About Me
I am an adult clinical psychologist and a retired adult neuropsychologist who has always had a genuine curiosity in understanding the complexity of being human. My formal journey began with obtaining a B.A. in Honors Psychology at the University of Western Ontario in London, Ontario. After completing my undergraduate studies, I wanted to deepen my understanding of the mind, and to learn evidence-based techniques to help people find some relief from their suffering. As a result, I completed an M.A. and Psy.D. in Clinical Psychology with a multicultural focus at the California School of Professional Psychology in San Francisco, California. My specialized postdoctoral training in psychodynamic psychotherapy and adult neuropsychology deepened my knowledge of brain-behavior relationships and of how to address root contributions to emotional suffering.
Over the past 15 years, I have worked in a group practice, community mental health centers, specialty medical clinics, inpatient and outpatient hospital settings (MassGeneral Brigham, Spaulding Rehabilitation Hospital, San Mateo Medical Center) in the San Francisco Bay Area and in the Greater Boston Area. I have also enjoyed teaching some behavioral medicine seminars as a visiting professor at the American University of the Caribbean. In the past, I have done some speaking engagements and interviews on topics such as maternal rage, managing conflict within relationships, parental guilt, colorism in the South Asian community and navigating parenthood for the first time. Some of my interviews have been featured in the Juggernaut, Mom’s Hierarchy of Needs, and Ovia Health and my writing has been featured in South Asian Mental Health Initiative and Network (SAMHIN) and Brown Girl Magazine.
My personal and professional experiences have increased my depth of understanding of how family, society, culture, intersecting identities, religion/spirituality, politics, languages, and intergenerational history can shape and influence who we are, our sense of belonging and connection, and our ways of coping with the challenges we face. I value the importance of considering the interplay of sociocultural context, the mind, and the body in understanding someone’s strengths and areas of difficulty. I aspire for my clients to truly feel that they can be themselves, to speak freely about what they think and feel, and to work together to address their concerns.
