New to Grow
Welcome, my name is Kiran and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW #28451) with over 20 years of experience. I specialize in and provide mental health support to people dealing with fertility issues, pregnancy, pregnancy loss, birth trauma, postpartum depression, and postpartum anxiety. I received my Masters in Social Work from the University of Southern California in 2002. In 2005, I started working on the maternal-child health floor in a hospital setting where I was able to help patients experiencing grief, loss, postpartum depression, and medical trauma. My passion truly lies in working with individuals going through their journeys and challenges in pregnancy, childbirth, any type of loss, adoptions, or surrogacies. In 2019, I struggled with my own loss of losing my father and felt it was the right time to move on from the medical field in the hospital setting to a smaller medical setting. Working as a preceptor in this new smaller medical setting, I quickly realized that this was not my calling as I began to miss working with the perinatal population. Soon after, I was given an opportunity to provide mental health therapy to the perinatal population and I believe this remains my calling. I am of Asian descent and love learning about everyone's family histories, cultures, foods, etc.
I believe in meeting my clients where they are at in their own journeys of parenthood or life in general. My focus is to work together with you to build a comprehensive plan around your specific needs. I am dedicated to promoting the well-being of my clients through evidence-based practices and a client-centered approach.
If you are looking for someone to provide you with an environment full of: -warmth -compassion -humor -and being straightforward, then I am a good fit for you.
My ideal client is someone who is committed to personal growth and willing to put in the effort needed to create meaningful change. They are open to guidance, ready to face life's challenges with honesty and courage, and motivated to learn new skills. Together, we work through obstacles, build resilience, and create a path toward greater balance, healing, and fulfillment.
