I am a Brown/mixed (of Indian descent and white) genderqueer clinical psychologist in private practice in New York, Pennsylvania, and PSYPACT-participating U.S. states. I use they|them|theirs and she|her|hers pronouns. I was born in the States, and I can only provide services in English.

As a therapist, I try to provide a warm, safe(r), and casual space for folks to explore how personal, environmental, and societal interactions impact their experiences of distress, sense of self, and relationships. I believe in the importance of making room for folks’ multifaceted, diverse, and complex identities, values, and histories.

My therapeutic approach is strongly rooted in justice frameworks, and therefore it is deeply politicized. As such, I believe that therapy has the capacity to be a radical space, where folks can be witnessed in their past and current experiences of trauma and oppression. In doing so, I believe that individuals can gain a better understanding of themselves, and find creative and sustainable paths toward healing.

My eclectic approach to psychotherapy is trauma-informed and draws from transnational feminist, relational, and psychodynamic psychotherapies and orientations. Please feel free to ask me to explain those approaches and orientations!

I am honored to serve racially marginalized, immigrant, queer, LGB, trans, and nonbinary communities. I have extensive experience and training in providing gender affirming care. I am dedicated to informed consent models of gender and body autonomy, and I aim to reduce gatekeeping in my own practice. I also provide training and consultation to clinical teams/practices as well as graduate-level and doctoral student therapists, hoping to offer gender affirming care and services. I serve as a clinical associate at The New School for Social Research, where I consult clinical psychology doctoral students. I teach, publish, and consult about gender and sexuality at the margins as well as how intersectional feminist, disability, critical race, and queer theories might better inform the field of psychology.
