Great to meet you!

Hi, I'm Deepali! I help people reconnect with themselves. I especially enjoy working with people navigating grief in all its forms - the loss of a an old identity, a version of life you thought you'd have, or heartbreak. I do existential work with my clients: making room for the bigger questions about who you are and what your life actually means, while also bringing in practical, CBT-based tools you can use right away to make daily life a little easier. I also specialize in disordered eating through a weight-inclusive, Health At Every Size lens.

My approach to therapy

I find a quick connection with people who are ready to get curious about their own patterns, rather than just manage symptoms. I use a warm, direct approach and bring humor, curiosity, and sometimes art, music, or reading into sessions, since healing doesn't only happen through talking.

What you can expect from me

In our work together, you can expect to achieve many of the outcomes listed below:

  • A stronger sense of who you are outside of your patterns
  • Reduced anxiety by addressing its root, not just its symptoms
  • Practical, CBT-based tools you can use between sessions
  • Increased comfort with uncertainty and life's big transitions
  • Greater curiosity about your own thoughts and behaviors
  • Space to emotionally process without being rushed through it
  • A felt sense of reconnection with your body, instincts, and what matters to you
  • Rebuilt trust with your body and relationship to food
  • I'd be honored to help you find your way back to yourself.
