Culturally-attuned counselling and therapy for local, international & multicultural individuals

My calling to become a counsellor came from my own experiences of childhood trauma and the healing journey that followed. I know firsthand how transformative therapy can be – and how vulnerable it feels to be on the other side of the couch. These experiences shape the way I show up for my clients – with curiosity, empathy, understanding, respect, and genuine care.

As a South Asian woman who has lived equally between the East and West and grew up as a third-culture kid in international schools, I’ve navigated many identities and have felt underrepresented and misunderstood within the mental health system. This fuels my passion for culturally attuned counselling, where your identity, background, beliefs, and unique circumstances, are honored and understood, so you feel seen, heard, and supported. I believe in creating a safe and non-judgmental space where you never have to justify or minimize who you are.

I hold a Master’s Degree in Counselling (Honors) from Monash University (Australia), a Bachelor's Degree in Psychology from George Washington University (USA), and am a Provisional Clinical Member of the Singapore Association for Counselling. I bring both personal insight and professional expertise to my practice, and I continuously engage in professional supervision and pursue further training to deepen my skills.

My goal is to help you understand what you are experiencing, why it's happening, and how to move beyond it, so that you can live a life aligned with your values and goals. You are the expert in your own life, and my role is to offer compassionate support and validation, and at times, challenge you, as you explore, process, and reconnect with yourself. Together, we’ll rewrite the narratives that may be holding you back and create a path forward filled with meaningful change, intention, ease, and space for breathing and self-care.

Before becoming a counsellor, I spent a decade in public relations and marketing across corporate, boutique, and government sectors. I gained valuable insights into communication styles, human behavior, and the pressures associated with demanding jobs. This gives me a real understanding of the challenges many of my clients face, particularly when it comes to finding and maintaining emotional and relational balance.

Outside the therapy room, I enjoy cooking, exploring restaurants, Pilates, traveling, and spending time with family, friends, and my adorable cat, Ponzu. These joys, especially when shared with loved ones, are how I unwind and practice self-care.
