You may be experiencing emotional, physical, or spiritual difficulties that feel overwhelming. These challenges often originate from identifiable patterns such as fears, avoidance, irritability, and pervasive fatigue or exhaustion. Developing awareness around these underlying processes can foster a deeper, more compassionate understanding of your experience. Approaching yourself with curiosity can foster growth, resilience, and self-efficacy; and, engender sense of calm, stability, and clarity, empowering you to navigate life’s challenges. Ultimately, you'll be feeling increased strength, confidence, and a stronger sense of agency.
I work with my clients from a collaborative theoretical approach that often leans on attachment-focused, person-centered, and culturally informed practices. My specialties are in Insomnia and Sleep disorders, PTSD and acute trauma, and gastrointestinal health.
My goal at Kothari Wellness is to provide a safe, open, and non-judgmental space for you to share and explore your needs and gain tools to help you live a vital, compassionate, and grounded lifestyle. It is my hope that my support and guidance will provide you with the tools that will help you find clarity and balance.
