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.

Namaste, a small introduction to what I do, who I am and where I come from. I am a bilingual, bi-cultural Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW). I earned my Masters degree in Social Work from Rutgers University. I began my path as a Social Worker to help people be the best version of themselves. I have many years of experience providing individuals with tools to overcome any obstacles they are facing. As a LCSW of South Asian decent, I understand the cultural nuances, generational trauma and cultural identity struggles that many people experience.

Therapy is only as good as the relationship between therapist and client. I provide a space for the client to explore their vulnerabilities, hopes, challenges and meet them with unconditional positive regard, empathy, and an environment where growth can occur. The human experience is universal and yet it is as unique as each individual human. Culture, family background, and one’s own personal circumstances directly inform a client’s worldview. I work closely with those struggling to manage the stress of daily life and those experiencing challenges related to anxiety, depression, disordered eating, trauma, and relational challenges.

Are you struggling with conflicting thoughts, shame, guilt, and personal conflict? Do they overwhelm you, impact the way you feel about yourself, and interfere with your daily routine? Sometimes things can get overwhelming due to cultural disparities, family values and life stressors. I hear you, you have come to the right place. Would you like to work with a therapist who really gets what you are going through, what it feels like to be heard and understood? Being of South Asian decent myself I understand the cultural nuances, generational trauma, extended family system and cultural identity struggles that come with it.

" Healing does not mean that the damage never existed. It means that damage no longer controls our lives." an axiom that I live by on a daily basis. I have had over 20 years of privilege testing this axiom with many brave souls. Once these individuals made a decision to not be ashamed of their suffering and peel the layers of their pain; they were able to set themselves free of it and create space for increased peace, joy and freedom. My integrative approach to counseling and ability to apply both Eastern and Western philosophies/approaches helps this goal in measured and timed steps.
