As a Certified Grief Educator, trauma-informed care provider, and professional coach, I specialize in supporting clients through life transitions, grief and loss, trauma, and anxiety. My approach to counselling is as unique as each individual, tailored specifically to your needs and goals. Grounded in empathy and a blend of evidence-based practices, I offer heart-centred care designed to meet you exactly where you are. I am also fluent in Punjabi.

I offer in person and Telehealth grief therapy in CT and accept Aetna, Husky, Cigna and Anthem BCBS insurance and private pay including a sliding scale fee.  Evening appointments available. I have been doing grief therapy with children and adults for over 25 years and have personal experience with the loss of a parent and sibling.

Asking for help is one of the toughest and scariest things to do. This is a journey that we take together and my role is to help guide you on that journey and be with you so that you are not alone. Together we will uncover what is at the root of your distress, explore old patterns you’re holding onto, and focus on your strengths and resiliency moving forward. I am here to support you through compassionate, non-judgmental counselling to guide you in your healing. We all need this – to be seen, to be vulnerable, to feel safe to share ourselves in order to get the help we need in order to move forward.

Throughout our lives, we receive many messages from our families and society that influence the ways we see ourselves. I’m committed to helping you explore the beliefs that no longer serve you. I’m here to help you uncover who you really are and want to become.

We will work together to challenge some of the negative thoughts you may be having, increase your awareness to some of the behaviour patterns that may be contributing to your struggles as well as provide tools and strategies to increase resilience to feel confident, grateful and be your best self.

I offer individual counselling to adults who are struggling with depression, anxiety, and grief and loss.

I offer a free 20-30 minute initial consultation, if interested, send me an email!
