Depression is a mental health disorder that affects mood, including how you feel, think, and behave. Everyone feels sad sometimes, but when it starts to affect your ability to perform daily tasks and your ability to enjoy things that typically bring you happiness, you may be suffering from depression. The symptoms of depression vary from person to person, but often include feeling miserable without a clear reason why, anxiety, agitation, insomnia or sleeping too much, hopelessness, changes in eating, and/or foggy thinking. Depression may also cause recurrent thoughts of death or suicide (or even a wish that it would all 'stop' in an abstract sense). If you think you might be suffering from depression, a qualified mental health therapist can help. Reach out to one of TherapyDen’s depression experts today!
Are you or your child feeling anxious all the time? Always on high alert, edgy and ready to snap? Have you been through a traumatic or stressful event and have a hard time coping? Do you feel hopeless, stuck, lost or unmoored? Is your child acting out, and you can’t figure out why? These symptoms are our soul’s way of letting us know we need support. I can help you safely work through difficult issues and experiences, and learn new skills to effectively make your way through this complex world.

I work with clients who exhibit a range of needs. Whether you are struggling with symptoms of depression, anxiety, grief and loss, ADHD, OCD, substance use or another "disorder" that is causing you distress, we can work together to help ease your symptoms. I have worked closely with the perinatal community and have extensive knowledge of the postpartum experience.

I have a special passion for working with artists and creative professionals as they wrestle with fears, fantasies, depressions, manias, and all the challenges not only of making art but of making a living through art. I also love working with adolescents — how I wish I'd had a therapist when I was in high school! — as well as folks working through addiction and recovery. I also work with couples of all stripes and with patients who are, like me, part of the LGBTQIA+ community.

Therapy is successful when you have a therapist who understands you AND knows how to help you. I work with men and women navigating relationships, marriage, anxiety/depression, major life transitions, and family conflicts all while trying to integrate two very different cultures – the one we’re born into and the one we’re living in. As a South Asian woman and a therapist for over 7 years, I understand how culture plays a huge role in our unique challenges and expectations.

In working with individuals, I use attachment, systemic, and trauma informed approaches. If you are an individual struggling with chronic stress, codependency, perfectionism, or difficulty establishing an authentic sense of self, these symptoms can often be the result of current or past relationship dynamics that can be addressed and changed. I have training in both Gottman and Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy models in working with couples on issues from infidelity to communication issues.

Are you tired of traditional talk therapy? Overwhelmed with feelings of anxiety, or fear and panic? You might be suffering from the trauma of an abusive or neglectful childhood (developmental trauma). Or, as an adult, from the shock of recent or acute, traumatic events. I specialize in treating trauma, anxiety, low self-esteem, and life transitions.

Life is full of challenges and obstacles. Sometimes they leave us with pieces to put back together, worries about the future, scattered thoughts, and broken dreams. The journey can feel like standing at the bottom looking up at a mountain before you. Healing is a lot of work, but the view from higher up the way is worth every step. I'm here to travel with you--challenging, cheering, and celebrating you on along the way. You got this!

Reaching out for help is one of the most humbling experiences we can go through in life. In a world that is constantly pushing narratives on us based on race, gender, sexuality and/or dominant cultural beliefs, it is life-affirming to engage preferred narratives that support and empower our own values. In difficult times it is easy to feel misunderstood or lost, longing to reconnect with our own resources. My work aims for those reconnections.
Online Therapy
My clients are usually artists, lawyers, and young professionals who struggle with depression, anxiety, and / or bipolar disorder. They are often burdened with high stress, burnout, or creative blocks and have tried to help themselves but don't see the deeper changes they sought, so they reach out to me. My hope is that our work together will untangle what you're feeling and help you feel more content.

I help first-time therapy-seeking professional Asian Americans stop making lists of why they should be happy and go after the things that make them happy. You’re here because you don’t want to repeat your family’s trauma history. Maybe you have done some inner healing work on yourself, but still, feel like you need more guidance. Maybe you lived your whole life with the mindset of “It is what it is” and yet you can’t shake the tension in your chest and notice the conflict within yourself.

I help misunderstood and mistreated womxn, queer individuals and adult children of immigrants, who are on their self-discovery journey, to develop a solidified sense of self and feel more confident. There is no shame in speaking your truth. I’m here to hold space for your feelings and needs, help you shift your perspective, and integrate all parts of yourself, especially the parts you’ve shunned away. I’m excited to support you on your self-discovery journey.

The teenage years are filled with anxieties of self discovery and identity. As a young adult you may have parts of yourself you feel like you must hide. You may feel like there are conflicts with who you are, and how you currently present in the world. You may be coming to a deeper understanding of your gender or sexual identity. This can be a scary time that can complicate your relationship with your friends and family. Together we can explore ways to find a little more ease in the journey.

They come from all walks of life. Many struggle with grief and loss--of a loved one, or of a cherished idea of how life was meant to be. Some feel at war with themselves; the survival strategies of the past--once so vital--no longer serve them, leading to depression, anxiety, and diminished relationships. They are in a bind: longing to connect but frightened, with good reason, of the vulnerability that makes connection possible. I help them move in the direction of growth and deeper connection.

You are constantly on the go, juggling two or three things at the same time including the help you offer others because you can’t stop yourself. What will others say to your “No’s, what would they think of you? You fear their judgment. Sometimes, you just want to be left alone. You sometimes snap at people you love and then feel guilty. You don’t enjoy life like you used to. Where is the motivation you had before? I will help you feel more confident and have healthier relationships.

I help adult individuals whose lives are adversely impacted by one or more of the following: compulsive sexual behavior (also known as sex/porn/love addiction or out of control sexual behavior), intimate partner betrayal trauma, depression, anxiety, attachment issues, difficult life transitions, post-traumatic stress, and other difficulties. I also help couples healing from infidelity and/or overcoming other relational problems, and I facilitate group therapy for recovering sex addicts.

In this increasingly “good vibes only” culture, do you feel that you need to hide parts of yourself in order to fit in or be included in the group? Do you feel like you’re either too much or not enough? Like you’re the black sheep in your family or with your friends? You may have been thrown into an adult role as a child, having to emotionally care for your parent or caregiver, at the expense of your own emotional development, growth, or even safety. If this sounds familiar, there is hope.

Maternal Mental Health: I support women experiencing perinatal issues like depression, anxiety, panic, postpartum anxiety & depression, loss, new motherhood/parenthood issues, and relationships. Grieving a loss: whether a loved one, a relationship, or a sense of self---leads to a crisis of identity and how we see ourselves in the world. My speciality is supporting you through the process of Grief & Loss to help you find meaning and acceptance, and start building the new, stronger you.
