Bio
You’re performing a role you never signed up for. Measuring your worth by others’ approval is catching up to you. When you are not taking care of others, you feel overwhelmed by your own life. Doomscrolling has become routine. You’re constantly on the go because slowing down feels too scary. You don’t even know what you need and how to ask for support. You’ve been taught that focusing on yourself makes you selfish. While you wonder whose life you’re really living, you battle negative self-talk and shame. Your identity is more complex than checking a box so you’re skeptical that someone will understand, but something needs to change.
As a third culture, 2nd-gen South Asian woman of mixed heritage, I recognize the cultural and systemic influences on our mental health and the daily challenges of holding multiple identities. Together, we will unpack the layers to create a shift. Honoring your beliefs and practices, we’ll integrate mind and body, so you can release what no longer serves you.
You do so much for others. You deserve to have a space for yourself and to be fully seen, heard, and understood. With my support, you’ll reconnect to your intuition and reclaim your sense of choice, beginning with finding the right therapist. Schedule a free initial call with me to see how we align. You’re already on your way to living a more attuned life.
