About My Clients
I'm a firm believer in You being the most important person in Your life. You matter most, you know yourself best, and you are the star of your life story. I want to be able to offer an empathetic, nonjudgmental, and safe space for you to process your thoughts and feelings, adding a bit of humor along the way. I want to work along side you to help you see your own strength, and work collaboratively to help you cope with the daily hurdles of life.
My Background and Approach
I tailor my therapeutic approach to each person, utilizing various evidence based modalities including: strengths based, person centered, insight oriented, CBT, DBT, and Motivational Interviewing. I view all my clients through a systems based lens. I take a deep interest and enjoy working with those who identify in the South Asian community, emerging young adults, college students, LGBTQIA+ youth, those impacted w/ Personality Disorders, and adults. I also specialize in working with and advocating for children and adolescents within their school system and am familiar with IEPs and 504 plans. I am certified in TF-CBT (Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy), and am a Certified Mediator, have experience working with complex trauma, and have over 7 years of experience working with adolescents, college students / emerging adults, and adults; in individual, couple, family and group settings.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
My own experience navigating cultural identity has helped me appreciate and also be sensitive to the complexities around culture and ethnicity in the US. As a South Asian cis female and first generation college graduate, I want to help make change, and help your inner strength. On a personal note, I’m a huge foodie, dog mom, dancer, and traveler. Being a coffee fanatic, I love to spend my weekends trying out new food spots with my husband. Dance has been part of my life since I can remember and has let me feel free, and has been a great and health coping skill in my life. Reaching out can be scary and takes a lot of courage. Finding a healthy positive support in a therapist can help you be closer to your own progress and your life journey of loving yourself. Therefore, finding a therapist that is the right fit is critical for success in therapy. I gladly offer a free 15 minute phone consult to determine if I am a good fit for your goals.
