I specialize in supporting young adults and adults—especially first-generation South Asian and culturally diverse individuals—who are navigating trauma, anxiety, depression, and family or relationship challenges. Many of my clients are high-functioning and appear to be doing well on the outside, while privately carrying the weight of stress, self-doubt, or past pain.
I offer a gentle, culturally affirming space where you can slow down and feel safe to explore your story. My approach integrates EMDR, mindfulness, DBT, and nature-based ecotherapy, with a strong focus on the mind-body connection.
You deserve a space where you feel seen, safe, and supported. Whether you're navigating anxiety, trauma, or cultural stress, I'm here to walk alongside you with compassion and care. Healing is possible—and you don’t have to do it alone. My current availability is Monday-Thursday 9am-2pm (virtual or in-person).
