Sikh Therapists in Frisco, TX
Building a trusting, compassionate relationship is my foremost priority in therapy. I help clients develop strengths, assertiveness, and resiliency to cope with life's challenges while reorienting to more adaptive thoughts + feelings, improving relationships and increasing attunement. I believe that our brains are naturally adaptive and a clear understanding of how your mind works can empower healthy change. That’s why I use a combination of attachment theory, trauma-informed mindfulness, CBT (cognitive behavioral therapy), EMDR (eye movement desensitization reprocessing), and Gottman Institute's research-based approach to therapy.

Life has blindsided you: a sudden loss, an unexpected move, a relationship on the brink, or an anxiety that refuses to quiet down. You are the dependable one for everyone else, yet exhaustion, worry, and self-doubt now fill the spaces where confidence once lived. You want sleep that restores, days that feel purposeful, and a mind that is kinder to itself. Most of all, you long to feel at home in your own skin again.

Have you worked hard to achieve the American Dream, and are wondering when you'll finally start feeling comfortable or content? Have you done everything you could to embody the Model Minority myth, and still feel hollow inside? Have you checked all the boxes... except for those few that would unlock conditional love and respect from those you cherish?
Hiding behind your well-cultivated mask may be feelings of disillusionment, discontentment, or disconnection. Perhaps your mask is also hiding feelings of despair, shame, or guilt. Looking to experience life more true to you and in line with your values?

Life can be wonderful, interesting, challenging but no one ever said it would be easy! Never before have we faced such a difficult onslaught of problems affecting our work, school, social and even medical aspects of our lives. The good news is that counseling has never been easier to access. Our friends tell us what we want to hear, counselors tell us what we need to hear and give us the tools to make changes to help us on our journey. I have been a counselor since 1991 and am just as passionate about my work today as the day I started.

Are you feeling stuck? You know something that happened in the past is affecting you, but you aren’t sure what to do about it. You’ve tried figuring things out and moving forward on your own. Maybe you’ve even tried therapy before, sorted through things with your friends, or read self-help books. Maybe you’re feeling depressed, anxious, or on-edge and you suspect - or know - that it’s related to something that happened in your past. Are you ready for things to change?

Have you ever felt trapped in the endless hallways of your own mind? Like you’re walking through the same fears, worries, memories, and patterns over and over again, unable to find the exit?
Trauma, anxiety, grief, and difficult life experiences can create what I call the “Backrooms of the Mind”—hidden places where old wounds, limiting beliefs, and unresolved emotions continue to influence our lives long after the original event has passed.

I work with adults who have been dealing with OCD, anxiety, trauma, or body-focused repetitive behaviors for a long time — often quietly, often without anyone knowing how much headspace it takes up. They are people who have tried generic therapy, been told coping skills would help, or given reassurance that never really stuck. They may be high achievers, professionals, parents, or creatives who manage outwardly but feel exhausted inwardly. They want something more precise than supportive talk and more direct than vague advice.

I strongly believe that each person on this planet is looking for a safe place to feel comfortable exploring their true self. I would love to provide that space and help you on your journey.

You've probably been managing for a long time. Managing the family dynamics, the work pressure, the things that happened before you had words for them. And for a while, managing works...until it doesn't. I work with individuals, families, and professionals who are ready to stop just getting through it and start actually understanding it. That includes siblings and parents navigating complicated family systems, first-generation children carrying cultural expectations that were never theirs to carry alone, and high-achieving people in demanding careers who have never had a space that was fully theirs.

Starting therapy is a courageous act of self compassion. And look at you, you're doing it! Counseling is one part of life where you don’t need a path figured out to begin. We will start from where you are and go from there. Maybe you are recognizing that you practice ineffective coping skills and engage in unhelpful patterns that no longer serve you. You are ready to learn a new way. That takes courage. That is strength!
I work with adults who are ready for a change. In our work together, you’ll find you're accepted just as you are, while also holding that you can create meaningful change in your life. I am so happy you are here!

You're not falling apart, you're exhausted from pretending you're not. Maybe you keep shrinking yourself to keep the peace — in a friendship, at home, in love. Maybe you've spent years measuring yourself against a beauty standard that was never built for you, wondering if you're finally enough. You're ambitious, self-aware, and tired of patterns you can't seem to break — in love, in family, in how you show up for people who don't show up for you. If you're a woman navigating self-worth, body image, or relationships that take more than they give, you're exactly who I work with.
