- I am a clinical psychologist having worked in hospitals, private practices, teaching in universities including the University of Chicago School of Medicine. I also consulted with rehabilitation centers and nursing homes here in Illinois. My work included a wide range of ages but I specialize with seniors and how their lives changed over the years. Yes, you guessed it. I am a senior too so I know what it is all about.
My passion is helping others with their self-discovery. I do this by providing a safe and comfortable environment where you can be heard without worrying about judgment. I have worked with diverse populations from ages 12 and older, helping them resolve challenges in their everyday life.
I help children, adolescents, and adults navigate anxiety, depression, trauma, OCD, bipolar disorder, grief, and life’s challenges so they can feel more confident, resilient, and connected to themselves. If you’ve spent years taking care of everyone else and feel like you’ve lost yourself along the way, therapy can help you reconnect with your needs, build healthy coping skills, and move toward the life you want.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I specialize in talk therapy. I have worked with various situations, and feel that I am a traveler along your journey, there to assist and guide as you draw closer to your personal desires and purpose.
Life can feel especially heavy when you are carrying anxiety, grief, trauma, relationship stress, family expectations, or the pressure of balancing different cultural worlds. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker providing virtual therapy to adults in Illinois and Michigan, with a particular interest in supporting South Asian adults, women, and professionals.
I offer therapy in English, Hindi, and Urdu. My goal is to create a welcoming space where you feel understood as a whole person—including your culture, identity, family relationships, values, and life experiences. You do not have to minimize what you are feeling or explain why your cultural and family circumstances matter.
