I am a queer South Asian therapist who is focused on creating an authentic space for you to heal and grow.  As a second-generation immigrant, I understand the stigma and trepidation that comes with getting mental healthcare. I strive to create a space where you can be seen and heard without judgment. Together, we will work to identify challenges related to trauma, cultural background, depression, anxiety, and lack of fulfillment in your life.
Prior to my work with Sage Stone Counseling, I worked with individuals experiencing depression, anxiety, and PTSD. I have also worked with individuals experiencing major life and career changes. I have a particular interest in working with immigrants, complex trauma, and communities of color. I also have an interest in working with men.
In my work, it's my belief that you are the authority on yourself. I'm certain that you have many pressures in your life telling you who and what you are, and it is my aim to advocate for you as you turn your attention inward. Using a psychodynamic approach, I can offer you a chance to implement empathy, compassion, and inner kindness in your life.

My approach leans towards person-centered and psychodynamic, encouraging you to understand and trust yourself as you learn to know what you want out of life. Feel free to ask me about what this might look like, or if there are any modalities you might be curious about implementing. It is my belief you should have autonomy over your care.
