About…

Your story matters, and you don’t have to navigate it alone. I work with individuals facing the complexities of Borderline Personality Disorder, anxiety, depression, and relational challenges, offering a safe and supportive space to explore, heal, and grow. My approach is client-centred, offering tools and support that honour your unique journey, whether you’re seeking emotional well-being, healthier relationships, or deeper self-understanding. Together, we’ll build on your strengths, develop meaningful strategies for growth, and move toward a life that feels more fulfilling and aligned with who you are. 

I use an integrative approach, recognizing healing is unique to each person. My goal is to create a space where you feel seen, heard, and understood. As a South Asian therapist, I integrate cultural sensitivity with curiosity to ensure therapy is affirming and collaborative. I draw from IFS, Family Systems, CBT, and Solution-Focused Therapy.

Life’s challenges can feel heavy, but you don’t have to face them alone. With warmth, empathy, and a commitment to your growth, I am here to support you in uncovering your strengths, building resilience, and moving towards meaningful change. If you’re ready to take the next step, I would be honoured to walk alongside you.
