About My Clients

My passion lies in providing culturally sensitive psychotherapy to teens, young adults, and adults seeking to build self-esteem, find harmony in relationships, reduce feelings of worry, navigate all aspects of motherhood, and discover healthy coping for stress. I understand that each individual's path is unique, and I respect and value that journey as we work together. Your experiences are important, and I am committed to helping you navigate through them with care, understanding, and expertise.

My Background and Approach

I use a relational- and person-centered approach to the work, meaning I value the therapeutic relationship and truly believe in meeting people where they are. This allows me to dive into deep-rooted beliefs about the self, others, and world, supporting individuals in developing insight about their lives. In a world that often encourages us to suppress our feelings, I honor all emotions and experiences as essential components of the human journey. Through compassionate guidance and deep understanding, I help individuals navigate their emotional landscapes, empowering them to embrace vulnerability and authenticity. Together, we explore the rich tapestry of life’s challenges and joys, fostering personal growth and resilience. Whether navigating the teen years or providing support to adults seeking personal growth, I have witnessed the resilience and potential for change in each person.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

As a first-generation Indo-Fijian American, I recognize the complexities that shape our identities. This awareness allows me to engage more deeply with my clients' stories, creating an environment of empathy and understanding. Each narrative is distinct, influenced by personal experiences and cultural backgrounds. By reflecting on my own journey, I am better equipped to explore the nuanced layers of my clients' lives, encouraging a collaborative process of discovery and growth. My work is driven by a commitment to creating a safe, supportive environment that empowers individuals to explore their thoughts and feelings, ultimately guiding them toward healing, confidence, and improved well-being. I work with you to understand you and find supports that align with your life.
