Guided by a strengths-based and client-centered philosophy, I believe in the inherent capacity of every individual to navigate their life journey with resilience and empowerment. My therapeutic style is marked by its accepting, directive, humorous, and empowering nature. My passion lies in working with both individuals and couples, as I recognize that cultivating healthy relationships, in all aspects of life, is a cornerstone of personal well-being. As a South Asian therapist, I am also driven to normalize therapy within my community, advocating for the power of open communication and shared experiences.
Trained in Couple and Family Therapy, I integrate a variety of systemic and relational models to empower clients on their transformative journeys. Additionally, I previously served as a nonprofit attorney specializing in gender-based violence, which deepened my understanding of trauma and resilience.
I believe all people can build healthy relationships, regardless of their past relationship history and I find profound fulfillment in joining clients on their therapeutic journeys, guiding them towards the goals. I aspire to empower individuals, couples, and families to create lives filled with meaningful connections and positive transformations.
