I'M NOT good enough, I'M NOT lovable, & I'M not WORTHY! Sound familiar? Does it look "PERFECT" on the outside but you struggle internally? Does something feel off even though it seems life is all together? We live in a fast-paced world. The expectation is for us to have everything together: the perfect relationship, job, home, friends, body, high self-esteem, and social media life. - - - - - - - - - - - - The reality is, we have real emotions, feelings, and life challenges. Even the strongest of us need some support in forcing our inner self-sabotaging critic to sashay away. Together, let's create the life you've always wanted.

It's time- New year, new You. Stressed out & Burned out from everyday life and years of trauma, feels suffocating. Being fed up, defeated, exhausted, & fatigued. There's no place to recharge. It's a struggle of surviving Desi values in an all- American society HECK- being a Desi kid is hard. Adulting, juggling kids, managing parents, and a job is even harder. Life keeps getting harder and you have no choice but to keep going. Feelings of dread keep you up at night, disrupts your work, and destroys your relationships.

This may not be an easy time in your life and I respect your courage to reach out for help. Hiding fear of failure or family pressure to be perfect and make it look effortless is a daily struggle. I know you can be overwhelmed. Frustrated and angry. I have lived it and have decades of experience. After facing the pressure from parents, peers, or yourself, you need a place to sort out who you are and how you fit into these pieces. You may be looking for a safe place to work through your challenges, such as when you are experiencing anxiety or depression, or even a unique cultural experience that you feel nobody understands.

Take a deep dive into your authentic self to harness your greater impact in the world and within your relationships. Few gifts are more precious than the gift of access to your inner life.

Whether it is resolving a past trauma or enhancing your daily functioning, I provide a compassionate space for greater impact for those in the public space - doctors, ceos, entrepreneurs, athletes, and their families. I am a skilled coach/psychologist/couples therapist with NPR interviews, NYT mentions, TV appearances, and author of internationally acclaimed books.

I believe the role of a therapist is to help create positive change by collaborating in a non-judgmental and mutual relationship. I endeavor to help my clients develop self-awareness and achieve their potential, enabling them to find their own answers and make transformative changes. I sensitively deal with individual and systematic/cultural influences to ensure clients’ goals and actions are manageable, realistic, and sustainable. For me, recognizing everyone’s identity and experiences, and inclusion is crucial to implementing strategies and tools that allow each individual to thrive, and to feel appreciated, seen, and heard.

As a South Asian woman and a therapist for over 7 years, I understand how culture plays a huge role in our unique challenges and expectations.
