Think of therapy as a choose-your-own-adventure; this space can be what you need it to be. After 7+ years of practicing as a counsellor, in both Australia and India, I have worked with people across lifespan, from an array of cultural backgrounds, and from all walks of life.
I have supported clients who wished to address both short-term goals and wanted to make longer-term changes in their lives. Having worked with presenting concerns like anxiety, depression, mood regulation, social isolation, bullying, migration, past trauma and its current impacts, I have a strong sense that we can spend our time together in the way best suited to your needs.
I am a Clinical member registered with PACFA with over 1000 hours of client contact recorded till date.
I strongly believe in the healing and supporting nature of therapy, and my wish is for others to experience the same as and when they need it in their lives.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
