  • I am a Nationally Accredited, Licensed Professional Counselor with extensive experience working with adults and adolescents in her 6+ years of practicing therapy. My expertise includes generational trauma, navigating South Asian identity childhood or relationship trauma, substance use issues, life transitions, self esteem, mental health issues and relationship challenges. I am trained in Cognitive Processing Therapy, Brainspotting Phase 1 and Gottman Level 1 for couples. My approach involves understanding who you are as a person first and the unique complexities that make up who you are, while tapping into your strengths and incorporating other therapeutic techniques when appropriate.

    As a second-generation South Asian, I understand and have personally navigated cultural differences, family dynamics, and the impact of unresolved trauma or navigating a bicultural identity. Cultural and generational traumas might have been normalized or brushed aside during one's upbringing. Therapy can be a powerful step toward addressing and healing these issues. My goal is to provide a non-judgmental, comfortable environment where progress happens at the client's pace. No blank slate here!
