My communication style

My style is warm, empathetic, and collaborative, creating a welcoming space where you feel heard and supported. I foster an environment of trust and openness, encouraging honest exploration of emotions and challenges. Working with me will feel effortless as we navigate your healing journey together.

My journey to mental healthcare

As a first-generation Indian-American, I recognized both the beauties in life and the inequalities in the world. This sparked a deep interest in understanding human behavior and a passion for helping others navigate their challenges. I'm motivated by inspiring positive change and sharing the support I received with others.

My goals for you

My approach to goal setting is collaborative. We focus on where you are presently and what you want to achieve in therapy. We start by building trust and exploring your needs, then work together to set attainable goals. As we progress, we'll regularly assess and adjust those goals to ensure your growth and healing.

Our first session

In our first session, we'll focus on getting to know one another and understanding your motivations for therapy. We'll discuss your background, current challenges, and goals while allowing you to become comfortable with the process. If you're feeling uncertain, I'll be with you every step of the way with open-ended questions to get you started.
