I specialize in supporting teens and adults who are navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, suicidal ideation, neurodivergence, and major life transitions. As an immigrant from Sri Lanka, I deeply understand the complexities of balancing multiple cultures and identities. I’m passionate about working with people of color, immigrants, and first-generation clients to address intergenerational trauma, cultural expectations, and systemic barriers. Together, we’ll work to build resilience, clarity, and a stronger sense of self in a safe, supportive space.
I provide trauma-informed therapy blending CBT, DBT, attachment theory, and person-centered methods through a multicultural and decolonial lens to create a safe, culturally humble space for healing and growth. I also offer immigration psychological evaluations to support court cases such as VAWA, asylum and hardship waivers.
Healing doesn’t have to be heavy — I bring humor, curiosity, and my authentic self to sessions so others can feel safe being fully themselves. If you are someone facing identity, mental health, or cultural challenges, I’m here to walk with you as you reclaim your story and build resilience.
