Hey there,

I believe that therapy works best as a partnership. I strive to offer a space where you can feel heard, supported, and understood—without judgment. I work primarily with teens and adults, focusing on helping you navigate through life’s complexities with insight and resilience. I frequently help clients with challenges related to anxiety, depression, self-concept, eating disorders, and women’s issues, but I always take an individualized approach.

As a South Asian therapist, my work is especially centered on individuals from diverse backgrounds. I’m committed to creating an environment that honors the unique perspectives and needs of those who identify as BIPOC.

I know it’s not always easy to take that first step, so I’m grateful you’re here. With the right support, you can reconnect with yourself and start feeling better. If you have any questions or need more information about how we can work together, I’m here to help.
