My training and life experiences have taught me to see people as far more whole and capable than they often feel in difficult moments of life. Many people go through experiences that leave them emotionally overwhelmed, disconnected from themselves, stuck in limiting beliefs, or simply not living the meaningful and fulfilling life they truly want.
My approach is collaborative, compassionate, and grounded in seeing the full person, not just symptoms or diagnoses. Together, we work to better understand what may be getting in the way and create a path forward that feels authentic and sustainable.

For over a decade, I have been working with adults, adolescents, couples, and families.

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.

I specialize in trauma and PTSD and have worked extensively with adult and adolescent survivors of childhood sexual abuse, domestic violence, sexual assault, and relational trauma for 15 years.
Traumatic events overwhelm our capacity to cope and lead to profound changes in the brain and body. Trauma can lead to feelings of self blame, shame, and isolation. Due to a fear that the world is no longer safe, people develop ways of protecting themselves. These defenses, while once helpful, often negatively impact the way one functions in their job, school, and relationships. Thankfully, we all have within us a fundamental need to flourish and thrive.

Prior to becoming a forensic social worker, I spent 6 years working with victims of sexual assault, of all ages and genders.
My ideal client is motivated to work and understand the issues before them. They are able to take real talk, sprinkled with a little good natured sarcasm and humor, to tackle their challenges. I enjoy working with law enforcement and those who have served, but welcome anyone that feels that I might be a good fit for them. Any client that sees me should anticipate real talk about their current situations and reasons for seeking treatment. They will also soon know that they'll receive genuine compassion and solution focused conversations, to move them to a better place than where they were when they began the journey with me.

Sexual Abuse Therapists
How do therapists treat sexual abuse?
A good therapist will be nonjudgmental and possibly demonstrate active listening, repeating back what the client says to show that they have understood. These skills allow people to feel comfortable discussing their traumatic experiences openly. Some important treatment goals are to restore a sense of safety and to rebuild confidence. In addition to working one-on-one with the patient, a therapist might bring in supportive family members to assist the client.
Do you have to talk extensively about sexual abuse in therapy?
Survivors frequently find it difficult to describe what happened to them out loud. They can even still be in a state of denial if the sexual abuse occurred recently. It is important for survivors to acknowledge that what happened isn’t their fault and to challenge and reappraise any unhealthy feelings or thoughts as they arise. Art therapy and play therapy are useful non-verbal means of communication for some survivors.
How long does treatment for sexual abuse take?
Recovery from sexual abuse can be a long and difficult process. Some survivors are able to move on naturally on their own, given time, while others require the guidance of a trained therapist. Therapy needs vary and can range from a few sessions to months or even years. Healing from sexual abuse takes time, and everyone’s journey will look a little different.
Can trauma symptoms caused by sexual abuse come back after treatment?
As occurs in many cases of trauma, survivors of sexual abuse may experience PTSD-like symptoms long after the abuse has ceased or after an initial round of treatment has occurred. In such a case, there is evidence that prolonged exposure therapy is a useful treatment for survivors, and may be more efficacious than supportive counseling alone. While triggers may continue to cause distress, the idea is that, with time and repeated exposure, their power will fade, allowing survivors to move on with their lives.
