About

As a queer South Asian woman and a child of immigrants, I know how it feels to struggle under the weight of others' expectations. If you're wishing you could move through life differently, let's turn a new page together. I believe the magic of therapy is telling your story out loud, feeling listened to, and building trust in yourself. Sessions with me are non-judgmental spaces that are wholly yours, where you can comfortably share your struggles. By weaving together Relational-Cultural Therapy and Narrative Therapy, we can explore your story, uncover patterns, and write a new chapter. I work with individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, life stressors, and those navigating LGBTQ+ and cultural identities. I also work with couples of all identities, helping partners see each other more clearly. I’m here to help you know yourself better, clarify what matters most, and take action in line with your values. Starting your therapeutic journey can feel intimidating, but taking one small, fearful step forward might make a bigger difference than comfortably standing still. I would be honored to walk alongside you on your new path.
