About me

My practice
I offer trauma-informed, person-centred counselling for adults navigating mental health diagnoses, addiction, grief, and identity transitions. My practice is shaped by years of working across diverse communities and therapeutic settings, with a deep respect for cultural nuance and emotional complexity.

Sessions are relational, gentle, and grounded in deep listening. I integrate evidence-based modalities with a humanistic, strengths-based approach—creating space for clients to revisit stories, shift narratives, and reconnect with their own wisdom.

Therapy is offered in English, Hindi, and Gujarati, with sensitivity to the layered experiences of migration, multilingual identity, and intergenerational story. I hold space for what’s hard to name, and honour each person’s pace.
