I completed my undergraduate degree in psychology at George Mason University with a concentration in developmental psychology. I am currently pursuing my graduate degree in Marriage and Family Therapy at Syracuse University and am under the supervision of Salma Abugideiri, LPC. 

Areas of Expertise

I aspire to work closely with individuals, couples, and families from marginalized communities with a systems-based approach to therapy, allowing me to address individual struggles and broader relational issues. As a south-Asian immigrant and mother, I love to work with clients struggling with issues related to their identity, having trouble adjusting to a new life stage or transitioning to a new role. I bring a nuanced understanding of family dynamics and cultural identity. My therapeutic approach ideally incorporates spirituality for those who want to incorporate it into their therapy. I am focused on equipping clients with the tools to manage their struggles, build healthy relationships, and overcome adversities by reframing thought processes and fostering better interpersonal understanding. I love to help my clients achieve their goals by supporting them with empathy and insight.

My Approach

I aim to use a systematic approach to therapy with individuals, couples, and families. This holistic approach considers the individual within the broader context of their relationships, helping to address the root causes of problems by exploring how interactions within our systems influence and shape our unique experiences and challenges. Everyone is different; therefore, I believe in taking an integrative, client-centered approach that focuses on the client’s strengths to meet therapy goals. I take an integrative approach to therapy depending on the client and their specific needs. Still, I am inclined toward using CBT, strengths-based therapy, narrative therapy, structural therapy, and Gottman methods. Overall, I provide a judgment-free, safe environment for my clients where, together, we can work toward growth and healing!
