My identities as a South Asian, Muslim, first-generation American have given me true empathy, understanding, and an additional skill set to help meet the needs of those communities.
Accepting new clients in TX & NY! - Are you struggling with your identity or traumas? Do you need help managing the multiple stressors in your life? Or maybe your anxiety is getting the best of you and you want to improve communication in your relationships? Acknowledging that you need help is the first step, so I'm glad you're here. I know firsthand how daunting it can be to reach out, and I hope you know how brave you are. If you're ready to make a change, or even if you're on the fence, I would love to see if we're a good fit for one another.

Have you ever looked in the mirror and thought that you should be further along in life by now? As an Asian American, you feel unsatisfied with where you are currently at in life, but you don't know where you should be headed. You might even feel like you lack the confidence to pursue your dreams. Maybe you also struggle with finding yourself again after having a baby.

I work with people who are struggling with anxiety, life transitions, self-esteem, as well as the BIPOC community struggling with identity issues, trauma and family conflict specifically in the Asian American community.
Are you feeling overwhelmed with the expectations and pressures of life? Do you feel lost or riddled with overthinking, which causes you to be unproductive and emotionally vulnerable? I understand when life feels routinely intrusive, it is hard to know what to do next: contact me. I offer you a safe space to be heard, validated, encouraged, and challenged.

I am multiracial with both Asian and Jewish parents, which has helped me be sensitive to how different our experiences can be within the same macroculture.
The goal is for my clients to walk away with the same curiosity and unconditional positive regard for themselves that I cultivate with them in our sessions. Through the gentle untying of the knots of trauma along with reinforcement of strengths and resources, the internal compass can once again be recalibrated toward joy, with intention and self-compassion. Sessions with me involve curiosity, education, and concrete practices that will help shift your perspective on your internal and external experiences, and give you the knowledge necessary to get you back in the driver's seat of your life.

I’m also experienced in and passionate about supporting the LGBTQIA+ and Asian American communities.
Knowing ourselves can be tough. Accepting and loving ourselves? Even tougher. So if you’re struggling with anxiety, low self-esteem, understanding your identity, or navigating relationships with loved ones who may or may not accept you for who you are – well, you definitely aren’t alone! As a teen and even into adulthood, there can be a lot of stumbling blocks on the path toward celebrating who you really are. It can be a challenging journey… But the good news? It’s not a journey you need to take by yourself. You can find support and guidance along the way. And it can all feel a lot easier than it might right now.
