About My Clients

Are you looking for a space where you can show up just as you are with your complex emotions, life's obstacles, and everything in between? I offer warm, accepting, trauma-informed virtual therapy for individuals and couples across NY and FL. My approach is grounded in curiosity, compassion, and cultural sensitivity. I believe that therapy isn't about "fixing" you, it's about reconnecting with yourself, gaining insight, and fostering growth in your most meaningful relationships.

My Background and Approach

Therapy is your space to be your true self, to feel vulnerable, and express the more difficult emotions. In our therapeutic journey, we will think about how your early childhood experiences have impacted your current interpersonal relationships and how your identities have been shaped by your environment. I do not believe that therapy can be a "cure," rather it can be insightful and healing, allowing you to grow towards the best version of yourself. I use an eclectic approach, including psychodynamic and attachment-based concepts alongside Cognitive Behavioral techniques to inform my work.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I recognize the courage it takes to reach out for extra support, particularly due to stigma. Part of my beliefs are to de-stigmatize therapy and cultivate an environment, in which people feel safe to share what they may not be able to in other spaces. My unique, yet collective experiences as a child of immigrant parents and a South Asian woman allow me to recognize how family expectations, cultural identity, gender identity, and other parts of ourselves are important in the therapy work. Our practice is able to offer low cost therapy, starting at $50 per week. I would be happy to share more about these options on a complimentary video call. Let's explore your story together!
