ones and are exhausted by it. Many are South Asian adults carrying the weight of family expectations, cultural pressure, and the unspoken rule that falling apart is not an option. You've hit every milestone and still feel like something is wrong with you. It isn't. But the anxiety, the perfectionism, the burnout that won't quit, that part is real. And it's worth taking seriously.
I specialize in anxiety, perfectionism, and burnout, the kind that hides behind a full calendar and a polished exterior. My approach is mindfulness-based and integrates nervous system work, insight-oriented therapy, and CBT. I offer in-person sessions in Ventura, CA and online therapy across California, Illinois, and New York.
You've been the strong one for so long, you've forgotten what it feels like not to be. Therapy with me is direct, warm, and built for people who are skeptical but curious enough to try. No toxic positivity. No vague advice. Just real work in a space where you don't have to perform. Start with a free 15-minute consult.
