Therapist Intern

(Under the supervision of a Registered Psychotherapists) 

Have you ever felt caught in the overwhelming need to please others or questioned whether you are truly “enough”? You are not alone in feeling this way. I offer a safe, supportive space for individuals from all backgrounds, whether you are grappling with anxiety, trauma, perfectionism, or simply trying to find your footing in an ever-changing world. My therapeutic approach weaves together CBT, Somatic Work, IFS (Internal Family Systems), EFT (Emotion-Focused Therapy), and Narrative Therapy, which allows me to tailor each session to fit who you are and where you want to be.

As a South Asian woman and immigrant, I deeply appreciate the cultural nuances that shape your experience. I have had the privilege of volunteering in crisis intervention, working with older adults impacted by Alzheimer’s, teaching children, and serving as an intake specialist for mental health. These experiences continually reaffirm my belief that healing takes many forms and often begins with a genuine human connection. My journey in therapy has shown me just how transformative it can be to find a therapist who truly “gets” you, honors your story, and respects your values.

When you are in my office or meeting with me virtually, you will find a gentle, warm environment where you can share your story without fear of judgment. Together, we will unpack the thoughts and patterns that hold you back and explore practical steps toward growth, empowerment, and self-discovery. In my spare time, I love baking sweet treats, adventuring outdoors, and making memories with my husband and two playful cats, Mika and Fifi. I believe life’s chapters are meant to be written in your voice, and I am here to help you find that voice, heal, and flourish.

“Half of life is lost in charming others, and the other half is lost in anxieties caused by others. Leave this play. You have played enough.”
