I am offering immediate appointment slots and flexible rates during this difficult time. Are you struggling with anxiety and depression due to COVID-19? Do you feel uncertain about how to move forward during this difficult time? You may feel trapped or hopeless, but I can help you with proven coping skills and by working with you to create a new perspective. My life experience provides a solid foundation upon which I have built my techniques and interventions. In addition to my work with adults, I have experience with teens and young adults, and enjoy connecting with them and helping them navigate life and family challenges.

I spent 25 years in corporate America before earning my master's degree in professional counseling. This experience has given me insight into the stresses in the workplace. Having been a long time sufferer of anxiety, I can empathize with the weight of this emotion while also sharing techniques that have helped me live a better, more enjoyable life.

We are living in uncertain times and COVID fatigue has made daily life even more difficult to manage. It can feel overwhelming, but I will work with you to re-train your brain so that your automatic thought patterns are encouraging instead of fearful.

~Life is a balance of holding on and letting go~ Rumi

Are you living a balanced life? What is your story?

Often, our path in life gets off balance when we encounter major life transitions, work stress, relationships struggles, family conflicts, complicated grief and loss and addictions. When we experience existential concerns, identity crisis, cultural distress, it affects us deeply, leaving us feeling overwhelmed and often stuck. Seeking the right help is pivotal in working through, accessing meaning behind the suffering and looking ahead with hope.

Hi, I am licensed to provide both mental health and addiction counseling in NC with 20 years of experience. I am trained in best practice modalities of CBT, DBT, EMDR, CPT, MI, Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy which I utilize to assist my clients gain insight into their struggles, learn to modulate emotions, practice healthy coping skills to manage symptoms, problem solve challenges and manifest in sustaining healthy lifestyles. Additionally, my lived experience as a first generation South Asian immigrant, a working parent who has processed her own life transitions and stuck points to seek meaningful growth, is a part of my authentic approach in counseling where I seek to empower and guide my clients in their healing journey. I am trans and LGBTQIA+ informed and committed to providing affirming, inclusive care.

I specialize working with older teens, adults, and couples.

My therapeutic style honors trauma informed, non-judgmental, culturally competent, compassionate, therapeutic guidance to assist you with engaging in a purposeful, vibrant life!
