My Approach to Helping
Expert care for cancer, chronic illness, sleep, & health goals. Therapy that welcomes your cultural & racial identity and heals trauma. As a South Asian cis-het woman, unwavering ally, and health psychologist, I've seen the challenges faced by individuals & families in medical and mental health care. Having an advocate matters, whether you're managing a life transition, living with cancer, or trying to fix your sleep. As your advocate, I see you and support you as a whole person. I support aspects of your emotional, physical, social, and existential health that go well beyond "symptoms."
Learning from the folks I've served, I believe that:
1) When you are met with authentic respect for who you are,
2) When you are met with genuine positive curiosity about your experiences, &
3) When there's someone in your corner who believes unabashedly in your resilience (even when you struggle to believe in yourself)
- it leads to lasting change.
I am honored to help:
1) Bicultural folks navigate the rich, at times pain-in-the-ass complexities of life,
2) Folks & families with cancer & chronic health concerns move from suffering to resilience,
3) Anyone who wants impactful support with health goals, from fixing insomnia to transforming your relationship with food.
