Having immigrated from India and spent my formative years across Maryland, California, the Dominican Republic, and Japan, I bring a deeply multicultural, multilingual perspective to my work. I understand firsthand the nuanced stressors of immigration, acculturation, multi-ethnic relationships, intergenerational conflict, and major life transitions.

Before transitioning to Marriage and Family Therapy in 2010, I spent nearly two decades as an international marketing and public relations executive in the high-tech sector. That career gave me rich experience working with diverse global clients and a clear view of the high-stress demands of corporate life—particularly the toll of conforming to social pressures that clash with our authentic selves.

My clinical foundation was built at San Diego State University’s Center for Community Counseling & Engagement (CCCE), where I trained and served as Clinic Administrator. In 2014, I joined NISD Counseling—a non-profit dedicated to affordable therapy and training culturally responsible clinicians—eventually serving as Co-Director and Board Member for a decade. Since launching my own private practice in 2017, I have thoughtfully built a compassionate team of Licensed and Associate Marriage and Family Therapists serving clients throughout California.

Alongside my clinical practice, I am an AAMFT-Approved Supervisor and served for 11 years as an adjunct faculty member in SDSU’s Department of Counseling & School Psychology. Mentoring the next generation of therapists to cultivate an inclusive, culturally responsive worldview remains one of the core passions of my career.
