Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC
Accepting clients
Last Updated 1 days ago
I have been in the mental health field since 2018, starting as a peer counselor before earning my graduate degree in counseling. I specialize in supporting the LGBTQ-plus population and have worked with individuals throughout New York State, always using an empathetic and understanding approach.
As a South Asian and Hispanic queer therapist, I deeply understand the complexities and stigma surrounding mental health, especially within communities of color. I specialize in cognitive behavioral therapy and psychodynamic therapy, offering tailored strategies that honor your unique experiences and empower you to uncover new insights about yourself.
