Great to meet you!

I'm a South Asian License Mental Health Counselor who values honesty, humanity, and connection. Life can get overwhelming, and therapy should feel like a space where you can be honest about what you’re carrying without feeling judged. I aim to offer a warm, down-to-earth environment where sessions feel like real conversations, not pressure or perfection.

My approach to therapy

I use a person-centered approach along with practical tools like CBT to help you understand your emotions, build coping skills, and work through patterns that keep you feeling stuck. My goal is to meet you where you are and help you make changes that feel realistic and sustainable in everyday life.

What you can expect from me

Your first session is all about you! Your story, your challenges, and your goals. Together, we’ll explore what’s been holding you back and start creating practical, personalized strategies to help you feel more in control and supported. It’s a judgment-free space where your voice matters, and by the end, you’ll leave feeling heard, understood, and ready to take the next step toward the change you want.
