I specialize in working with neurodivergent adults- so folks who, for diverse reasons feel like their brains work different from most i.e. Autistic, ADHD, complex PTSD, HSP, queer, BIPOC, etc.; and those differences have limited their access to community or feeling like they're living a full life. Some common difficulties for neurodivergent adults include: chronic anxiety, feeling lonely or isolated, recurrent depression, communication difficulties, low self esteem, and general difficulty with "people-ing".

Being a woman, especially a Desi/Indian woman is unique experience. Our family dynamics are unique, our relationship challenges are different, and we have to play by our cultural rules that can rarely be understood by someone outside of our culture. In such situations, it can be easy to feel alone and isolated as we deal with our family problems, marital challenges, or even workplace related stress. With me, as your Indian therapist, you don't have to constantly code-switch and explain every tiny aspect of your culture and life. I get it. I am one of us.

My goal as a counselor is to help people find strength and courage to explore their challenging or adverse thoughts and feelings in depth, and to learn how to experience those thoughts and feelings in a healthy and effective way. I see the counselor and client walk alongside each other to explore these experiences, with the outcome as finding a way for the client to live authentically for themselves, and in relation to others. This is based on a belief that each individual is their own phenomenon carrying a unique and powerful interpretation of the world, one which can be utilized in healing, growth, and change.

Therapy is a process of self discovery. I have been working with children, teens and adults for 10 years now and what I have come to realize is that in order to live a life where you are not just surviving but rather thriving, it is best to find a balance with the mind, body and spirit. When we are not in balance life can feel overwhelming, sad, frustrating and challenging. When we experience trauma, grief, addictions, lack of self worth and purpose or any other issues, life can feel out of control and just too much. Sometimes we need a bounce board, assistance or guidance to find our way forward.

The therapeutic relationship is a very important part of therapy. Often times clients explore their relational attachments, bonds and experiences through their relationship with their therapist. I aim to provide a safe and comfortable environment. I believe everyone can achieve an optimum state of health. Often times humans do not change until facing a crisis, or having suffered. Together we can help you to learn more about who you are and how you relate to the world around you and what may need to change. We all need to be comfortable with change as “the only thing that is constant is change” (philosopher Heraclitus)

My approach is positive and draws on my client's strengths and resources. My counseling is a blend of insight oriented therapy and practical interventions and is informed by psychodynamic, cognitive behavioral and mindfulness-based theories. I support a holistic model of health and can coordinate care with other wellness providers as desired.

I specialize in working with queer and trans folx. Living in Central Oregon is often very isolating for this population and I would like my practice to support them. My background and training is in supporting pre-teens, teens, and young adults who are being oppressed by the system. I have worked with clients on probation and parole for multiple years and have experience in supporting through that experience. I also focus my practice on non-white individuals, the generational trauma that non-white folx continue to navigate every day.

You are bright, sensitive, and insightful but either feel like you’re stuck on ON (easily startled, racing thoughts that are difficult to control or turn off, struggling to relax and feeling flooded emotionally), or stuck on OFF (flat, lethargic, exhausted, foggy, unmotivated and disconnected from your vitality and energy). You may have even spent years in talk therapy, gained a lot of insight but have hit a plateau and may be wondering if you’re not meant to fully heal or if therapy actually works. It is possible to deeply heal - you just need an approach that supports your life's history and how it's stored in your body.

Coming into a civilization that values separation and individualistic ways I became enlightened by the deep rooted connection and harmony the mind, body, and soul were craving. The suppression of our innate human parts has created exhaustion and burnout that instills conditioning of shame, guilt and fear. My mission is to provide a meaningful safe space to shed these burdens brought on by unrealistic standards of society, family, and our institutions and connect with the healing allies of the earth to remember how to be in alignment with our full embodied selves.

Are you feeling overwhelmed and not like yourself lately? What would it be like to step outside your day-to-day life and into a welcoming, supportive space that’s just for you? You can finally pause, take a breath, and process what’s been going on. Sometimes it’s a specific event or issue that has come up, but it can also feel like so many things are weighing on you that you don’t know where to begin. I specialize in working with adult women, including other counselors and healthcare professionals.

Struggling with relationships, disturbing emotions, traumatic pasts, despair, addictions, utter confusion, all of this has meaning and the potential to propel us toward a better life. My job is to help people understand the process of what's happening and provide tools, skills and insights to navigate not just this situation, but future ones as well. So often people focus on symptoms instead of causes. Sometimes it's about managing symptoms, but more often there awaits an opportunity to get to the root and grow through and beyond this obstacle, to be more aware, capable and resilient than ever before.
