I value creating a collaborative relationship that fosters trust and safety by infusing warmth, curiosity, humor, and authenticity into how I relate to others. As I learn more about your experiences, we will work together to explore your concerns and identify techniques to better manage them. I listen for patterns to help you draw connections between current and past life events and how they are impacting you in the present. I hope to create a space for you to bravely reflect on changes you want to make in your life that will lead to a more fulfilling present and future.
As a South Asian American and child of immigrants, I have seen in my community and clinical work how cultural identities (gender, ethnicity, sexual identity, religion, and others) interact with our mental health. I am passionate about working with individuals exploring, negotiating, and balancing various cultural values and navigating several identities.
It would be my privilege to cheer for you, challenge you, and support you through this journey towards improving your self-awareness and emotional well-being. Please do not hesitate to reach out if you are interested in connecting or have further questions about my approach.
