About My Clients
If you feel trapped by uncertainty, cycling thoughts, self-criticism, making decisions, emotions, relationships, or trauma symptoms - you have come to the right place. My therapeutic process seeks to understand who you are, who you want to be, and how we can tap into your inner wisdom to enact the change you desire.
My Background and Approach
I integrate my extensive training in both evidence-based behavioral therapy (DBT and CBT) with somatic body-oriented practice to let your nervous system heal in tandem with your mind. I am one of the few South Asian women who is intensively trained in DBT through Behavioral Tech. I also bring my journey rooted in Eastern wisdom traditions, yoga, meditation, mindfulness and expressive arts. I will support you in cultivating skills and designing practical experiments that will reduce your suffering. Working with me looks like challenging norms and expectations that you feel you “should” live up to. Together, we’ll uncover the roots of your familiar patterns and behaviors that have likely helped you survive so you can finally thrive.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I believe you are the expert of your own life. My style is trauma-informed, collaborative, and places your personal, cultural and familial history at the forefront of our work. As a first-generation South Asian immigrant, I am especially passionate about working with individuals from the South Asian diaspora and with other racial minority communities. I am attuned to the impacts of race-based stress, culture, family pressure, mental health stigma, queer and trans-phobia and intersectional marginalization.
