Ready to spill? You're in the right place! My name is Nancy, I'm a neuro-affirming therapist (ADHD fam I see you) and your future emotional support human (if you want me to be). I offer individual therapy grounded with clinical insight, millennial energy, and spice from South India! I hope you and I can soon spill the chai! Let me go first. I was raised in the diverse neighborhoods of Queens, NY (yes, just like your friendly neighborhood Spiderman) where I developed a deep cultural competence that now enrich my therapeutic approach. I grew up living with progressive vision loss so I know what it feels like when life starts to unravel. I was night blind by the age of 11 and lost 80% of my vision over the years. Trust me, I know what a Menty B, (especially growing up with all the pressures and expectations of the Indian culture). Whether you're untangling your identity, spiraling at 3 am, or doom-scrolling your way out of an existential crisis, I got you. My approach blends several therapeutic styles: Psychodynamic Therapy: to uncover how childhood and family dynamics still show up today (yep, we’re going there) CBT: to help reframe those “I’m not enough” thoughts Mindfulness: because sometimes we just need to breathe and not dissociate Culturally Sensitive Trauma-Informed Care: to support deep insight and generational healing Therapy with me is warm, collaborative, and real. We’ll laugh, cry, unpack, and grow (sometimes all in one session) You deserve a space where you don’t have to over-explain yourself, mask your emotions, or code-switch your pain. I bring my full, authentic self into our sessions so you can too. If you're ready to start healing or just want to vibe-check a therapist who gets it, book a consult or book your session now!
In our first session together, here's what you can expect
Our first session will be informative so make sure you bring your coffee! I like my clients to feel comfortable so you can expect me to crack a joke or connect with you through a mutual interest or experience. Seeking therapy to begin with is nerve wrecking so I want my clients to feel at ease and not feel like they're getting interrogated. I go at your pace so if something is uncomfortable to talk about, don't worry, we can talk about it another time when you're ready. If you don't want to ever talk about it, that's okay too! I will meet you where you're at and we'll take it from there.
The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions
One of my greatest strengths is being an empath. I feel that I connect well with my clients because I've been in their shoes. I am a daughter, a sister, a wife. and mother of two little boys. I have a history of childhood trauma which I have learned to overcome and heal from. It led to my career choice of becoming a therapist and having the passion to help others. It genuinely makes me feel so happy when my clients tell me they look forward to coming to therapy. :)
The clients I'm best positioned to serve
My passion is working with teenagers and empowering young adult women hence the Gen Z slang term for the name of my practice, "Spill the Chai Therapy". My areas of expertise are in ADHD, Childhood trauma/Sexual Abuse, OCD and Anxiety disorders, Narcissistic Abuse, Perinatal/Postpartum Depression, and Vision Loss/Blindness-particularly in Retina Disorders such as Retinitis Pigmentosa.
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
By using CBT, I have helped clients challenge their reoccurring thoughts, help them recognize how their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors influence each other, and change their thinking patterns. This will ultimately lead to a less stressed life leaving clients more confident and at ease with coping with their problems.
Psychodynamic
The Psychodynamic approach is used where I can help clients understand how unresolved conflicts and symptoms from past dysfunctional relationships can influence their current behaviors. This approach can help clients be more insightful and self aware of their symptoms and allow them to improve their thoughts, behaviors, and relationships with others.
Mindfulness-Based Therapy
Mindfulness is a great approach for those struggling with PTSD or ADHD. Clients will learn how to focus on the present moment and let go of past or future worries. By redirecting your thoughts, you will have the ability to shift your thoughts and attention despite having distractions. Through cognitive inhibitiom, clients can learn how to suppress other thoughts that interfere with focus through grounding techniques. As a result, this type of therapy improves attention, memory, stress, emotional awareness, acceptance, and regulation.

Nancy has been amazing. She has truly listened to me and helped me work out and put names to the emotions I am feeling and what may be causing my reactions. She has helped provide solutions and changes that I may implement to help cope with emotions and help with communication style towards my loved ones. My only regret is not finding her sooner.
