Are you feeling overwhelmed or stuck? Have changes in your mood or behavior started to prevent you from feeling like yourself, enjoying your life or engaging in your daily activities?

A quiet space to talk about feelings and life experiences can help when we are overwhelmed or stuck. The desire for inner peace and hope during turmoil often brings people to therapy. Traumatic experiences coupled with current life stress often take our energy and hope away. These need to be gently addressed in order to feel more comfortable in life. I respect that each person does this in his or her own unique manner. I also work with individuals who find their "golden years" may include depression, isolation, illness, grief and loss.

I'm passionate about working with individuals who have struggled to "fit in" and adapt to intolerable social conditions. My personal background as a late-diagnosed neurodivergent person informs my practice, in which I strive to meet each client where they are, and refer to the client as the expert on their own experience.
Meeting you nonjudgmentally in the place where you may feel lost and alone is my top priority. From there, we can collaborate on plans to help you reconnect with what makes your life most worth living.

Stress, anxiety, sadness, interpersonal relationship challenges, and trauma are different spectrum of life that we all have been experiencing as human. If we ignore and keep living without doing anything about it, it will keep piling up and starts affecting our overall well-being. Being trained in homeopathic medicine from India and practicing homeopathy for few years, I quickly realized the connection of mind and body which inspired me to advance my knowledge in the field of counseling to provide holistic approach to health. I will be able to help you to make changes in your life and stay in harmony at every level of health.

Since my time as a therapist, as well as solo single mother and solo private practice owner, I have observed that the remarkable moments and the difficult ones, (whether obvious or subtle), can cause us to go through life merely surviving or struggling. It is also common that life and soul work is just as challenging as the issues bringing you into therapy. That can make you feel alone and/ or lost or stuck! My role is to fill that gap.
With a peer-to-peer approach, exchanging stories and experiences, utilizing practical and applicable tools in real time, we give your mental health the attention you deserve.

Chronic Illness Therapists
How does therapy for chronic illness work?
Many people living with a chronic illness may feel they cannot speak honestly about their experience out of embarrassment or fear of being a burden, or because those close to them do not understand, for example, that they may “look good” even if they do not feel good. Therapy sessions are an opportunity to speak openly with someone who knows their symptoms are not in their head and who can offer practical, proven suggestions for managing feelings of grief, shame, or fatigue, such as techniques to challenge unhelpful thoughts about symptoms and develop new ways to respond to them, such as distraction or calming breathing practices.
Can therapy help with physical symptoms of chronic illness?
Yes, especially if an individual with chronic illness has developed depression. People with depression are less likely to maintain their health treatment regimens or to take positive steps to manage physical symptoms when they arise, thereby potentially complicating their medical prognosis. Treatment of depression, through talk therapy, medication, or both, will often improve one’s physical state as it eases the emotional burden of illness.
What are the most effective treatment options for chronic illness?
No one living with a chronic illness, or their loved ones, should see depression as an unavoidable result of their condition. Instead, they should actively seek treatment. Research shows that people with depression are less likely to devote the required time and effort to maintaining or monitoring their health, and so therapy to limit the risk of depression can be vital for physical health as well. Therapeutic approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness-based stress reduction have been found to help individuals reduce stress and anxiety.
How long does therapy for chronic illness take?
There is no set timeline for therapy for people living with chronic illnesses, but many will see a therapist for a number of weeks or months, typically spanning at least 12 weekly sessions. Some people feel that they experience progress faster than others but even some who quickly feel improvement may continue with sessions for months or years. Some people may benefit from maintenance therapy if their symptoms change or they experience a decline in physical health. Others find that the skills learned in short-term therapy can be used on an ongoing basis, even after therapy has concluded.
