I believe therapy is a gift that allows one's inner strength to emerge while our personal journey through life's experiences makes us who we are. My own journey has led me to my career as a therapist which allows me the honor and opportunity to work together with my clients to recognize their own strengths and limitations in achieving their goals. All this takes place within a strong, non-judgmental, therapeutic relationship that is built on empathy, trust, safety, and compassion. I have a calm, warm, relaxed style and believe in creating a safe space for you where compassion, support, and humour can live.

My clients are driven professionals, often in finance, private equity, law and ranging from junior level to leadership—who feel stretched between high performance and personal wellbeing. Many struggle with chronic stress, sleeplessness, burnout, or the sense that success comes at the expense of balance. They want to perform at a high level but also feel grounded, focused, and fulfilled.

We have all had moments where we felt we needed someone to speak to. Deciding to start therapy is one of the hardest and bravest steps to take, and I applaud you for doing so. As your counselor, I will strive to help you reach the clarity you may be seeking, and guide you through your problems. I like to use a person-centered approach, meaning my priority will always be your welfare and health. As a South Asian woman, I also strive to create a safe space for South Asians as well, as cultural stigmas may often make it difficult to seek therapy. If you need someone to talk to in a judgement-free environment, I will be there.

I believe that healing happens as we experience healing relationships and 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 queer-identifying therapist, I welcome discussions around intersectionality, identity, and how our difference/sameness affects our therapeutic relationship.

Life doesn't always unfold as planned. Sometimes we lose ourselves in relationships, face unexpected transitions, or carry wounds that quietly shape how we move through the world. I know this intimately-not just as a therapist, but as someone who has lived it. As a therapist of color with South Asian roots and nearly two decades of experience across three continents, I work with high achievers and global citizens navigating trauma, grief, complex relational and career transitions, and living between cultures-those seeking to develop deeper self-awareness, heal past pain, and find meaning beyond external success.
