Do you feel that you have been pulled in a thousand directions? Are you struggling with self-care, low self-esteem, negative thinking, your job, or your relationships? Is it hard for you to relax? I help clients manage anxiety, and depression and avoid burnout. Together, we can identify your work/life balance. We'll use a whole-self approach addressing the needs of your body and mind to achieve your therapeutic goals. I also use mindfulness, cognitive-behavioral therapy, EMDR, motivational interviewing, and Psychoanalytic therapy to help identify and build a stronger relationship with yourself. Whether you are dealing with relationship issues, being overwhelmed, anxiety, depression, grief/loss, life transitions, acclimation, addiction, or recovery, I'm here to support you. Seeking therapy can be scary but it is the first step in helping your well-being. You deserve a space where you can grow, heal, and become more reflective. In our sessions together, I'll meet you with comparison and evidence-based techniques so you can overcome the issues and habits that are holding you back. I want to help you improve the quality of your life and provide you with a support system. I look forward to working with you.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

In our first session together, we will begin with a brief introductions, then dive into the specific challenges you are facing. This will help me create a tailored plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions. We can also discuss what are your therapeutic goals for therapy.

What treatment methods and tools do you utilize?

I use the following treatment methods: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps clients become more aware of their negative thinking patterns and replace them with more positive, realistic thinking. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing Therapy (EMDR) treats clients trauma and PTSD symptoms Dialectical behavior therapy helps client understand and accept their difficult feelings which include mindfulness, emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

My biggest strength as a therapist is that I have a lot of empathy and compassion for my clients. I come from a bi-cultural background and speak 3 languages including Pastho, Urdu/Hindi, and of course English. I understand the immigrant experience and acclimation as well as clients who are struggling with being bi-cultural.
