I specialize in the treatment of chronic emotional dysregulation using EMDR, somatic experiencing and parts work to assist you in understanding how your nervous system works based on your relational experiences. Adverse experiences teach you to close your heart and armor up. Healing teaches you to open your heart and boundary up.

I am passionate about working with people with mood and anxiety disorders, survivors of adverse childhood experiences, trauma and PTSD, addictions and compulsive behaviors, parenting, and high conflict couples and families.

I am passionate about mental health and helping others on their individual journeys. I normally use a person-centered approach, mixed with various other theories including CBT, EMDR, Solution-Focused, and DBT. I have experience working with ages 9+ who experience mood and anxiety disorders, ADHD, trauma, grief, LGBTQ+ related stressors, and life transitions. I am an ally of the LGBTQ+ community and open to working with any population, as I feel every person deserves to be heard. I believe in acceptance, validation, empathy, trust, listening, caring, support, and being non-judgmental. I want everyone to know that they never have to handle their problems alone and reaching out for support is a huge accomplishment. My goal is to have all of my clients feel comfortable and understood when working with me. I know that reaching out for help is not easy, and I hope we can work together toward your personal growth and healing.

I am a dedicated and compassionate counselor committed to creating a supportive and affirming space where you feel truly heard and valued. Having lived in six different countries, I bring a global perspective and a deep understanding of the complexities surrounding identity, belonging, and personal growth. As a South Asian therapist, I integrate cultural sensitivity and inclusivity into my practice, honoring the diverse experiences that shape each individual.

 

With a background in trauma-informed care, particularly in emergency room settings, I offer a unique perspective on the ways difficult experiences impact mental and emotional well-being. I specialize in working with immigrants, communities of color, and queer-identified individuals, providing a nonjudgmental environment to explore the intersections of culture, identity, and lived experiences.

 

Outside of my professional work, I find joy in spending time with my children and cooking, which keeps me grounded and connected to life’s simple pleasures. My goal is to support you in your journey toward healing, resilience, and embracing your authentic self.

I am passionate about and specialize in helping teenagers and adults, most notably men, navigate life’s most difficult encounters in today’s trying times. There is a common perception that men who express their feelings or emotions are labeled as “weak” and “non-masculine”. Men died by suicide 3.8 times more than women in 2023 (afsp.org). All too often, toxic masculinity manifests into the suppression of feelings, including anger, leading to the perpetration of addiction and violence.
While integrating a combination of trauma-focused therapy, psychotherapy, and mindfulness, I believe in providing tangible feedback and practical solutions to help improve individuals overall outlook on life. I look forward to working with people who are seeking clarity with a better understanding and confidence in themselves. In addition, I work well with people who are motivated to dive deeper and improve upon
their personal and interpersonal relationships. In our first few sessions, it is a goal of mine to get to know you and provide some homework to try. This provides a great opportunity for clients to determine if I am a good fit for them. In terms of my own self-care, I enjoy being physically active outdoors in nature. I am also actively working on honing my cooking skills (or lack thereof) while trying out the wide variety of restaurants and cuisine in the Columbus, Ohio area.

I am committed to walking alongside and supporting you as you navigate through life’s daily and unexpected challenges. My counseling approach is grounded in warmth, compassion, and curiosity, with the understanding that no two stories are alike. Because of this, I place a strong emphasis on trauma-focused therapy, creating a safe and nonjudgmental space where your experiences are honored and your healing process is respected.

I am especially drawn to working with adolescents because of their resilience, honesty, and unique perspectives on the world. I believe that every young person deserves to feel seen, heard, and valued. Using a trauma-informed lens, I strive to help you explore your emotions, understand how past experiences may be impacting your present, and build healthy coping skills that support growth and resilience.

My goal is to empower you to discover your own strengths and move toward healing at a pace that feels right for you. Whether you are processing difficult experiences, navigating stress, or working through life’s transitions, I hope to provide the support, tools, and encouragement you need to move forward.

I am deeply committed to supporting you on your healing journey. I believe that no one chooses to struggle, but rather, we often do our best to cope with circumstances that are outside of our control. My goal is to truly understand you and your experiences and support you as you work toward becoming the best version of yourself. Using a trauma-informed approach, I value the gentle exploration of past experiences and adversity to better understand how they may be affecting your mental health today. Trauma can influence emotions, thoughts, behaviors, and relationships and can show up in ways that we may not even realize. Together, we can explore these patterns at a pace that feels safe and supportive. I strive to help you work through life’s challenges, build compassion for yourself, and reconnect with a sense of self-worth and self-love. Our emotions can feel overwhelming or confusing at times, and I value the importance of helping you better understand and navigate your emotional experiences in a caring and nonjudgmental space. I am open to working with individuals from all backgrounds and believe that everyone deserves to be met with understanding, respect, and validation. My approach is warm, compassionate, and accepting, and I am genuinely curious about who you are and what matters most to you. No matter what challenges you are facing, my hope is to help you feel empowered, valued, and supported throughout the counseling process.
