What's My Approach to Therapy?
Do you find yourself constantly caught between the pull of the past and the worries of the future? Many people describe feeling like they’re moving through life on autopilot — weighed down by overthinking, low mood, or the pressure to keep everyone else happy. You might notice people-pleasing tendencies, difficulty maintaining boundaries, or a pattern of overgiving that leaves you drained, ungrounded, and disconnected from yourself. If this sounds familiar, we may be a good fit.
Here, you’ll find a warm, calm space where your feelings are validated and your voice genuinely matters. Together, we’ll explore what fuels your distress and gently uncover the deeper experiences and patterns shaping your emotional world. Alongside this, we’ll build practical tools to regulate your nervous system, ease your symptoms in the present, and help you move through life with greater clarity, steadiness, and a growing sense of inner safety.
For many people, finding a therapist who truly understands their cultural background can be a challenge. As a South Asian therapist, I bring the richness of three cultures, four languages, and the rare perspective of being both a first- and third-generation immigrant. These lived experiences allow me to deeply empathize with the immigrant journey across generations, as well as the ways culture, family expectations, and identity can shape mental health. No matter your background or story, I aim to meet you with genuine understanding, respect, and compassion.
How I Work
When you step into therapy with me, you’ll find a calm, safe, and judgment-free space where your voice is central. I will listen closely, honour the wisdom you already carry, and collaborate with you to create a plan that aligns with your personal goals and values. We will move at a pace that feels right for you.
I work with adults (18+) on a wide range of concerns, including:
Anxiety, depression, stress, and burnout
Low motivation, self-doubt, and perfectionism
Self-esteem, people-pleasing tendencies, and identity issues
Relationship and trust concerns
Attachment-based and intergenerational trauma
Life transitions and major changes
ADHD, neurodivergence, and mood disorders
Many clients come to me seeking not just relief from symptoms, but also a deeper understanding of themselves — how past experiences and trauma have shaped their worldview, patterns of responding, and sense of self. Therapy is a space to reflect, grow, and discover new ways of relating to yourself and others.
Inclusive & Culturally Sensitive Care
I have worked with individuals from many cultural, spiritual, and religious backgrounds, and I always strive to tailor therapy to each person’s unique context. I proudly stand as an ally to LGBTQIA+ and BIPOC communities, offering an inclusive and affirming space where every part of you is welcome. My approach is compassionate, client-centered, and culturally sensitive — never one-size-fits-all. In every session, I prioritize creating a sense of safety so you can feel secure enough to explore, heal, and thrive.
My Approach
I integrate evidence-based modalities including existential therapy, parts work (IFS), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). These approaches combine practical strategies for managing immediate distress with deeper exploration of identity, patterns, and meaning. This balance allows us to work not only on easing symptoms in the moment but also on creating lasting growth and resilience.
Embarking on Your Therapy Journey
Therapy is a journey of self-discovery, healing, and meaningful growth. I know starting can feel daunting, but you don’t have to do it alone. Throughout our work together, I’ll honour that you are the expert of your own life — my role is to support, guide, and walk alongside you at a pace that feels right. If my approach resonates, I invite you to reach out with any questions. When you feel ready, I would be honoured to accompany you on your path toward healing and wholeness. Let’s begin with a free 30-minute consultation.
