Feeling stuck, behind or without purpose? Is past trauma affecting your self worth, leaving you feeling like you constantly have to prove yourself? I work with high functioning anxiety and depression, trauma, relationship issues and dating challenges. Whether you're a woman juggling endless responsibilities, a man battling procrastination, or part of a couple navigating cultural and family stress, I understand the unique pressures you face—and I’m here to help. I offer a warm, understanding space to help you move forward with clarity and care.

I provide culturally-responsive therapy to help you break these patterns, set meaningful boundaries, and reconnect with your authentic values—transforming perfectionism into purposeful action and creating relationships that support rather than drain you.

If you find yourself looking for support around your overall mental health well-being and start making a change, I will love to connect with you on a 15 minutes consultation call. This will help us understand your needs and determine whether we would be a good fit together.

I work with South Asian immigrants experiencing trauma, low self esteem, dating/relationship issues and challenges with family dynamics. During our initial sessions, we will work on exploring the challenges that you might be experiencing and develop a rapport. Most of my clients notice a positive shift in the first 2 months of working together. My approach combines self-reflection & coping skills.
