Not unlike many within this field, my own experiences with mental health influenced my decision to become a therapist. Through my own struggles in my young life, I found a passion for hearing other people’s experiences and empowering others to identify and utilize their strengths in moments of hardship.
A couple of areas I specialize in navigating are:
Ideas of perfectionism
Developing self-compassion
Exploring one’s cultural identity
Coping with and understanding feeling “not good enough"
Overcoming the stress of living up to expectations (cultural, intrapersonal, societal, parental)
Setting boundaries
Feeling torn between two or more cultures
Feelings of shame, worry, or guilt
I am an LGBTQIA+ affirming therapist and I have a particular skill in working with people of color, first and second-generation immigrants, and folks new to therapy. Additionally, I deeply understand, honor, and respect the South Asian and Middle Eastern religions and cultures.
