About Me

I feel privileged to help you navigate life's challenges. When difficulties feel overwhelming, I guide individuals in transforming tough situations. We can collaborate to develop practical strategies and new perspectives, much like turning lemons into lemonade. My aim is to offer a supportive space where you can build resilience. Clients seeking a warm, collaborative path to discover their unique way forward will find a good match here.

Approach

Taking the idea of turning lemons into lemonade, I help you break overwhelming problems into practical, doable steps so progress feels possible and clear. In sessions from my Austin office or via secure online visits—offered in English and Bengali—we move at a pace that fits you, mixing focused skill-building, gentle challenge, and real-world practice between meetings. For attention, mood, or trauma-related struggles I use structured conversations and tools to improve daily functioning and relationships. People seeking steady, collaborative change often find this approach helpful.
