Finding the right therapist can feel overwhelming - especially if you're used to being the one others rely on. I work from a CBT-informed and DBT skills approach, helping people understand how thoughts, emotions, and behaviors interact, while building practical tools to manage life more effectively.
As a Clinical Certified Trauma Professional, I approach trauma with care, patience, and respect for each individuals pace. Trauma doesn't always come from one event - it can build over time through chronic stress, loss, or repeated exposure to high-stakes situations.

When you’re used to working hard, fixing problems, and pushing through, it can feel strange when those same strengths stop working the way they used to. Maybe you’re going through a big change; a new job, an injury, a loss (life is full of losses other than deaths), or just realizing that you’re not really enjoying life the way you’d like to. You don’t have to face that alone. I work with people who are used to being the strong ones but are finding that it’s getting harder to keep everything bottled up.

Hello. I'm a Psychotherapist with over 10 years of experience helping high-distress professionals and veterans who look high functioning on the outside but feel overwhelmed, stuck, or out of control beneath the surface. Many people I speak with during a consultation share that they feel tired of years of individual therapy and/or couples counseling without seeing or feeling the change they deeply want. They may feel exhausted from talking about the same problems without finding a real solution, unsure why change has been so hard. When hope starts to feel impossible, therapy can help you do more than talk. Consults are free.

I believe healing happens as we experience healing relationships. In our time together, we will work to build trust amongst us to help you transform. The therapeutic process can be a mirror for how you show up for yourself and navigate your personal relationships — as we build safety and capacity in the therapy room, you will simultaneously realize that you hold much more safety and capacity within yourself. As an Indian-American therapist, I welcome discussions around intersectionality, identity, and how our difference/sameness affects our therapeutic relationship.

Sexual Addiction Therapists
When should someone seek treatment for sex addiction?
People should seek treatment for sex addiction if they cannot control their sexual thoughts or behaviours to the point that it disrupts their ability to function in daily life, for example by threatening their finances, career, or relationships. This may include spending an excessive amount of time obsessing over sex, planning sex, watching pornography, or masturbating, as well as consistently engaging in risky sexual activities, using sex to escape distressing feelings, or attempting yet failing to control sexual behavior.
What are the most common treatment options for sex addiction?
Psychotherapy is the most common treatment for sex addiction; therapy helps patients better understand their compulsive thoughts and behaviors and develop strategies to manage their desires. Therapy may be supplemented by medications, such as antidepressants, mood stabilizers, anti-androgens, and the alcohol and substance use medication Naltrexone, as well as support groups, such as 12-step programs.
How long does therapy take for sex addiction?
Recovering from compulsive behavior takes time and effort. There’s no precise timeline for treatment, but research suggests 12 therapy sessions may be enough to see change. Treatment for sexual compulsions requires honesty in therapy, a commitment to understanding triggers and developing coping skills, and potential lifestyle changes such as cutting out alcohol or drugs.
What if sex addiction is left untreated?
Compulsive sexual behavior can have serious repercussions if left unaddressed. For example, if sexual obsessions consume the vast majority of a person’s time, they may lose their job. If they can’t stop paying for sex, their finances may suffer. If they’re dishonest in their relationships, their partner may leave them. If they consistently feel shame, they may struggle with anxiety, depression, or loneliness. Therapy can help people develop the tools to manage sexual thoughts and behaviors that feel uncontrollable.
