Therapists in Livingston, NJ

Welcome. I am here to help you. There are times and stages of our lives where we are feeling overwhelmed, hopeless, confused, or proactively seeking clarity on specific issues, and in need of deeper insight into how to cope with challenges. I use a collaborative and experiential approach, honoring your cultural strengths to support you through what motivates you and triggers you, and identify effective and meaningful ways of being. In psychotherapy, you have a safe space to share your thoughts, emotions, and experiences. Sometimes we just need professional guidance to get us to the right level of understanding to potentiate change.

Life can feel overwhelming or complicated. You may be feeling stuck or weighed down by work or relationships, or you may be struggling to change behaviors that prevent you from achieving your goals. Whether you're struggling with anxiety, depression, trouble with relationships, trauma, or other mental health issues, I am here to help. Seeking therapy is a step forward in working on yourself and gaining a better understanding of your thoughts and emotions.

Are you looking to make a shift? I am licensed Marriage and Family Therapist working with individuals, couples, families, and groups. I believe therapy can be seen as a process of unpacking. Things often go unsaid, which can manifest into various effects on the body, such as anxiety. Although staying with your emotions can be difficult, it can often be the pathway to healing. My clinical experience has allowed me to gain a deeper understanding of the impact of our environment and relationships, as well as the positive shifts that can take place when offered supportive and validating resources.

My practice encompasses work with individuals, couples, families, children and group work from diverse backgrounds. My focus is to provide services for those who are struggling with conflicted relationships, anxiety, depression, anger management, parenting and communication issues. I also help clients to deal with life transitions and life stressors by helping them organize their thoughts and feelings to be more effective. A decision to begin therapy can be stressful and difficult; however successful therapeutic outcomes can be tremendously self empowering and rewarding. I strive to provide a safe, compassionate and a non-judgmental environment which is conducive to open dialogue.

My interventions are drawn from cognitive behavioral (CBT), dialectical behavioral (DBT), psychodynamic, and family systems approaches. I have expertise in treating anxiety, depression, trauma, behavioral issues, ADHD and related learning disabilities, developmental disorders, personality disorders, and family conflict. I also have extensive experience working with eating disorders through intensive internship and fellowship placements at The Renfrew Center of Philadelphia and Florida. I am well versed in the administration and interpretation of comprehensive psychological assessments. I work with clients across the lifespan helping to optimize inherent strengths to better cope with the demands of their academic, social, professional, and family contexts.

I work best with South Asian clients who are ages 12 & up and are struggling with being motivated in school, at home or amongst their peers or in their relationship. Client often gets into a power struggle with their parent/guardian, teachers or significant other and the root cause can be anxiety, depression, anger, self-esteem and/or trauma. Clients who experience such concerns often have a tough time putting their emotions into words and feel overwhelmed by the daily tasks that are being demanded from them. Clients will begin to learn how and why they communicate the way they do to become a better version of themselves.

Similar to how people workout their bodies, the brain also needs to be exercised and maintained. Therapy allows you to not only better yourself, situation or life but it allows you to cleanse your mind and stay mentally healthy. Mental health is something that can impact an individual’s life in numerous ways; such as daily activities, relationships, personality or even cause physical symptoms to arise. Coming from a culturally diverse background, my mission professionally is to create awareness for mental health in minority communities that may view mental health as a taboo.
