I am a licensed MFT in California with three years of experience working as a psychotherapist and counselor, serving diverse Latino, Caucasian, Asian, and African-American clients. I have a Master of Arts degree and speak Hindi in addition to English.
My approach
My therapy style is warm and interactive. My approach combines mindfulness, CBT, ACT, humanistic, client-centered, and Solution-focused therapy. I believe each client is different and therefore employs an eclectic approach based on a client's issues, expectations, and unique specific goals. My modalities include Acceptance and Commitment (ACT), Attachment-based, Client-Centered Therapy, Complicated Grief Therapy (CGT), Cognitive Behavioral (CBT), Compassion Focused, Couples Therapy, Culturally Sensitive, Eclectic, Existential, Gestalt, Grief Therapy, Humanistic, Interpersonal, Mindfulness-Based, Motivational Interviewing, Multicultural, Narrative, Person-Centered, Positive Psychology, Rogerian, Solution Focused, Strength-Based, and Trauma Focused approaches.
My focus
I work with individuals, couples, and minors aged 13-17. I have experience helping clients with various concerns, including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems, OCD, ADHD, addiction, alcohol use, anger management, antisocial personality, behavioral issues, bipolar disorder, chronic illness, codependency, coping skills, cultural stress, divorce, domestic violence, dual diagnosis, eating disorders, emotional disturbance, family conflict, grief, hoarding, impulsivity, impulse control disorders, job stress, mood disorders, self-esteem, self-harming, thought disorders, trauma and PTSD, weight loss, women's issues, and child abuse or neglect.
My communication style
I believe in treating anyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I don't believe in stigmatizing labels. My cultural background adds to my understanding of clients' cultural upbringing.
My goals for you
I believe that humans are resilient, can resolve issues, and stand firm during life adversities. However, sometimes we need non-judgmental, empathetic support during these difficult times. It takes courage to seek a more fulfilling and happier life and take the first steps toward change. If you are ready to take that step, I am here to support and empower you.
