Therapy is successful when you have a therapist who understands you AND knows how to help you. I work with men and women navigating relationships, anxiety/depression, major life transitions, and family conflicts, all while trying to integrate two very different cultures – the one we’re born into and the one we’re living in. As a South Asian woman and a therapist for over 7 years, I understand how culture plays a huge role in our unique challenges and expectations.

Mission: To provide clients throughout the So-Cal region with high-quality teletherapy at affordable prices so you can change your life, overcome the challenges you face, and become the person you want to be. I incorporates various services and specialties tailored for individuals and couples appointments. Services offered include (but are not limited to): Adolescence, Trauma, Depression and Anxiety, Academic and other school problems, Relationship problems, Personal growth in the workplace, & Grief counseling.

Maybe you are coping with a stressful pregnancy? Or grappling with the loss of one? Are you postpartum, feeling unsure, worried, irritable, sad, unable to sleep even when the baby sleeps? Or perhaps, you are further along the parenting continuum, supporting your child through the various developmental stages - toddlerhood, adolescence and beyond. Is that meltdown normal? How do I help my child with difficult friendships? Is my teen's behavior typical? How do I tackle their constant internet use? Or maybe you simply want to empower yourself or your child with healthy emotional tools now to prevent potential issues later.

Life can be isolating when it's only YOU vs. YOUR struggles. As YOUR therapist, I help YOU transform YOUR pain into personal power when YOUR anxiety or depression takes over at the worst possible moments. It's confusing wrestling with day-to-day anger, pain & loss. This time can FEEL overwhelming & crippling. It may affect YOUR relationships with family, friend colleagues, & mostly, yourself. As Alder says, “courage does not happen when YOU have all the answers. It happens when YOU are ready to face the questions YOU have been avoiding YOUR whole life! How do YOU courageously face the difficult questions & reclaim YOUR strength?

Sometimes we need support and guidance to help us manage distress, achieve greater clarity, build better relationships and develop a healthier sense of ourselves. Most of us many times don’t want to discuss our personal problems, even with those closest to us. I would like to extend my hand to help you feel better about your life, relationships and most importantly, yourself! I am a skilled, and experienced psychotherapist who offers a supportive and non-judgmental environment for the therapeutic relationship. I provide short term solution focused or medium to long term therapy for adults and teens, depending on individual needs.

I know... reaching out for therapy is difficult. The thought of a confiding in a complete stranger can seem weird. But I have high hopes that this will be the start of something beautiful. If you are an individual who feels empowered to help calm your anxieties, lift your spirits, and get rid of anything standing in the way of you living your best life, then you're in the right place.

I believe the role of a therapist is to help create positive change by collaborating in a non-judgmental and mutual relationship. I endeavor to help my clients develop self-awareness and achieve their potential, enabling them to find their own answers and make transformative changes. I sensitively deal with individual and systematic/cultural influences to ensure clients’ goals and actions are manageable, realistic, and sustainable. For me, recognizing everyone’s identity and experiences, and inclusion is crucial to implementing strategies and tools that allow each individual to thrive, and to feel appreciated, seen, and heard.

This may not be an easy time in your life and I respect your courage to reach out for help. Hiding fear of failure or family pressure to be perfect and make it look effortless is a daily struggle. I know you can be overwhelmed. Frustrated and angry. I have lived it and have decades of experience. After facing the pressure from parents, peers, or yourself, you need a place to sort out who you are and how you fit into these pieces. You may be looking for a safe place to work through your challenges, such as when you are experiencing anxiety or depression, or even a unique cultural experience that you feel nobody understands.

It's time- New year, new You. Stressed out & Burned out from everyday life and years of trauma, feels suffocating. Being fed up, defeated, exhausted, & fatigued. There's no place to recharge. It's a struggle of surviving Desi values in an all- American society HECK- being a Desi kid is hard. Adulting, juggling kids, managing parents, and a job is even harder. Life keeps getting harder and you have no choice but to keep going. Feelings of dread keep you up at night, disrupts your work, and destroys your relationships.

I'M NOT good enough, I'M NOT lovable, & I'M not WORTHY! Sound familiar? Does it look "PERFECT" on the outside but you struggle internally? Does something feel off even though it seems life is all together? We live in a fast-paced world. The expectation is for us to have everything together: the perfect relationship, job, home, friends, body, high self-esteem, and social media life. - - - - - - - - - - - - The reality is, we have real emotions, feelings, and life challenges. Even the strongest of us need some support in forcing our inner self-sabtoging critic to sashay away. Together, let's create the life you've always wanted.
