Why did you become a therapist, and what motivates you to continue?

I became a therapist because I’m passionate about helping people find strength during life’s challenges. Supporting clients through their journeys toward mental wellness and seeing their progress inspires me every day. Making a positive difference in others’ lives is what keeps me motivated to continue this important work.

For people that are hesitant to try therapy, what do you wish you could tell them?

Therapy is a powerful tool for self-discovery and healing. It’s a safe space where you can share your story, explore your feelings, and find solutions without judgment. Taking that first step might feel daunting, but it can lead to meaningful growth and lasting change.

What should people thinking about working with you, know about you?

I bring over 24 years of experience in mental health care, with a focus on compassionate, patient-centered therapy. I am bilingual in Hindi and prioritize creating a safe and nonjudgmental environment where clients feel heard and supported. My approach is evidence-based, using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Behavioral Therapy to guide clients toward healing and resilience.

How can you provide care remotely?

I offer therapy sessions via secure telehealth platforms, ensuring accessible, confidential, and effective care from the comfort of your home. This approach allows me to support clients across California and Arizona, providing personalized care that fits into their schedules.
