I love building relationships, and helping you explore the patterns and past experiences that shape your life today. I use a trauma-informed approach, which means co-creating safety and autonomy in session so that you can build trust in yourself. I love working with folks that are interested in reflective conversation, mindfulness, parts work, and body awareness as tools to know themselves more deeply. My identities as a biracial immigrant, abolitionist, and reproductive justice advocate inform my practice, and I come to therapy with the awareness that systemic inequity impacts our mental health.

Is your heart heavy from various forms of trauma, resulting in C-PTSD/PTSD, panic attacks, anxiety, addiction, or dissociation? Do you feel alone and stuck? Do you always end up in similar toxic relationships? Do you always feel psychologically unsafe or powerless even when there is no more abuse? Do you feel overwhelmed and use external resource to try to forget or numb the pain? I understand how trauma can lead to mental and behavioral challenges. Trauma can prevent you from living authentically, triggering fear-based reactions and self-defeating thoughts. I'm here to help you unravel some of these thoughts and find inner peace.

Relationships are challenging and trauma, depression, anxiety, PTSD, worry, shame and guilt are just some of the things that can hinder you from not only achieving a healthy relationship but also being the best version of yourself. As a Couples and Family therapist I help individuals, couples and families achieve relationship satisfaction, gain a deeper understanding of self and each other and heal from wounds that are negatively impacting the ability to heal. I believe that each individual in a relationship has their own individual thoughts and beliefs that are impacted by childhood and the families we are born into.

I have experience working with individual adults and partnerships in areas such as anxiety, depression, sex & intimate wellness, relationship conflict, sexual assault, life transitions, and self esteem. One of my primary areas of expertise is working with members of the LGBTQ+ community in areas of positive sexual and/ or gender identity, coming out, transitioning, and sexual health. However, I work with people of all identities and backgrounds. I foster a therapeutic space that is identity-affirming, sex-positive, and polyamorous- and kink-affirming.

In the therapeutic setting, my goal is to provide clients the space to be their most authentic selves. Too often in society, we are forced to wear a façade, or be a fraction of ourselves in any given space, for fear of being “too much” or fear of not being accepted fully. In our sessions, I encourage you to take up space unapologetically. I love being able to help my clients discover their real selves and give them the tools to overcome any obstacles in their journeys towards wellness. I show up to sessions as my authentic self, and I encourage my clients to do the same. The work begins where the masks end.

My approach to therapy is grounded in the belief that each individual has the capacity to affect change in his/her life. I also believe in my responsibility to actively engage with my client and facilitate their movement through their issues and feelings. Different theoretical interventions may be more facilitative depending on one's particular needs, one's background, one's view of the world, and one's capacity for insight. As a therapist, I truly consider the individual as a whole and attempt to utilize the most effective tool to facilitate progress towards independent wellness given the particular needs and challenges of my client.

I deeply believe in the potential for healing when people feel safe to be vulnerable in trusting relationships. I collaborate with others to transform painful experiences into generative opportunities for growth so that you can create the life you want to live. As a queer South Asian American woman, I am attuned to the complexity of navigating differences in culture, race, gender, sexuality, religion, class, politics, and more in families and relationships. I utilize an intersectional feminist and anti-oppressive framework in my work with individuals and couples who are navigating conflict and seeking better self-understanding.
