As a genderqueer, bisexual, South Asian woman of color, I have the lived experience of several individualized intersections that have forged the person I am today, and the person I continue to strive to be.
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?

Managing life’s challenges can overwhelm each of us. Whether juggling typical ups and downs or coping with loss, trauma, major upset or crisis, there are times we need compassion, an advocate, a fellow strategist or just someone to listen. Our relationship to ourselves, family, career, or life changes can sometimes seem out of control, leading to depression, anxiety or isolation. Therapy is a tool designed to help manage life’s challenges and bring clarity, perspective and a sense of well-being.

Starting therapy requires bravery and vulnerability. As someone who has been on both sides of the equation – clinician and client – I want to make this act of courage on your part as comfortable as possible. I know what it feels like to share my experiences with a clinician and have them respond back to me with kindness, openness, and acceptance – sometimes simply by saying “You went through all that? Me too.” As your therapist, I’ll work with you to identify any thoughts, behaviors, emotions, or limiting beliefs preventing you from living a meaningful, joyful life.

I work with adults, children, and couples who are seeking insight into the root causes of their suffering. We experiment with new understandings for persistent problems, allowing curiosity and empathy to lead the way. As your desires, conflicts, and feelings about yourself and others come to the surface, we look closely at them, and see how they connect to what you are dealing with now. This can change the nature of problems, and sometimes, liberate you from them entirely.

I am passionate about helping adults navigate their complex inner worlds. I enjoy working with those who project confidence and self-assurance in various areas of life yet privately battle anxiety, depression, or grief. I especially enjoy working with women to better understand how their mental health and reproductive health journeys are intertwined. If you are struggling with peripartum depression and anxiety, PMDD, infertility, perinatal loss (including abortion and miscarriage) I may be a good fit for you.

I work with people who are part of the LGBTQIA+ communities and allies. My work is rooted in gender-affirming therapy for those seeking exploration and support around their gender identities. I also work with those who are living with addiction and recovery. I work with clients who live, work and play under a cloak of secrecy; the outside world sees them as goal-driven professionals who have stable relationships and a host of family and friends. My clients hide their struggles with Depression, Anxiety, Low Self Esteem, and Substance Use. My clients want to live and love authentically.

As an Indo-Caribbean-American mental health counselor, I bring a deep understanding and empathy to those grappling with mental health challenges. I know firsthand the cultural stigmas that often accompany these struggles. Growing up in a Guyanese household where emotions weren't openly discussed, I've experienced feelings of being misunderstood or ostracized after being vulnerable. I want you to know that I recognize these unique experiences and identities that shape our mental health perspectives. You can expect a safe, non-judgmental space to explore your thoughts and feelings in our sessions.
