Are you a queer, BIPOC, or neurodivergent person struggling with relentless self-criticism? It might feel like you can’t stop beating yourself up and feeling like you’re not good enough, no matter how hard you try. Your self-doubt could be reinforced by others treating you differently and the systemic oppression which is present in so many aspects of our world today. If you’re ready to escape from a shame spiral, you’ve come to the right place. Welcome! My name is Sajl, and I'm a nonbinary and South Asian therapist based in Frisco, TX!
I work with teens and adults via telehealth to liberate themselves from self-hatred. My goal is to provide you with an affirming, compassionate, and honest therapeutic space in which you are free to explore and understand where these beliefs stem from. Together, we’ll get to the root cause of your pain and help you develop a kinder inner voice.
As a young queer person of color, I know what it’s like to be unsure of whether aspects of my identity will be accepted in new spaces. Rest assured, every aspect of what makes you who you are is invited when we share space together. My therapeutic approach is culturally sensitive, identity-affirming, and liberation-centered.

I work with folks who have experienced childhood/complex/developmental trauma and want to begin (or have already begun!) the process of unlearning the beliefs and behaviors that aided in surviving the chaotic environment you may have been brought up in, but are no longer serving you. We'll face feelings and thoughts with compassion and kindness to help you move towards the person you want to be.
