Hi there, I'm Shiva!

I’m glad you’ve taken this important first step. You may be feeling anxious, overwhelmed, or uncertain about how to move forward, and I want you to know that you don’t have to navigate it alone. As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, I offer a compassionate, collaborative space where you can feel supported, gain insight, and work.

My focus

I work with adults and couples facing anxiety, depression, self-esteem, or relationship challenges. Using evidence-based, strengths-focused approaches, I empower clients to build practical coping skills, gain insight, and take meaningful steps toward growth, resilience, and lasting change.

My approach

My approach is collaborative and strengths-based, drawing on evidence-based methods such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Solution-Focused Therapy, and Positive Psychotherapy. I’ll help you develop practical coping skills, build emotional awareness, and reconnect with your personal strengths.
