🌿 About Me

I am a seasoned holistic psychotherapist with over 30 years of experience supporting individuals on their healing journeys. My life has been shaped by rich cross-cultural experiences—born in India, having lived in Canada (Montreal, Toronto, Ottawa, Saskatoon), and now rooted in the United States. This global perspective allows me to meet each person with cultural sensitivity, openness, and deep respect for their unique life story.

My work is deeply informed by both psychological training and spiritual practice. While traditional talk therapy can be helpful, I believe true healing often requires engaging the body as well as the mind. As a certified Yoga and Meditation Teacher and Reiki Master, I integrate somatic practices such as breathwork, yoga, guided meditation, mindfulness, dancing and journaling into my work. These approaches help regulate the nervous system, release stored tension, and support emotional balance and resilience.

I specialize in working with individuals navigating addiction, trauma, grief, and relationship challenges. My approach supports clients in reconnecting with themselves, exploring their spiritual path, and restoring meaningful connections with others.

I believe in creating a safe, compassionate, and nonjudgmental space where you can feel seen and supported. Together, we will tailor a path that honors your unique needs and goals.

Taking the first step toward a more fulfilling and meaningful life takes courage. I am here to walk alongside you in that process.
