Pre-Licensed Professional

Life can present complex challenges that feel confusing, overwhelming, or hard to sit with. If you are looking for thoughtful support to understand your patterns, navigate stressors, and build a meaningful sense of self, therapy can offer a collaborative space to explore these experiences. I work with children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, relationship concerns, and identity-related stress.

I practice with curiosity, compassion, and respect for each person’s lived experience. My therapeutic work is rooted in trauma-informed and culturally responsive care, with particular attention to how systemic stress and identity-related experiences shape emotional well-being. I integrate evidence-based practices such as CBT, ACT, and mindfulness-informed strategies, tailoring our work to your unique needs and goals. I offer therapy in English and Indian languages (Kannada, Hindi, Tamil), and I am especially mindful of supporting clients navigating cross-cultural experiences.

I aim to create a safe, nonjudgmental space where you can feel genuinely heard as we explore what matters most to you. My approach is collaborative, affirmative, and tailored to how your identity, culture, and personal history shape your experience. If you are seeking a therapist who values curiosity, depth, and thoughtful partnership, I would be happy to connect.
