Therapy is About Teamwork

Therapy can feel daunting at first. It involves sharing personal stories with someone new and building trust over time. But once that connection is established, it becomes easier for you to open up about your feelings in a comfortable and secure environment.

As a licensed therapist, I strive to create this safe haven for you. Your time is precious, so our sessions will focus entirely on your needs and goals using talk therapy techniques as part of our comprehensive approach.

Who Am I?

I am a licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) in California. I am finishing my Ph.D. in International Psychology, which will allow me to work with diverse people from different backgrounds and experiences.

When I was 10, I migrated from India with my dad. I was raised in Southern California and now live in the Northern California Bay Area. Being an immigrant child, I struggled to find my identity and where I belonged. There were moments when I felt disconnected and alone. Finding proper therapy helped me get through my trauma and pain. The heavy baggage we carry on our shoulders can be lightened with the appropriate support.

The day I decided to become a licensed therapist, it was as if my eyes opened up for the first time, and I saw my path in life. I knew that I wanted to help women find their joy again. I do my best to suit up and show up for you every session.

Hobbies and Interests

When I’m not providing therapy services, I enjoy spending time with my sweet teacup yorkie, who brings sunshine to my life each day. I like to take walks and read for pleasure. Traveling is my other passion. Whenever I can, I love to get out of my environment and into a new one. I enjoy exploring and eating my way through different cities. I also love the ocean and feel at peace when my feet touch the sand. 

Heal through individual therapy.
