Description

Being sensitive to your circumstances, I will work with you to find the best therapeutic approach and work with you to help you achieve your life goals. You will receive a nonjudgmental and safe space to feel accepted and understood to lead a life where you can live as your authentic self.

I operate from a strength-focused, trauma-informed, and anti-oppressive lens with warmth, compassion, and calmness. I offer culturally diverse and language-specific services in English, Hindi, Marathi, and Urdu. 

Let's embark on a journey of resilience, growth, and healing!
