Great to meet you!

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in New York, with four years of experience. I completed my MA and MEd in Counseling Psychology from Columbia University. I work with individuals and couples to navigate career development, relational issues, depression, anxiety, attention deficit, stress, trauma, sexual abuse, challenges with body image, and addiction.

I draw from my diverse identities as an Indian, immigrant, bisexual, and neurodivergent woman in my work as a therapist. Before clinical work, I worked as an educator, coach and program lead at Teach For India, serving under resourced communities. I understand firsthand the complexities of navigating multiple identities and the systems that often fail to support those who are marginalized. I use these insights to connect with clients in a meaningful way, helping them overcome barriers, embrace their full selves, and find strength in their stories

My approach to therapy

My therapeutic approach is rooted in empowerment. I use a combination of trauma-informed approaches, including AEDP (Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy), IFS (Internal Family Systems), CBT, Narrative Therapy, and Art Therapy.

What you can expect from me

My goal is to help clients reconnect with their own voices, embrace every part of themselves, and step forward with courage to create a life that reflects their truest potential.
