Welcome to YOUR space of growth, if you accept, my dear fellow Human! You are capable of everything you desire for yourself & your inner world - change, healing, empowerment, upliftment, release, fulfillment, peace, liberation, & anything else your spirit truly yearns for. In this moment, Life may be immensely challenging you, but somehow you may still be exactly where you are supposed to be. At this fragile place where our paths converge I ask: What do you need for your unique mental wellness?

My Background and Approach

What you know you need is truly waiting for you. What resonates, calls to you... Your mental wellness is beyond important: to you, to me, & to our collective humanity. We all deserve peace of mind. Upon choosing to journey together, we begin our therapeutic alliance & find our authentic synchronicity with one another to build a strong foundation for your special holistic wellbeing to flourish. I honor & respect you as a whole; Your personal wisdom, various inner & outer experiences, & true Self finds home. We will journey forward towards all you define Mental Wellness as, safely & honestly. Our free 15-minute initial consultation is designed for us both to dip our toes in & explore whether we can effectively work towards your mental wellness goals together, & how. Depending on your mental wellness goals, needs, & budget there is no limit to the therapeutic packages we can create to best serve YOU!

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

​I am Nisha Agmata Paliwal / निशा अग्माटा पालिवाल / ᜈ̊ᜐ̟ᜑ ᜀᜄ̟ᜋᜆ ᜉᜎ̊ᜏᜎ̟ / The Calm Tigress. My name is a love note of commitment to those I serve & guide through this sacred work of heart & spirit. I take respectful responsibility of your allowance of my presence in your personal wellness journey, & continue evolving myself specifically to serve our humanity. I grew up in various parts of the world with my Indian Father and Filipina Mother exploring human emotions and experiences with Earth's elders, children, and ecology. Through my journey thus far, I have learned that the work most wholesomely true to my being is that which has to do with our individual and collective human-ness. I therefore work from my heart and spirit, and dedicate my personal and professional expertise to supporting, empowering, and authentically being beside those ready to begin liberation, and growth.
