In a world that has become divided and disconnected, RIA Psychological Services offers a space for healing and growth, helping you rediscover how to connect to yourself and others. Connection with family, friends, community, and connection to nature is essential for our well-being. We are interconnected and must recognize that our physical and mental health is impacted by the health of our relationships, our environments, and our planet. I enjoy working with clients from all walks of life and take a collaborative approach in helping clients Rediscover Interconnected Awareness.
My specialities: depression, anxiety, body image, PGM/BIPOC issues, relationships & divorce, alcohol & drug addictions, trauma, ADHD, life transitions, LGBTQIA support, intergenerational trauma & resilience, climate dread/climate change anxiety, and immigration/acculturation issues. I work with kids, teens & adults. I'm a PsyPact member licensed in IL.
I practice cross-cultural psychology from a systemic orientation and as a trauma-informed therapist, I draw heavily from IFS (Internal Family Systems), EFT (Emotionally Focused Therapy), and the Gottman Method in case conceptualization. I have traveled extensively internationally and am well-versed in both English and Urdu/Hindi.
