About My Clients
As an Indo-Caribbean-American therapist, I resonate with mental health struggles, especially those mired in cultural stigmas. My Guyanese upbringing, where emotions weren't often shared, gave me firsthand experience of feeling misunderstood. I understand the unique identities and experiences that mold our mental health outlooks.
My Background and Approach
My therapeutic approach incorporates a multicultural lens, using evidence-based practices such as mindfulness, person-centered therapy, and cognitive-behavioral therapy. I create a safe and inclusive space that respects your values and beliefs. Whether navigating a mental health condition, seeking to improve relationships, or working through past traumas, I support you. You can expect a safe, non-judgmental space to explore your thoughts and feelings in our sessions. I'm passionate about helping you develop self-awareness and cultivate mindfulness daily. By nurturing these skills, we can foster inner peace and better equip you to manage difficult emotions.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I'm particularly aware of the harmful narratives that can affect our lives—like feeling shamed for vulnerability or gaslighting ourselves into thinking our problems don't exist. I want to challenge these perspectives. I aim to deconstruct the stigmas surrounding mental health, encouraging you to see your feelings as strengths, not signs of weakness or immaturity. Building trust with you is a process I respect. I want to earn your trust, not demand it. And as we journey together, I'll remind you that having these feelings does not make you 'different' or inferior. It's okay to cry; it's okay to feel.
